As we enter mid-May, the heat in Guanzhong begins to rise.
Especially since May, there has not been a drop of rain for half a month.
The hot breath permeated the land of Guanzhong, and many dark, hazy clouds floated leisurely in the blue sky, slowly crawling over.
The strong dry wind kept blowing, but it could not drive away the heat.
The scorching sunlight hit the earth directly, and the cicada hid under the leaves and began to scream strangely, which made people a little upset.
But compared to Zhi Zhi, who can only disturb his ears, the seven-year-old Shuang Shuang and Ah Chong are the two most troublesome demons in the Feng family.
The two siblings would get itchy if they didn't fight for three days.
Especially Ah Chong, he doesn't know whether there is such a metaphysical thing as bloodline suppression.
Anyway, every time I fight with my sister, I lose.
Then……
"Wow wow wow..." Wiping tears, he ran in, hugged Feng Junhou's legs, and first rubbed his face on Feng Junhou's clothes a few times.
Then he raised his head and complained with aggrieved face:
"Sir, she stole my Trojan horse again!"
Feng Junhou looked at his son's nasal mucus being dragged onto his face, and he sighed with despair:
"who?"
"Who else can it be? It's..."
Just as Ah Chong was about to speak, the door became dark, and the Feng Mansion's magical beast appeared at the door.
Ah Chong was only halfway through his words when he subconsciously swallowed them back and got up first before speaking.
"what happened?"
General Guan Da glanced at him and asked.
"Well, I don't know either. Ah Chong said someone robbed his Trojan horse."
Feng Junhou told the truth.
General Guan looked at Ah Chong.
"It's my sister, she's robbing me again."
In front of General Guan, Ah Chong quickly replaced "she" with "Ajie".
"It's worthless! Someone robbed something, and I couldn't find a way to get it back. I ran back crying!"
General Guan scolded, "It's no use to be the son of the Feng family! Can't I learn from your master?"
Ah Chong was scolded so much that he lowered his head in shame and muttered:
"I can't beat my sister..."
"What are you afraid of? Come, let me teach you. If you do this, if you do this again..."
General Guan stretched out his hand, moved it twice in the air, and demonstrated several movements.
Feng Junhou looked at the mother and son, raised his head and sighed, closing his eyes and saying nothing.
A little head popped up at the door and peeked inside.
Seeing Ah Chong asking his mother to secretly turn on the stove, they both opened their eyes wide and cursed silently: "How shameless!"
Then he stretched out his hand, imitated his mother's example, flipped it in the air a few times, and began to learn quietly outside the door.
Ah Chong, who had no idea that his opponent had seen through the details, thanked his mother and went out happily after getting familiar with these moves.
It seemed like he was out for revenge.
Feng Junhou looked at his son's leaving figure with a little pity in his eyes.
Then he looked at General Guan expressionlessly.
General Guan knew what he meant, smiled indifferently, and explained:
"I just came over there. This matter was indeed done wrong by both parties, so I'll teach Ah Chong a few more tricks and let him regain his face. It's not considered partiality."
Feng Junhou raised his chin and gestured to the door:
"Both of us have been watching just now."
Shuangshuang's talent in martial arts training is indeed higher than that of Ah Chong. Shuangshuang disappeared before Ah Chong could practice, indicating that she had already learned it.
When Ah Chong goes to find a place at this time, he will most likely end up dead.
General Guan nodded, even more indifferent:
"Look, I didn't say not to let her see it. Ah Chong is not careful. That's his problem. No one else is to blame."
With that said, General Guan glanced at Feng Junhou:
"There is a saying in the art of war: if you know yourself and the enemy, you can fight a hundred battles without danger. Now both of you know yourself and the enemy. Ah Chong is not keeping things secret. It is reasonable for him to lose."
"Our Feng family is a general family after all. If he doesn't even understand this, then let him learn a lesson."
Feng Junhou was speechless.
What you said makes sense, but I am speechless.
"Since Shuangshuang made a mistake in this matter, and now Ah Chong suffers, why do I feel that something is wrong?"
"What's wrong? Ah Chong is at a disadvantage if she suffers. I didn't say I won't punish both. I just let her do a few more questions tonight."
General Guan sat next to Feng Junhou and said casually.
When it comes to learning, Shuangshuang and Ah Chong have opposite talents.
Ah Chong can probably laugh at his sister tonight.
Then tomorrow, both of them will find an excuse to beat their brother.
The cycle of ridicule and fighting continues...
As General Guan said, he saw Feng Junhou bending down and playing with his trouser legs.
He just said that he didn't listen, so he was so angry that he reached out and kicked him:
"You are the child's adult. Why are you telling me about the child?"
"I used to say that I was often away from home on military expeditions, but now my child is with me every day. Are you too lazy to even say that?"
Feng Junhou said "ouch" and sat up straight with a grin on his face: "You hurt me!"
"Did you hear what I said?"
"I'm listening." Feng Junhou stretched out his leg and signaled, "When Ah Chong came in just now, he wiped his eyes and nose with my robe."
"I just wanted to see where the boy wiped it. Look, it's all done."
"Ugh!" General Guan looked disgusted, "How disgusting!"
"That's also disgusting."
"go!"
General Guan rushed forward and scratched him twice.
"What are you doing? It's broad daylight and the door isn't closed yet!"
Feng Junhou's expression changed, and he quickly resisted with all his strength.
"Take off your clothes and change! This is the backyard and there are no outsiders."
General Guan said, his eyes brightening, "Isn't it disgusting to wear it?"
Feng Junhou was furious: "It's disgusting, why are you so close?"
However, no matter how strong the resistance was, it was eventually suppressed by General Guan.
The cry of cicadas outside the window suddenly became weak.
Just like Feng Junhou lying in the room, he could only breathe.
General Guan lay next to him, gently waving his fan to fan him, his laughter filled with sweetness and pleasure:
"It's been hot these days, and both of them are making trouble. Ah Chong is making trouble, and Ah Shun is making trouble too. I don't have time to sleep with A Lang at night. I feel really sorry."
Feng Junhou closed his eyes and said nothing.
Feng Mansion has always had Yin rising and Yang declining, Yin strong and Yang weak.
It was Feng Junhou who was the one who started this, so you can't blame Ah Chong.
"What are you thinking about?"
"Want sleep."
"Oh, okay, I'll fan you. You can squint for a while. I'll call you when it's dinner time."
Feng Junhou let out a long sigh:
"How long will it take for Shuangshuang and Ah Chong to fight?"
"What's the meaning?"
"I'm afraid Ah Chong will come over and cry again later."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sudden "bang bang bang" knock on the door outside, and at the same time there was Ah Chong's crying voice:
"My lord, my lord!"
Having children is trouble!
Junhou and his wife quickly got up from the couch and got dressed in a hurry.
"Don't go out!"
General Guan acted quickly and directly pushed Feng Junhou back to the couch.
Then he got off the bed, cleaned himself up, and then his face became serious, and the spirit body of Feng Mansion's sacred beast returned to its place.
He walked around the screen, straightened his back, and opened the door with a bang, his eyes sharp:
"As the eldest son of the Feng family, how do you look like this?"
Ah Chong didn't expect a tiger descending from the mountain to emerge from inside. He was so frightened that he took two steps back: "Mom?"
Mom, you haven’t left yet? Still close the door?
"what happened?"
"Sister, she hit me again."
"I taught you so much and you still can't beat her?"
"What mom taught me just now, she seems to know how to..."
"Don't worry, I will punish her tonight."
Ah Chong's face lit up with joy. With his mother taking action, things were settled.
But General Guan sneered:
"I gave you a chance and you didn't use it. Now go and practice horse riding for me!"
"ah?"
"Ah what? Go quickly!"
"oh."
Ah Chong walked away dejectedly.
Feng Junhou, who was hiding in the inner room, saw General Guan coming back with affectionate expressions on his face and quickly closed his eyes again.
"It's so hot, should Alang take off his clothes before going to bed?"
Feng Junhou quickly opened his eyes and refused:
"No, no, no, Ah Chong's fuss will make you sleepless. Besides, it will be bad if the child comes here again."
"Right."
General Guan nodded, lay down next to Feng Junhou again, and chatted:
"The imperial court sent a letter to Guanzhong two days ago, saying that it had agreed to Alang's recommendation to appoint Wang Zishi (Wang Xun) and Huang Yizhi (Huang Chong) as governors of Liang and prefects of Yuexun."
"Well. Now that the territory of the Han Dynasty has expanded so much, it's time to promote some people. The political achievements of these two people in Yuexun and Nanxiang are both top-notch, so it's their turn."
"The people of Xinghanhui can be considered successful now, right? These people will be Alang's helpers in the court from now on."
Feng Junhou felt the cool breeze fanned by General Guan and became a little confused:
"Any helper or no helper, it's all for the big man, but we all happen to be of the same mind."
"Isn't that right? Can we establish the Xinghan Association if we don't share the same goals?"
General Guan greatly agreed with this statement, and then said in Feng Junhou's ear:
"This Xinghan Association was established by Alang himself, and now it can be seen that it is bearing fruit."
"It's just that the situation is so good, I see why Ah Lang is a little restrained?"
When Feng Junhou heard General Guan's words, he finally opened his eyes. Are you waiting for me here?
He couldn't help but laugh and said:
"If you want to ask me any questions in the future, just ask first before doing anything else. You are tossing me so hard that I have lost all my strength. You just want to trick me? Tell me, is there someone who wants to pry for information from you?"
"Go!" General Guan pushed him, "I haven't slept with Alang at night for quite some time."
"Besides, can't I ask about the Xinghan Association?"
Zhang Xiaosi finally succeeded in ascending to the throne by relying on the royal family.
General Guan's heart was ringing with alarms, he must be consolidating his base.
After all, she had the upper hand in the battle with Zhang Xiaosi, and Xinghanhui played a big role in it.
"Okay, okay, of course. What do you want to ask, Mr. Xi?"
"There is a problem in Liangzhou. Just send Erlang to Liangzhou. Why does Alang want to go to war against the Xinghanhui throughout the Han Dynasty?"
Feng Junhou replied lazily: "The emperor is in charge, and the Xinghan Conference always has to show it."
"Oh, is it so?"
General Guan looked at him suspiciously.
After sharing the same bed for so many years, she had long been familiar with Feng Junhou's style of doing things.
As long as someone takes the initiative to suffer losses in the front, it must be to take greater advantage later.
This time the Xinghan Association made such a big concession, not only giving up the position of Nanxiang County Magistrate, but also taking the initiative to conduct a large-scale internal investigation of the Xinghan Association.
Just to show loyalty to the emperor?
General Guan didn't believe it.
But she remembered firmly that someone Feng told her on the couch that in the future, the Han Dynasty might be composed of three pillars: the royal family, the new rich, and the Prosperous Han Society.
Feng Junhou turned his head and saw General Guan's face written all over:
You're right, but I always feel like something's not quite right.
He had no choice but to sit up and said:
"Well, actually I do have other purposes."
I knew it!
General Guan asked: "What is the purpose?"
"My master once taught me to clean the house before inviting guests to dinner."
"ha?"
General Guan looked confused.
"Reviving the Han Dynasty requires the joint efforts of people with lofty ideals from all over the world. Now that the Han Dynasty has regained Guanzhong and merged the states with Hedong, the general trend has been achieved."
"So in the future, more and more people will come to share the cause of justice."
Feng Junhou stretched out his hands, gestured, and explained:
"But among these people, some may be sincere, or they may be just outsiders. The situation of the big man is stronger than that of the thieves, so they come to seek refuge."
"If the big man suffers any setbacks, some of them might want to attach themselves to thieves again."
Feng Junhou smiled and continued:
"So before we welcome people with lofty ideals from all over the world, we must first investigate our own internal problems to avoid being exploited by people with ulterior motives in the future."
When General Guan heard this, his eyes widened:
"I see, so this is called cleaning the house before treating guests to dinner?"
"right."
Taught by the master of the sect?
General Guan subconsciously touched his side.
Alas, I didn’t bring the notebook!
"Even if they are just outsiders, the great Han people are the orthodox people in the world. If they buy horse bones for a thousand pieces of gold, the court will definitely accept them."
"That is a matter for the imperial court, not for the Xinghan Society."
When Feng Junhou talked about business, his face began to calm down:
"It is precisely because there will be people like this in the imperial court in the future that I have to conduct an inventory of the Xinghan Hui and at the same time recommend people from the Xinghan Hui to enter the court."
"The Xinghan Society has done so much for the court, and they deserve it. Just because the court wants thousands of gold to buy bones, we can't let the meritorious ones rank behind the horse bones, right?"
"Then Nanxiang..."
"Nanxiang is not important. If I can create the first Nanxiang, I can create the second Nanxiang."
Feng Junhou shook his head, "The Xinghan Society's current focus should not be limited to Shu, but to the whole world."
"The world?"
"Yes, the mountains and rivers inside and outside are the barriers to the world, and Jiuyuan is the barrier to Guanzhong. These two places will be the focus of the Han Dynasty in the future."
Only at this moment can Feng Junhou express his deepest thoughts.
The more he talked, the more excited he became. He closed his right hand on his abdomen, and then waved it out, causing a faint sound of wind:
"The purpose of taking back the fist is to punch it out better. Xinghan will give up some things now so that it can better focus on these two places."
"Hoo ho ho!"
The tiger girl swung her fists in succession, causing the tiger to generate wind. The sound of the wind was much louder than Feng Junhou's fists: "Is that so?"
Feng Junhou glanced at the excited General Guan, and the excitement on his face suddenly faded.
His body slid down slowly, losing all interest:
"I'm tired and want to rest."
