The "Women's Army" successfully captured Wugong County, and together with Hu County, they occupied two county seats in total. If other rebels are included, the rebels occupied a total of five or six county towns.

After occupying Wugong County, Li Zhiyun became a leisurely young man with nothing to do. Apart from letting Aunt Ying teach him how to ride a horse, he had nothing to do every day.

The third sister's military account is located in the county government office. That day, the third sister saw him wandering around in the county government office and said, "I have something here, please give it to Fang Xuanling for me."

After being introduced by Li Zhiyun, Fang Xuanling also joined the "Women's Army". He served as a secretary in the army, equivalent to the secretary-general in later generations, responsible for drafting orders and promulgating laws.

Li Zhiyun came to Fang Xuanling's residence and saw a carriage parked in the courtyard, which looked familiar. He looked at it carefully and remembered that the last time he and Liu Yinglian went to Pingchang Town, they took this carriage.

Li Zhiyun walked into the room excitedly and saw Liu Yinglian and Fang Xuanling sitting at the table talking. When they saw him coming in, they both stood up.

After greeting Li Zhiyun, he handed the paper in his hand to Fang Xuanling and said: "Master Fang, this is the twelve chapters of the contract with the people drafted by my sister. She asked you to revise it, make a hundred copies, and post it in the market."

Fang Xuanling is a person who works vigorously and resolutely. He said to Li Zhiyun: "Master Li, please help Fang to accompany my students. I will come when I go." After that, he walked out and hurried to Xikuoyuan.

Li Zhiyun calmly sat down on Fang Xuanling's seat. Liu Yinglian looked at him and smiled: "I heard from the teacher that you have done some great things recently, and everyone in the Women's Army is praising you!"

Li Zhiyun waved his hand and said: "It's just a little trick, what's the point?!..."

After lunch, Liu Yinglian asked the carriage to wait at the south gate of the county seat, and asked Li Zhiyun to accompany her to visit the market in Wugong County.

The two left Fang Xuanling's residence and walked along the street while chatting. The war in the county has subsided, and the streets have returned to their former liveliness. They had just walked for a while when Li Zhiyun heard someone calling his name. He looked up and saw the third sister and several guards standing across the street.

Li Zhiyun wanted Liu Yinglian to see his sister, but she was too shy and refused to go. In desperation, he had no choice but to walk over by himself.

"Who is that girl?"

"She is the daughter of Liu Hong, the minister of the DPRK."

When the third sister saw Liu Yinglian standing there looking this way, she waved to her to come over. When Liu Yinglian saw it, she could only walk over with a blushing face. When she came to Third Sister, Wanfu said, "Hello, Mrs. Chai!"

"Are you Lord Liu's daughter?"

Seeing Liu Yinglian nodding, the third sister smiled and said: "I have heard long ago that the daughter of the Liu family is beautiful, beautiful, intelligent and virtuous. When I saw it today, it turned out to be true! ... Miss Liu, the journey back is not peaceful, please be more careful! Wisdom! Yun, send Miss Liu off for me!" After the third sister finished speaking, she hurried away.

Watching the third sister's retreating figure, Liu Yinglian admired: "Your sister is so beautiful!"

"That's right." Li Zhiyun said proudly, "We in the Li family are all naturally beautiful and graceful!"

Liu Yinglian glanced at him and curled her lips...

After visiting the market, they walked out of the south gate. In addition to the carriage, there were more than a dozen guards waiting there outside the city gate. It turned out that Liu Yinglian insisted on coming to Wugong County to visit her teacher. Liu Hong was worried and sent more than a dozen nurses to protect her along the way. These nursing homes did not enter the city, but were waiting outside the city.

Before getting on the carriage, Liu Yinglian warned: "Master Li, since you have joined the army and your sword has no eyes, you must try to protect yourself!"

Seeing that she cared so much about him, Li Zhiyun felt very warm. He smiled and said: "I'm fine, you should also take care of yourself! We will meet again in Chang'an City soon!..."

After seeing Miss Liu off, Li Zhiyun returned to the city. He turned down South Street and was about to walk in the direction of the county government office. Suddenly, two men ten steps away caught his attention.

The two men were sneaky and looked around as they walked, and the back of one of them seemed familiar to him.

The two guys walked to an alley, and the man turned his head and looked back. Huh! Isn’t this a goldfish eye? Why did this guy get here?

Jinyuyan and his companions entered the alley, and Li Zhiyun followed them from a distance. They didn't go far before they entered a courtyard. Li Zhiyun knew who lived in this courtyard. It was Ma Sanbao's residence.

After the two entered the yard, they closed the door. Li Zhiyun took a few steps and ran to the courtyard door, peeking inside through the crack in the door. I saw two guys entering the house and closing the door immediately.

Why did Goldfish Eye come to Ma Sanbao? The door is still closed in broad daylight. Is there any secret? …

In fact, this is not the first time that Goldfish Eyes has come to Ma Sanbao. One night a few days ago, Ma Sanbao was drinking tea in the house when a man walked in. He took a look by candlelight, wasn't this Zhang Wuqi?

Zhang Wuqi and he were from the same village. They played together when they wore crotchless pants, and they had a close relationship. It's just that they haven't seen each other for many years.

Ma Sanbao stood up quickly and greeted: "Brother Wuqi, we are a rare guest! Come, sit down and have a cup of tea!" After that, he picked up the teapot and wanted to pour tea for him. Zhang Wuqi quickly stopped him and said, "Brother Sanbao, stop being busy, I'll introduce you to someone!" After that, he shouted towards the door: "Come in!"

Immediately afterwards, a person walked in from outside the door. Ma Sanbao Dingqing took a look, isn't this Mr. Qiao?

Jinyuyan is also an aristocratic son. His father is a high-ranking official in the imperial court and is still accompanying Yang Guang in Jiangdu. And Chai Shao also came from a famous family. The aristocratic sons in Chang'an City often interacted with each other. As the steward of Chai Mansion, Ma Sanbao naturally knew the goldfish eyes.

Goldfish Eyes held a folding fan in his hand and said, "Manager Ma, are you okay?" Ma Sanbao quickly returned the courtesy and said, "Young Master Qiao is so splendid that his noble feet are on humble soil! Come on, please take a seat!"

After the three of them sat down, Ma Sanbao poured tea for them. After putting down the teapot, he said in a tentative tone: "Master Qiao is here tonight. What do you want to teach me?"

Goldfish Eyes did not hide anything, and said bluntly: "I have been entrusted by General Zuo Yiwei, Yin Shishi, to persuade Mr. Ma to return from his lost ways and be loyal to the imperial court!"

Oh, are you here to be a lobbyist? Ma Sanbao lowered his head and drank tea without saying a word.

Goldfish Eyes smiled and said: "Is Manager Ma still waiting for Li Yuan to capture Chang'an City? To be honest, although Li Yuan has crossed the Yellow River, there is still Qu Tutong's 100,000 troops in Hedong County, which makes him unable to move! Besides, The emperor has issued an order for Dongdu to send a large army to encircle and suppress him. As soon as the Dongdu army arrives, Li Yuan will be unable to escape!..."

Goldfish Eyes gushed. Of course, being granted an official position and making a wish are also indispensable. "General Yin said that as long as Manager Ma surrenders to the court, he will immediately report to the king and appoint you as Yingyang Captain and Wugong County Duke."

Finally, Jinyuyan added: "Manager Ma, Qiao just learned from the report today that Chai Shao died in the battle in Hancheng!"

Before Jinyuyan and the others left, Ma Sanbao finally relaxed. He asked the other party to allow him to think about it for a few days.

After leaving Ma Sanbao's residence, Zhang Wuqi asked on the road: "Mr. Qiao, is Chai Shao really dead?" Goldfish Eyes sneered and said: "It doesn't matter whether Chai Shao is dead or not! Ma Sanbao is a dog of the Chai family, the owner of the family. This dog will not leave until it dies!”
