The Reborn Lady is Farming

Chapter 369: Decide

  The emperor was still hesitating. The confession of General Yuan and Qi Xiuyuan arrived. The emperor just flipped it a little and threw it aside. This is what he wrote before. What he wanted to know was what General Yuan and Qi Xiuyuan thought now.

   And the two of them lived up to his expectations. Within two days, the flying pigeons on both sides came. General Yuan proposed to send troops, but Qi Xiuyuan proposed to defend the city.

  The two disagreed, and the emperor could still see General Yuan's eagerness and Qi Xiuyuan's cautiousness from the two notes.

The emperor was suddenly in a good mood and smiled: "General Yuan and Qi Xiuyuan sent troops together, but now it seems that they are not as harmonious as I thought." The emperor knocked on the table and ordered: "Let them shrink the front line, Listen to Qi Xiuyuan's wishes and defend the city that was captured, and don't send troops to the Jin Kingdom any more, as for their rewards and punishments, let's wait until the city is defended."

   The servant who served the emperor was slightly surprised, but he knew that the emperor wanted to send troops before, but at this time, he suddenly made up his mind and looked very happy. With the emperor's character, shouldn't it be very sad?

   However, although the emperor was gentle, he didn't dare to ask the question in his heart, he just bowed and retired.

The    emperor was naturally in a good mood, and it was okay that General Yuan really wanted to take back his homeland when he went north, or maybe he wanted to expand his power, but no matter what it was, he didn't want to follow his wishes.

Two years ago, no, it should be said that three years ago, he only had 130,000 soldiers and horses, but once he sent troops to the Jin Kingdom, and once again suppressed the rebellion, it actually rose to 210,000. After this time, he still didn't know him. How many more people will be added.

   Military power is not in his hands, how dare he let them grow bigger?

When Shen Mu knew that General Yuan had sent the emperor to the flying pigeons for battle, he could only stomp his feet and say, "Why are you so confused? We lost so many people before 200,000 soldiers and horses, how could we still be able to recover while defending the city? Continue to march north? What if the emperor listens to your words and sends troops on a large scale? Didn't you promise me to discuss it slowly?"

   "The soldiers defending the city can collect on the spot..."

  Shen Mu glared at General Yuan angrily, "Do you want the emperor to cut you off? Two hundred thousand soldiers and horses are enough for him to be taboo, but you still want to recruit soldiers and horses?"

  General Yuan suddenly stopped talking.

   "Alas—" Shen Mu sighed: "Forget it, the emperor may not agree to send troops. He has always liked to go against you for the past few years. Maybe it was your proposal that was rejected."

   General Yuan's face turned blue, "Is this worth your joy?"

  Shen Mu scratched his neck and said, "It's better than watching you go to your death." After he finished speaking, he walked away.

  While General Yuan and Qi Xiuyuan were waiting for the order from the Sage, they had gradually set up the border defenses. As soon as the edict arrived, Qi Xiuyuan delegated power to Jiang Ze and Mo Xiong, and brought a dozen or so guards back to Jingzhao Mansion.

The squires and rich people of Jingzhao Mansion lined up to welcome him in Hangu Pass, which surprised Qi Xiuyuan slightly, raised his eyebrows slightly at the gorgeous carriage at the front, and Rong Xuan took a step forward and said: " That is the head of the Li family in Chang'an County."

   Qi Xiuyuan raised his eyebrows slightly, "Longxi Li?"

Rong Xuan nodded with a smile, "Although the Li family was beaten to pieces, there is still some background. They are a famous family in Chang'an. Although the Jinbing persecuted them a lot after entering the customs, they never hurt their lives, so their strength is very strong. Well preserved."

  Qi Xiuyuan suddenly lost interest, and if he could get along with the golden people, he didn't feel the need to go out with them on purpose.

   It has been twenty years since Jingzhao Mansion left Da Zhou, and in twenty years, they have not had much power, and their hands are even shorter.

   But Qi Xiuyuan still dismounted from the horse with a peaceful face and met them, and then rejected the evening banquet.

   He has to get up early tomorrow to go on his way, where will he have time to drink with them?

  Li Jian watched Qi Xiuyuan leave, and also handed over to everyone, and turned back into the carriage to go home.

   The butler said hesitantly, "Master, what does this General Qi mean?"

   "What's the point? Look down on those of us who are lingering under the hoofs of golden soldiers." Li Jian slightly closed his eyes and said.

   "Can't you? I see that he is very sympathetic to ordinary people."

Li Jian's mouth curled into a mocking smile, "Naturally, he has a lot of pity on ordinary people, they have no ability to resist, they have suffered so much that they have to succumb to the golden soldiers, and half of the squires and local tyrants pay back, and they don't have much insight. , but our Li family is the Longxi Li family that has been inherited for nearly a thousand years. Even the Shu family who hangs on the tail of the family sacrificed their lives to escape with the emperor, but we traded with Jin Guo and survived safely. He can look up to it. us?"

   Li Jian's eyes were full of sadness and pain, "Qi Xiuyuan is fine, although he doesn't like us in his heart, he never laughs at us, and other aristocratic families, I'm afraid..."

The butler's expression changed. Although Emperor Sejong had repeatedly suppressed the aristocratic clan at the beginning of the Great Zhou Dynasty and enabled the Han clan, the aristocratic clan still had an advantage over the Han clan. Will there still be the Longxi Li family?

  Li Jian obviously thought of this too, but it's better to go back to Da Zhou than to float in the golden country.

   There are many children of school age at home, which is just the right time for marriage.

   "I heard that Qi Xiuyuan has not yet decided on a marriage."

  The housekeeper immediately understood and said, "I'll start inquiring when I go back."

  Li Jian was satisfied.

  Qi Xiuyuan didn't know that he thought about it so much just by looking at each other. He just briefly met the generals in the army and asked them to guard the gate. He went back to Xingzhou Mansion and moved the base camp to Jingzhao Mansion.

  Xingzhou, he only intends to leave a battalion to guard.

   After thinking about the candidates, he smiled at Rong Xuan: "I plan to recruit another army, expand the sixth battalion, and add more staff to the other five battalions."

  Rong Xuan smiled and said, "Do you have a suitable general?"

   "What do you think of Mu Shi?"

Rong Xuan was slightly taken aback, but it was reasonable, he nodded and said, "He has followed Haoran for two years, and he has also gone through a lot of battles. In addition to this battle of defending the city, he served as the sixth battalion, a soldier. They won't have an opinion."

   The most important thing is that these six battalions were built by Mu Shi, not from the other five battalions, but Mu Shi's achievements are still a little weak.

  Qi Xiuyuan obviously thought of this, and sighed: "Although the credit is a little thin, it can be accumulated in the future. We urgently need people now, so we can make an exception."

Rong Xuan couldn't help laughing, "You only said that you are paving the way for Haoran, can I still scold you?" Seeing Qi Xiuyuan's blushing face, he sighed and said, "You treat Haoran's father-in-law like this, how would you treat your future father-in-law? Wouldn't it be more filial?"

   Qi Xiuyuan directly kicked the person out.

   Rong Xuan, who jumped out of the door, couldn't help laughing.
