Three Kingdoms

  『I'm going to war. 』

   Fei Qian said slowly.

  Huang Yueying was packing her little clothes, when she heard the words, she gave her hands a pause, and then hesitated, as if wondering if her ears heard it wrong, "Husband, what are you talking about?" 』

  Cai Yan gave birth to a boy, which can be regarded as the fulfillment of Cai Yan's long-cherished wish. Although Huang Yueying's mind was more or less messy, she still packed some supplies for Cai Yan, and they were all clothes passed down from the older children.

   Most of them are diapers.

   Dahan is not like later generations, there are finished diapers. For newborns, new fabrics cannot be used as diapers. It must be the kind of cloth that has been washed softer so that it will not scratch the tender skin of infants.

  『I said, I am going to war. ’ Fei Qian repeated.

  『…』 Huang Yueying lowered her head and started to fold the clothes again, 『Got it. You can rest assured at home. 』

   Fei Qian watched as Huang Yueying folded the small piece of clothing in her hand, opened it, folded it again, and opened it again...

   Fei Qian stepped forward and held Huang Yueying's hand.

  Huang Yueying's hands were cold and trembling.

  『There is a problem in the Western Regions...』 Fei Qian said calmly, 『I have to go there. 』

   Fei Qian didn't explain Lu Bu's related issues to Huang Yueying, nor did he say much about the political aspects of the Western Regions, but Fei Qian could still feel Huang Yueying's worry.

  『I asked Tai Shi Ziyi to accompany me. Fei Qian said with a smile, "Although there are many states in the Western Regions, they don't actually have much combat power. If you attack their leaders, the rest of the people are not worried." Not to mention the one in the workshop...』

   Feiqian said something in a low voice, Huang Yueying froze for a moment, "Didn't you say it's still not perfect? Husband, do you want to use it in the Western Regions first? 』

   Feiqian nodded, "Just try it out. 』

  Huang Yueying thought for a moment, held Fei Qian with her backhand, and said in a low voice: "Then husband, you must remember to stand far away!" Last time... the last time the craftsman was careless and injured a lot of people...』

   Fei Qian nodded, "I know. 』

  Huang Yueying raised her head and stared blankly at Fei Qian for a while, then bumped her head against Fei Qian's chest, and said sullenly, "Go ahead." 』

"ah? ’ Fei Qian didn’t react, “We still need to prepare for the expedition…”

  In these years, it is definitely impossible to say anything about moving in with bags, even small troops. When a large army wants to move, it needs a lot of preparations. It is already very extreme to be able to gather and start within three to five days. For some feudal dynasties that were slow to prepare, it may have been a year since ordering, concentration, and deployment.

   Huang Yueying gritted her little white teeth, "I mean, I want you to go and talk to sister Cai too!" Also, isn't that Qiang girl of yours also pregnant? Let me say it by the way, so as not to get pregnant, and blame me later...』

  『…』 Fei Qian swallowed a mouthful of saliva, not daring to say anything, and walked out sullenly.

  Fei Qian could see that Huang Yueying was actually very uncomfortable, and this discomfort had not lasted for a day or two. For Huang Yueying, it's not just about giving out lollipops for others to lick, the key is that after giving out lollipops, she needs to put on a big appearance, so that she can fully show the demeanor of a family heroine.

  When a woman doesn't have any complaints about her man, most of them won't have any emotions.

  So this is a good thing now?

  The fingers on the strings stopped, and Cai Yan frowned slightly.

   Fei Qian had no choice but to repeat the original words.

Because of pregnancy, Cai Yan has gained a whole circle of fat now, and her chin is chubby. She was quite happy when Fei Qian came, but before she finished playing the song, she heard Fei Qian said that she was going to go to war, and she suddenly felt mixed , the eye sockets were a little red, and tears dripped down.

  『Ah…』 When Cai Yan realized that he was crying, he turned his head hastily, not wanting Fei Qian to see him crying.

  Fei Qian stepped forward and put his hand on Cai Yan's shoulder.

  Cai Yan's voice was a little muffled, "I'm not... I don't know why I'm crying..."

   Fei Qian patted Cai Yan's shoulder lightly, "I understand. 』

  Cai Yan controls her emotions very well on weekdays, and she is seldom angry. Now it is only caused by the disorder of human hormones after pregnancy.

Fei Qian diverted the topic, "That boy Zhen, he is basically on the road now, but he will still slack off occasionally, and then you have to pay more attention...Girl, it's time to be enlightened now, you can't spend all day Playing wood with Yueying... It's best to teach separately, or else I won't be able to sit still with Zhen'er...』

  Children are always easy to be arrogant, and have the instinct to follow older children, and then they will be very sad when they are rejected. Before Cai Yan was pregnant, she didn't know about having a boy or a girl, so she was more or less worried about gains and losses, so she didn't have the heart to take the girl with her. Now that the fruit is ripe, she should pick up what was left behind.

   Regarding education, Cai Yan should have done a good job.

  Cai Yan nodded, then leaned back slightly, leaned on Fei Qian, snuggled up for a moment and said, "Is your husband staying here at night?" I will make soup for my husband...」

  『…』 Fei Qian was a little embarrassed, but still said, 『I still have to go...well, go to Yami’s side, she just got pregnant...』

  Cai Yan slowly sat up straight, with drooping eyebrows and eyes, "Oh. Then you go. 』

Fei Qian came out disgruntled again, turned left, turned left again, then turned right. After entering the small courtyard, she met Yami head-on. His eyes sparkled, "I heard you're going to war?" take me! I can shoot arrows, and I can also chop people! I'll help you! 』

  『…』 Fei Qian didn’t know what to say for a while, 『You...you are pregnant! 』

  Yami patted her belly, "Isn't it bulging yet?" Put it inside and you can't lose it. What are you afraid of? ! When my mother was pregnant with me, she went to war! 』

  『…』 Fei Qian was speechless, and after a while he said seriously, 『No. 』

  Yami immediately narrowed her eyes, shook her hands, threw away Feiqian like a rag, turned her head and walked back.

  Fei Qian reluctantly followed, and sat down in the hall.

  Yami squinted her eyes solemnly, sitting upright, not speaking.

   Fei Qian was silent for a moment, "Do you want to write a letter to your mother?" I should pass Longyou. 』

"good! ’Yami suddenly seemed to be alive again, but soon withered like an eggplant beaten by frost, “But I don’t know many words…”

  Qiang people do not have their own writing. In other words, when the Qiang language had not yet formed a system, it was interrupted and affected by Huaxia who was one step ahead. Therefore, the Qiang people have Qiang language, but no writing. This is like the fact that many regions in later generations have different dialects, but there is no writing system corresponding to the dialects, or even if there is, it is fragmented and incomplete.

  『Hey...Come here, get your pen and ink! ’ Fei Qian didn’t bother to tell Yami to read more and learn more characters, ‘You tell me, I’ll write it for you. 』

"OK! Yami immediately moved closer, "Ah, then can I... speak ill of you in the letter?" 』

   Fei Qianba smacked his lips, "You can say it, but I don't have to write it. 』

"ah! How can that work! ’ Yami said, ‘I’d better ask someone else to write it! 』

  Although she said so, Yami was still sitting beside Feiqian after the present person brought the pen and ink, babbling about her longing for her hometown and what she had seen and heard in Chang'an...

  The news that the hussars were about to go on an expedition was not only passed on in the yamen of the hussars' government, but also spread among the three assistants in Chang'an.

  The army needs to be assembled, and the logistics needs to be prepared. These actions cannot completely avoid the sight of others, nor can they be completely separated from ordinary people. The huge amount of writing, carrying all kinds of people and things, created a violent storm in the Sansuke area of ​​Chang'an.

  The dark clouds of war rolled over, and then it was as if a boulder had been dropped in a calm deep pool, and the waves that spewed out instantly spread along the water surface, and the ripples spread.

   Heluo.

  Yang Biao sits in Sizhi Hall.

  The old people sitting here had withered, and now it was Yang Biao's turn to sit here by himself.

   And he gradually became old as if the essence had been absorbed by Sizhitang.

This is not a supernatural or ghost, but the aging that most people will inevitably appear when they let go of their power and no longer hold positions. Moreover, there is no beauty care in Dahan, and most people enter the state of rapid aging once they pass forty. The key point is that if you can live to sixty, you can call yourself a long life.

  Yang Biao was sitting quietly when suddenly Yang Xiu hurried in from outside the courtyard and prostrated himself in the hall.

  The hurried footsteps represented Yang Xiu's excited mood, and the dust raised by his coming was like blooming excitement, "My lord father! Hussars want to conquer the Western Regions! 』

Yang Biao straightened his back abruptly, and was about to stand up, but because he had been sitting for a long time, his body swayed a little, so he fell down again, leaning on the table, and let out a long breath, "The Western Regions... really is a mess." up? 』

  Yang Xiu slapped his hands, "It must be so! This hussar was hiding it before... Hehe, now, he can't hide it anymore! This time, the hussars really suffered! 』

  For Fei Qian, the Yang family does not have much affection.

Not to mention Yang Biao, Yang Xiu never got any advantage in front of Fei Qian, even if Yang Xiu deliberately pretended to be humble, dull, or even pretended to be crazy, except for getting Fei Qian's suspicious eyes, there was no benefit for him. No.

  The key is that Yang Biao and Yang Xiu are not stupid.

  If the Yangs and his sons were fools, then maybe they would feel at ease in Heluo, guarding a dilapidated Luoyang City, living their own small life in peace, and muddling along.

  It's a pity that they are not stupid, so they know that the Heluo area is just a buffer zone deliberately set aside by Fei Qian and Cao Cao.

   Yang and his son don't feel much pleasure in this kind of day when they have to rely on others for their left and right, and they may be subverted anytime and anywhere.

  Being aggrieved for a long time, over time, will inevitably turn into resentment.

  Hate the injustice of the sky, the injustice of the earth, and the injustice of people.

  So when it was known that Feiqian was in chaos in the Western Regions and had to go out to fight, it was inevitable to gloat.

  The two looked at each other and laughed loudly, causing the dust on the Sizhi Hall to fall down.

  After a while, the laughter stopped, and the sorrow was like dust floating up, no matter how flamboyant it was when it flew up, it still had time to fall after all. Fei Qian went to the Western Regions, and perhaps the balance between things might be broken. Once the balance between east and west is broken, the Heluo Yang family will bear the brunt.

what to do?

  『Father, my child…』 Yang Xiu pondered, 『Would you like to get in touch with…? 』

  Yang Biao raised his head, looked at the plaque of Sizhitang, and was silent for a long time. If it weren't for the slight trembling of his beard, maybe he looked more like a statue than a person, "Not right. 』

"Um? Yang Xiu raised his eyebrows and said, "My lord father means..."

  『Based on what I saw about the hussars...』Yang Biao faintly revealed some doubts in the wrinkles on his face. After a while, he said slowly, "It shouldn't be like this..."

  Yang Biao didn't finish his sentence, but the meaning he expressed was very clear.

  He remembered what happened in Pingyang back then.

  At that time, Yang Biao once thought that he had pinched Fei Qian to death, and when he was about to pick the peach, he was bitten by the peach. Since then, Yang Biao has been cautious about Fei Qian's affairs. Who knows if the thing that looks like a peach in front of him is pretending to be something?

  『My lord father means that the hussars should have their backs, so that they won’t be so…worried? ’Yang Xiu also thought for a while, and used a relatively neutral word, ‘But it’s not Fei Hussars who are in trouble now, but Lu Fengxian, the guardian of the Western Regions! Is this Lu Fengxian... just a warrior..."

  Yang Xiu thinks that Fei Qian is really resourceful, but there are pig teammates!

  For a pig, what strategy can one expect?

   Now that Fei Qian is going to the Western Regions, it is not Fei Qian's problem, but Lu Bu's problem. It is true that Fei Qian seldom makes mistakes, but it does not mean that the people under him also do not make mistakes, let alone that the pigs under him also do not make mistakes.

  『What you said also makes sense...』 Yang Biao nodded, "But... we should not be in a hurry... because there must be someone who is more anxious than us..."

  Yang Xiu took a breath, "Understood. 』

  The father and son stopped talking, and sat quietly in Sizhitang, like two statues, or two spiders sitting in the middle of the web.

   There are indeed people who are more anxious than Yang and his son.

  After the news reached Shandong, the area around Xu County was almost boiling.

   It's not just ripples, it's more like boiling water.

  Puffing hot steam, splashing around.

  『Send someone to inform General Le that the Hanoi recruit battalion should gather at Chenliu in ten days! 』

"yes! 』

  『Yingchuan Workshop has launched an additional plan. Starting today, all craftsmen will not be allowed to take vacations, and all craftsmen will build equipment! 』

  『Only! 』

  『The number of cavalry and horses is counted, and the forage verification must not be neglected! 』

"clear! 』

   It was like a chain reaction. When Guanzhong Changan moved, Shandong also moved involuntarily.

  The continuous orders flowed out of the Shangshutai like flowing water, and then spread around. The orderlies with the recognition flags on their backs eagerly occupied the middle sections of all the roads. The orderlies who came and went would even meet each other on the cross streets, and then they would not care about abusing or investigating who was the main responsibility and who was the secondary responsibility. The first thing he did when he got up was to feel the order on his body, and hurried to the next stop.

Throughout Shandong, from north to south, the generals of the Cao Clan and Xiahou Clan gathered together. Those with serious faces either led the troops to conduct drills, inspected military supplies, or patrolled places. Everyone had a smile on their faces. A serious look, the smile seems to have been temporarily erased from their lives, leaving only seriousness and tension.

  There is no way not to be nervous...

Even the clerks in the prime minister's mansion were equally nervous, coming in and out, carrying documents, passing orders, or collecting all the clues, just to provide them to the few big figures in the main hall of the prime minister's mansion. Evaluate, review, reference.

The prices in the market inadvertently increased, and then the shop assistants walked out of the shop again and again, took down the water plate, wiped off the original price, and wrote down the new price, which caused a new burst of wailing, and then another burst of wailing. Looting.

  『Hussars are going to the Western Regions! 』

  『Have you heard? Someone is going to conquer the Western Regions...』

  People in the market and countryside are also passing news to each other, and then they are frowning and sighing, "I can't live through this day..."

   Maybe it was because the walls of the imperial palace were too high, or maybe it was because the walls of the imperial palace were too thick. When this affected the ripples in Shandong, it can be said that Liu Xie got the news at the end.

  Liu Xie was silent, and waved his hand to let the little yellow door go out.

  He stood up, with his hands behind his back, like a little old man, wandering around in the empty palace hall.

  The main hall was quiet, and there was a rustling sound when the curtain was shaken.

  The sound of Liu Xie's footsteps echoed in the hall, but he couldn't rush out of the door of the hall. He seemed to be trapped in the hall, wandering back and forth, circling unconsciously.

  Everything he did, was destroyed again...

   Again.

  Liu Xie just made an appearance of being pro-farmer, and called the old farmers to do the test field. Liu Xie went to the experimental field as often as possible, or summoned officials to study, or consulted local old farmers, and from time to time he went to the field to work in person, for what? Is it really for those few acres of land, or for the few bites of Zhuang He in the field?

  However, the sweat and prestige gained before are not worth mentioning and vulnerable to the news from Guanzhong.

  Now Zhuang He in the experimental field has not seen any results, so naturally there is no way to attract more public attention.

  The whole of Shandong is now staring, listening, and paying attention to the changes in Guanzhong. Who cares that Liu Xie is farming?

  The setting sun fell, and the bright red brilliance shone at Liu Xie's feet.

  It seems extremely bright and golden, but the sun will set in a short time, and the rest is silence and coldness.

"ah…"

   Liu Xie angrily swept the things on the table to the ground. Those messy things, jumping on the wooden floor, making hollow sounds...
