Su Changan finished Xia Fengxiang's and picked up the third bowl, but saw Xia Fengxiang looking at him.
However, when he noticed Su Changan looking at him, Xia Fengxiang averted his eyes.
Su Changan thought for a while: "Look at me secretly, do you think it has more flavor?"
Xia Fengxiang rolled his eyes and handed it over to feel for himself.
Su Changan chuckled, and then waved his hand: "Boss, have another bowl."
This shouting made those around him dumbfounded.
Be nice!
One bowl of this big pot of mutton soaked biscuits is enough for an adult man to hold. As a result, this girl already had two bowls and was eating her third bowl, and she wanted another bowl! If you keep eating these few bowls, won’t you be starved to death?
Each one of them, looking at the girl who was eating so deliciously and looking so good-looking, I was thinking, how long has it been since you last had a meal, but you don’t look like you’re starved of food!
Looking at the woman sitting opposite her with squinting eyes and a smile on her face, she looked happy and didn't try to persuade her at all. It was obvious that she had seen this scene too much and even thought that if you eat more, I would be happy!
But looking at the thin and slender girl who could be blown over by a little bit of wind, the way she eats is swallowing her saliva. What can I say, why are they looking at the mutton puff pastry they often eat? , it feels like such a delicacy!
Under everyone's surprised eyes
After Su Changan ate five bowls, he left with Xia Fengxiang.
The abdomen was injured before, and there were too many things to avoid. Even when they arrived at Qingquan Palace, although they could eat some food, Xia Fengxiang still refused to let Su Changan eat more.
After finally completely ignoring himself, Su Changan is starting to become more and more wanton!
After leaving the stall, Su Changan and Xia Fengxiang didn't say where they were going, and just walked casually.
Passing by a snack shop selling sugar-coated noodles, Su Changan bought two more, but at the same time, he also heard that the old man of the Cui family was celebrating his birthday in two days.
After Su Changan took a bite of the snack, before he could say anything, Xia Fengxiang frowned and helped Su Changan wipe his mouth, then glared at Su Changan, worried! I have to watch from the side while I have a meal. What will I do if this person is gone?
Su Changan chuckled: "I am the only one who can take care of you like this. What will you do without me?"
Hearing that Su Changan actually said this, Xia Fengxiang couldn't help but laughed in anger, and immediately cursed: "Then I will be a lot less angry every day!"
After saying that, Xia Fengxiang glared at Su Changan.
In fact, there is another sentence: "You should be less flattering and have many, many, many more things." But if you say this, you don't know where Su Changan's tail will be!
So it definitely can’t be said.
Seeing how cute his wife was, Su Changan couldn't help pinching his face, and then asked: "Do you want to give me a gift to the old lady of the Cui family? After all, it is the Duke's mansion."
Xia Fengxiang nodded: "Well, don't worry about it, my aunt will take care of it and send it over. After all, it can't be too good. Moreover, the order you gave to the Qi family so that they will not pester the Cui family is actually enough to make Cui Yan Happy."
But after saying that, Xia Fengxiang rolled his eyes at Su Changan: "Which queen gave such an edict, just say, 'If you don't like people, don't stalk them.' You are such a talented woman, you don't need to use any words. "
Su Changan was helpless: "Talented man."
But seeing Xia Fengxiang's narrow eyebrows, Su Changan sighed: "Talented girl."
But after saying that, Su Changan said: "It's just one sentence, how should I word it."
Xia Fengxiang sighed, but also smiled, and just looked back at Maomao: "The old man of the Cui family is probably coming to find Maomao."
Su Changan thought of Cui Yu's special visit to him before, nodded and said nothing more.
Xia Fengxiang didn't talk about this either.
At this time, a child smiled and ran forward with a candied haws of sugarcane. Halfway through, he looked behind him and shouted: "Dad, mother, hurry up, there are blacksmiths over there!"
"Come on, come on, run slower and don't hit anyone!" A young couple smiled and chased after them.
After seeing this scene, Xia Fengxiang smiled, but then he remembered something and his face became much more solemn. He said softly: "We are about to get news from Yan Di."
……
Ps: Happy New Year, one more update. I slept a little too much today, so it’s late.
Chapter 371 Literati, wearing armor, going into battle
In the governor's house in Tanzhou City, Du Yu was sitting in front of the study. Du Yu was the governor of Biejia. In other words, in the entire Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures, the highest person in a state was Biejia, and there was no establishment of the governor.
The storm is coming and the wind is filling the building.
Looking at the dark sky and the biting cold wind, if it were Du Yu before, he would have to write a few sentences to look at the weather.
Something like, 'If it doesn't rain or snow again, the scenery in my hometown will be the most unique.'
But now Du Yu has a frown on his face. From the time Weishan left almost ten days ago until now, Du Yu's eyebrows have not relaxed.
This also made Du Yu, who originally looked like a goat, look a little more ferocious and solemn in addition to his original treacherous appearance. Unexpectedly, he saw it and thought that Master Du had finally exposed his true nature and started to show his violent temper.
Weishan had been away for more than ten days, and except for a letter sent on the fifth day saying that everything was fine in Jizhou, no letter had been sent back so far.
Counting the days, if we go from Tanzhou to Jizhou, stay in Jizhou for a few days, then go to Zhuozhou, and then return, we should be back. Even if we are delayed on the way, according to Du Yu's caution about Weishan In my mind, someone should be sending a message, but now there is no news.
And they sent two groups of people one after another, but none of them came back.
This made Du Yu frown even more.
And for some reason, Du Yu became more and more uneasy. It was not because the weather in Tanzhou was getting colder and colder, nor was it because God had suppressed a heavy snowfall, which would cause disaster to the people.
If there was a snowstorm, Du Yu had prepared a plan in the summer, and had stored cotton clothes, quilts and other winter items in several large warehouses, just in case there would be a snowstorm.
Therefore, this matter will not make this master who used to drink wine, laugh and recite poems with Li Jiulang, Wen Daoji and others uneasy.
"Nowadays, many people in Yandi are worried. Mr. Du in Tanzhou is free to watch this windy and cold weather."
But it was at this time that Du Yu heard the voice from the door of the courtyard.
Turning around and looking over, he saw a scholar, wearing a black gown, about the same age as Du Yu.
Seeing this man, Du Yu's original sad face suddenly changed, and he stood up with a smile: "You Lian!"
After waving his hand to the servant who led the way, Du Yu quickly stepped forward with a look of joy and surprise.
The middle-aged Confucian scholar named You Lian saluted Du Yu and then looked at Du Yu with a smile.
Du Yu had a look of surprise on his face and pulled You Lian towards the house: "Why are you here! We haven't seen each other for two years since we parted ways in Suizhou Zongshuai's tent!"
You Lian waved his hand and said with a smile: "Let's not talk about these polite words between you and me for now, take a look at this first."
With that said, You Lian took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Du Yu: "This is a letter stamped with the seal of General Meng Qin."
When Du Yu heard this, he looked at the seal of the letter and the rubbing on it, frowned, and then looked at You Lian: "Aren't you joining the army under Commander Zong? Why did you tempt Marshal Qin?"
You Lian shook his head: "Read it first before talking. The content of the letter is true, and it is related to whether there will be war in Daxia."
When Du Yu heard this, his expression immediately became solemn. He looked at You Lian again, but without saying anything, he just opened the envelope and looked at it.
Just a moment!
Du Yu looked horrified, took a deep breath, and looked at You Lian in disbelief, but immediately, a sudden realization appeared in his eyes.
You Lian was originally a member of Zongze's side Lu Shi and joined the army. However, a few months ago, he received an imperial decree and was transferred to Meng Qin's side Lu Shi to join the army. His responsibility was not to supervise, but to assist.
Together with Li Jiulang, Wen Daoji, Shen Yue, Du Yu, Cui Yu, Zhang Gu and others, they were the two Jinshi in the same period.
Seeing the change in Du Yu's expression, You Lian asked, "Were you suspicious before?"
Du Yu did not answer, but continued to lower his head to read the letter in his hand. He read it several times and looked at You Lian: "Seriously?! This matter is not a child's play!"
You Lian was helpless: "The handsome seal is on it, why should I lie to you? Moreover, this is a matter that collapses the sky. How dare I forge it?"
Du Yu looked at You Lian in shock, and asked after a while: "Your Majesty, what are you doing now?"
You Lian said: "For the following crimes, conspiracy to rebel, colluding with foreigners to disturb our Daxia, and plotting to kill the king, any of the crimes are punishable by death."
After saying that, You Lian looked at Du Yu: "The land of Yan has been run by the traitor Xia Chenfeng for decades, and many officials have long become his confidants. Even the army of Yan has been disobedient and has become the King of Yan's private army. I won’t hide it from you either. Apart from you, Shi Zishan, An Tai, and Qi Chen are the three other drivers, and now there are people there, and no one else can believe it!”
"Although you, Du Yu, were single-handedly promoted by the Eighth Prince, and your reputation is as the most corrupt official under the protection of the Eighth Prince, your Majesty, Marshal Meng, and even the Commander-in-Chief all know that What did you really do? What did you Du Yu do during the war in Yandi a year ago? Those people above also know!"
"Your Majesty has sent General Meng Qin to garrison in Dazhou before. He is just waiting for this moment. Your Majesty means that it would be best if we can take back Yan Land from the Yan Palace without any bloodshed, because the people of Yan Land are suffering too much and it is not easy to recover. There is no room for war, so I came here in person. This matter caused a big fuss. We only learned about what happened in the capital this morning, so we came to you immediately, and even if we blocked the road, But Xia Zhixu will definitely learn about what is going on in the capital, and when the time comes Xia Zhixu will definitely raise troops to protect himself."
Du Yu frowned. The eighth prince Xia Chenfeng actually had a favor for Du Yu. When Du Yu passed the imperial examination, he was appointed as the magistrate of a county called Liu County in Yandi. For five consecutive years, Liu County was in Du Yu's hands. The households were open at night and the people were prosperous. When Xia Chenfeng found out about it at that time, he transferred Du Yu to Yanzhou as the magistrate, followed by the magistrate of Yanzhou, and then the current Tanzhou Biejia.
So now I heard that the King of Yan, who was known as a virtuous man and loved by the people, actually welcomed the Mobei barbarians into the land of Yan, causing the catastrophe for the people of Yan a year ago!
And he also committed regicide and rebellion, as well as many other nasty things!
It is inevitable that there is some regret in his heart, but although Du Yu is a scholar, he has long passed the age of those hypocritical favors and choosing between common people and kindness. What Xia Chenfeng did is against humanity and even more harmful to human morality!
So at that moment, Du Yu suddenly guessed what You Lian meant by coming here.
Du Yu saw with his own eyes what happened to the people in Yandi a year ago, so the more he thought about it, the more Du Yu clenched his fists.
Because the Eighth Prince, who often talked to him and always kept his mouth shut, actually behaved like a beast just as he had guessed countless times before and rejected things he didn't want to believe!
When I think of this.
Du Yu's expression suddenly changed: "No! No!"
You Lian was stunned, thinking that Du Yu was saying something was wrong with him, and was about to speak immediately.
Unexpectedly, Du Yu looked at You Lian and said, "Something big is going to happen!"
Immediately!
Du Yu shouted towards the outside of the courtyard: "Alang! Call three generals Zishan, Liu Yu and Pei Dao to come see me immediately!"
When Du Yu saw his servant standing there stunned, he immediately yelled: "Go quickly!!"
The servant was startled, turned around and hurried to call someone.
You Nian frowned and came to Du Yu: "Du Yu!"
Du Yu looked at You Lian: "Xia Zhixian of the Prince Palace asked Meng Shaoan to move the people who moved out of Jizhou from Zhuozhou and other states in Yandi, as well as some people from other states who are willing to go to Jizhou, mobilize to get to Jizhou. You should You know."
You Lian nodded.
Du Yu continued: "This thing doesn't seem like much. Even Meng Shaoan had a good way of mobilizing the people, but he was really bad at doing things. But! All the garrison in Jizhou were taken to Yongshan Camp by Xia Zhixu There are no soldiers stationed in Jizhou, and it was the same situation last year when Xia Chenfeng welcomed the Mobei barbarians!"
Upon hearing this, You Lian immediately said, "There are soldiers and horses in Jizhou."
Du Yu was stunned and looked at You Lian in confusion.
You Lian said, "Seven days ago, we also found out what you said. We were afraid that Xia Zhixu would commit the same treasonous act as Xia Chenfeng. But in order not to alert the enemy, we sent people to investigate. However, there are troops in Jizhou, and the garrison soldiers are all soldiers from Yongshan Camp. This is true. We even sent people to Yongshan Camp to check."
