Chapter 255 The Secret Between Men

Chapter 255 The Secret Between Men
After saying a word, everyone in the hall turned their eyes to me.

expecting, sure...

As if I was bound to come up with something clever.

This is really difficult for me, the so-called favorable time and place, I either defeated the enemy twice in advance or it was a coincidence, a clever woman can't cook without rice, what can I do about the lack of food...

"Qingmu has nothing to do for now." I shook my head.

Su Huo seemed to just ask casually, nodded, and started discussing with everyone again.

Everyone said one sentence to another, and there was no good way for a long time. At this time, someone proposed to buy grain, but the payment was not enough, so I thought of one thing.

When Baili Tianqi was still the prince, a small county in Dongmu was hit by disasters for two consecutive years. The place was a mountainous area, and news of the disaster was usually blocked. too late.

However, the wisdom of the common people is endless. In that county, there was a ninth-rank official who was extremely wise. Borrowing not only can survive the cold, but also enough food for spring sowing.

I was very surprised by this, so I deliberately inquired about it, and the method turned out to be very simple...

He is an official, and he also has a seal of identity in his hand, so he made a letter in the form of a notice.

It probably means that his own jurisdiction was affected by the disaster, and the relief from the imperial city had not arrived. As a parent official, he could not watch the people starve to death, so he came out to borrow food and goods.All those who are willing to borrow spring sowing seeds will return half of the harvest next year as interest.

People speak lightly, and the words are sharp.

Those who are unwilling to borrow food will be tempted when they see the notice, and those who are hesitant to borrow will naturally borrow food happily.

In this way, the small county went through the most difficult difficulty before the relief came.

The current situation in the border camp is similar to that of that small county. What if we follow its example?
The hundreds of thousands of soldiers and guards in the army consume a huge amount of food and grass every day. Although this method will not raise enough food for more than ten days at once, and the amount of food repayment is also large, but in the current situation, it can be delayed by one more day. Wei will suffer one day less.

It's almost the Chinese New Year, and those who are away from home to protect their country and can't even eat enough, I feel so sorry for these sons...

I explained this method, some people agreed, some people objected, after Su Huo and Helian Yunze thought about it carefully, they finally made a final decision and decided to do it this way.

Just do what you say, Su Huo took the commander's seal and sent General Zhou and Qin Meng out to supervise the matter...

The urgent need was resolved, and everyone heaved a sigh of relief, and then they dispersed after researching something else.

"Qingmu, wait a moment."

Unsurprisingly, Suho called me.

"Yes." I replied.

When everyone was gone, Su Huo took two steps forward, closed the door and window, turned around and looked over.

My complexion remained unchanged, I smiled slightly, and just looked back at the past.

There was no wind, and the house was silent.

After a while, Su Huo finally said, "Qingmu, tell Grandpa what kind of thing you used to defeat the enemy last night, how could you hurt countless enemies by yourself."

I smiled slightly.

Most of Su Huo's army withdrew during the day, and those left behind were all elite soldiers, and everyone was making up.

Most of the people Qiu Jin brought sneaked into the camp secretly. Some of those things were brought in openly, and some were brought in with my hidden guards. It was normal for him to have doubts.

I made such a big commotion last night, the reason why the heavy soldiers didn't ask me more about my Lei Huo Dan is because the military order for withdrawing troops was issued by Su Huoli, and the two of us discussed it alone in the tent, everyone must have thought that , Su Huo had thought about it for a long time.

But he was kept in the dark.

"The weapon used to destroy the enemy is a hidden weapon obtained by chance. After being well-equipped, its power has greatly increased. The reason why I didn't take it out in advance is because I was afraid that there would be more subtle operations in the army." I said.

Su Huo nodded, and was about to sit next to me a few steps away, and handed me an empty cup of coarse tea.

I nodded and took it. He sat on the chair next to me and pondered for a while. He didn't mention the hidden weapon deeply, but said, "Qingmu, my Su family is a family of generals, and I will be loyal to my lord all my life. Grandpa." Guarding the border gates for many years, although he seldom took care of you, His Majesty has treated our Su family well these years, and the emperor's kindness is so great, you should remember it in your heart."

Um?What does this mean, okay, how do you say this...

I don't know why, but he said again, "Qingmu, you still have that hidden weapon in your hand?"

I shook my head, and answered honestly, "That thing is very expensive to build. I have used up all I have in this siege. In Qingmu's hands, there is no more."

"It's good if you don't have it, it's good if you don't have it!" Su Huo nodded, "Qingmu, you are a child of my Su family. In terms of talent, virtue and wisdom, you are a leader, but as a courtier, you can do what you can. That's all, don't rush for quick success and lose your heart!

According to my grandfather's persuasion, that hidden weapon can only be used once.Now that you don't have it in your hands, don't make any more in the future, okay? "

Don't lose your mind if you are eager for quick success?
If I remember correctly, Master Lu once told me this...

Also, I used that thunderbolt to flatten the enemy, shouldn't he be happy, why is he worried?
Seeing that I was silent, he seemed to be a little anxious, but he stretched out his old hand and held my hand in the palm of his hand.

"Qingmu, grandpa spent half his life as a soldier. Although he also wanted to expand the territory of Xiqi for me, your hidden weapon is so powerful that it can wipe out all enemies in an instant. You can destroy countless enemies by destroying only one city. It can be said that you are invincible. But in this world, there are not only stations, but also the people! If you have any thoughts in your heart, you must think twice and think again, and take benevolence as your faith, and be good."

Su Huo frowned slightly, looking very earnest.But the more he said, the more I couldn't understand...

You said just now that you don't want quick success, so why is it related to benevolence and the people of the world?

Is he afraid that I will use that thunderbolt against the people, or is he afraid that I will do something out of the ordinary?
I looked at his frowning brows and suddenly remembered something again.

When camel blossoms come out, the world will be overthrown...

Is it...

Yes, he is worried about this!
On the way from the county where I came to the frontier, the incident about the camel flower pendant has become so commotion that everyone knows it.There are purchases in the army, and every time they go out, they will bring back some interesting news to pass the time, and those news will naturally reach Su Huo's ears.

The camel flower jade pendant in my hand was given to me by him.

This time I made such a big commotion in the army again.He is afraid that I will hold a hidden weapon in his hand, and his ambition is too great, and he will overthrow the world...

When camel blossoms come out, the world will be overthrown...

I suddenly wanted to laugh.

It's a rumor, and it's fine for the common people to believe it. As wise as Su Huo, they are also worried about it.

What am I doing in this world, sitting in the supreme position, proud for thousands of years?
Sorry, I'm not really interested in those.

I just want to check and balance Baili Tianqi, to take what he wants most, to avenge the hatred of the Feng family, and to fulfill the curse in Feng Qingluan's snake cave.

I just want revenge...

I smiled slightly, "Don't worry, Grandpa, the Su family is a courtier, and Qing Mu is the son of the Su family. Naturally, he has the heart of a courtier, and everything will be considered with the mind of a courtier, and he will share worries for the country."

I just told him: Don't worry, I won't spy on high positions, not today, and not in the future.

"Okay, okay, you child must do what you say, and it's enough if you have this word." Su Huo smiled, his eyes were full of joy, and he stretched out his hand to pat the back of my hand a few times, looking very relieved.

I also smiled slightly.

Yes, but I do what I say, I say I want to take revenge, and I will take revenge...

Not spying on high positions and revenge, and not conflicting.

The warm sun is orange and red, and clouds are scattered from the sky.

The third day after the great victory is the Xiqi Calendar.

As the year passed, General Zhou and Qin Meng also returned to the army, and there were dozens of taxis that came back with them.

Corn, rice, grain bran, hay, and two carts of raw meat...

Carloads of grain and grass were transported in from outside the camp. The soldiers saw them and were delighted. After some booing, the gang leader carried out the big pot, picked up firewood and started a fire, and stewed several pots full of meat. .

The smell of rice wafted, and the smell of meat permeated the camp, and as soon as it got dark, colorful fireworks rose from the sky.

Firecrackers say goodbye to the old year, and fireworks welcome the new year.

After the soldiers and guards had eaten, some of them who liked to be lively actually lit a bonfire and danced in a circle.

They are all strong and strong men, who can't dance, they kick and stomp one by one, just like fat bears, making everyone laugh.

The laughter infected everyone, and many soldiers and guards joined in. After a while, joyous songs and laughter rang out in the barracks.

I sat by the small bonfire, raised my head and took a sip of the west wind.

The wine is like piercing the intestines, leaving a fragrance in the throat.

This is the first New Year after I reach Ji, and I am in the frontier.

"Little girl, are you in a bad mood?" A thick cotton poncho was draped over her body, her hand was empty, and the bamboo wine barrel was taken away and stuffed into a heater.

Xuanyuan Chen picked up a thick branch and made the bonfire a little hotter. The orange flames blazed brightly, and the warm air rippling.

My heart suddenly felt agitated, and I turned sideways to pick up the bamboo bucket that was placed far away, and then brought it close to my lips, and he snatched it away again.

"I've been watching you from behind for a long time. You drank a lot, and I'm afraid you'll get drunk if you drink any more."

He bent his lips and smiled, and he didn't know where to wipe it, and handed over a bamboo pot, "This is warm ginger jujube tea, it's warm, drink this."

Seeing that I didn't answer, he was not annoyed. He put the bamboo pot near the campfire and sat next to me.

There are soldiers dancing in front of you, the bonfire jumps in front of you, and the fireworks are brilliant in the sky.

Seeing me staring at the sky in a daze, Xuanyuan Chen chuckled, "Little girl, didn't you say that you don't like fireworks?"

I bent my lips slightly, and he shook his head with a smile, and handed over my jug, "Today is the Chinese New Year, let's make an exception and let you drink some, it's a big deal, I'll carry you back later."

"Hahaha... Sister of the Su family, there are times when you drink too much and make people forget."

With a loud laugh, I raised my head. Rong Ziyang was wearing a red armor, and Ji Yunchang was wearing a navy blue cloak, and came closer.

Xuanyuan Chen smiled, and wanted to retreat, Rong Ziyang patted him on the shoulder, "Hey, why are you leaving? I'm happy today. Let's have a drink together. I brought all the wine." As he spoke, he shook the round wine in his hand altar.

Ji Yunchang also stretched out his hand, revealing another wine jar.

"You two came prepared." I chuckled.

"Of course, you can't have wine without food. I brought food." Rong Ziyang smiled, took out a paper bag, and opened his mouth. It contained a large piece of beef.

Xuanyuan Chen smiled and said, "Since you are all prepared, you can't miss me, just wait a moment."

He got up and left, and after a while, he came back with a nest of hawks.

Rong Ziyang's eyes lit up immediately, "Hey, yes! I've been staring at the big eagle for a long time, and I've seen it come out to look for food several times, but I can't find its nest. How did you find it?"

Xuanyuan Chen squinted at him, and asked deliberately, "Want to know?"

Rong Ziyang has been active since he was a child, so he nodded and said yes immediately.

"Then let's drink three cups first, and I'll tell you." Xuanyuan Chen said.

"Of course that's good, come on!" Rong Ziyang directly broke open the wine jar, took three gulps, then handed over the jar, Xuanyuan Chen took it, raised his head to drink some, and then hooked his hands.

Rong Ziyang listened to this, and after hearing Xuanyuan Chen say a few words, he was taken aback for a moment, then laughed loudly, pointed at him and said, "Hey, don't say it, it's really you, this is really a solution."

I looked curious, so I asked, "What are you talking about, can you speak up so that I can listen too."

"Cut! I can't tell you this, it's a secret among men."

Rong Ziyang smiled, tilted his head up to drink, and then showed a tacit smile with Xuanyuan Chen...
