Reborn Concubine's Wife

Chapter 172: In Zhiyang City (1)
"Here."

After everyone had left, Jiang Zijing looked at him gloatingly, pointed to the five paw prints on his left face, and said with a strange smile, "Jiulang, that little woman of yours is rebellious... Jie Jie..."

Wang Jinzhi squinted at him, his gaze was as clear as a pure snow mountain, but Jiang Zijing felt cold all over, and immediately closed his mouth.After a while, he hissed again, and said suspiciously, "That's not right... Jiulang, I remember that it was this sister-in-law who kept saying that she admired you, admired you, admired you, and liked you. , doesn’t seem to be the case?”

Wang Jinzhi's eyes were lost for a moment. When A Ruo slapped him just now, he saw the fear in her eyes. Although it was only replaced by hatred for a moment, it couldn't escape his eyes.

Is she afraid of herself?Or are you afraid of your own touch?What did I do to make her hate him so much?When he thought of the hatred in her eyes, his heart would stop for an instant.What is it for?
"She came all the way from Phoenix City to Zhiyang City for me, and broke into the barbarian camp regardless of danger and life. Without her, how could you and I be here safely?" Wang Jinzhi said calmly, gently waving his left hand On the left cheek, the voice lowered, "Ah Ruo has me in her heart, so naturally she likes me... Otherwise, why would she risk her life to save me? Ah Ruo has me in her heart..." as if talking to herself Whispering, I don't know whether to say it to Jiang Zijing or to myself.

"Jiulang, General Li, please see me!" Yuwei's report sounded from outside.

Jiang Zijing raised his eyebrows and looked at Wang Jiulang.

Wang Jiulang put the cotton towel brought up by Cai Yuwei to his left cheek, and said unhurriedly: "Please come in!"

"Here."

"General Li, please come in..."

Li Yun had already taken off his mask, changed out his soft armor, and simply washed up.In the past few days, he has become darker and thinner.But energetic, handsome facial features, yet domineering.

"Brother..." He bowed to Wang Jiulang, then nodded to Jiang Zijing, as if he had seen him.

"Sit..." Wang Jinzhi stretched out his hand and asked him to sit down.

Li Yun knelt and sat down opposite him.After this battle, he who used to show his sharpness like a leopard has learned to be introverted. With those glazed eyes, Hua Yun's expression, but he can't see through his thoughts, which makes people feel shocked.

Wang Jinzhi has always had a good understanding of people, Jiang Zijing sighed, this Li Yun will surely become a giant dragon rising into the sky in time.

"Second brother, thanks to you this time, Brother Yu was able to live in mediocrity."

"Brother is self-effacing, if it weren't for the elder brother's plan, the younger brother would not be able to sit here peacefully and talk about the past and the present with the elder brother."

Wang Jinzhi smiled lightly and didn't say much. The two had a tacit understanding not to mention Zheng Ruo.

"Come here, serve wine and meat!"

"Here!"

After a while, a feather guard came up with a food table and a wine jar.

Wang Jinzhi put down his left hand, scooped a glass of wine for Li Yun, handed it to him, and extended his hand to invite him.While holding the wine glass, Li Yun took a careful look at his red and swollen left cheek, and covered his drinking with his hand to block the happy gaze in his eyes.I couldn't help but feel happy, Ah Ruo still kept his promise.This slap is really good!
Putting down his wine glass, he didn't ask about the five paw prints on Wang Jinzhi's face, as if he didn't see them at all, and Wang Jinzhi didn't mention it tacitly.After drinking for three rounds, Wang Jinzhi said: "Sima Chu abandoned Phoenix City, Yongzhou, and now the second brother has driven away Shihu, and the people support and love him. Second brother, your current prestige is not too high for a county guard."

"To tell you the truth, brother, I have exactly this intention. Sima Chu personally gave me this Yongzhou and Phoenix City. Is there any reason not to continue?"

Wang Jinzhi nodded, and said, "I'll write a letter and send it to Luoyang. After a while, your reward will come down. Although you won Phoenix City and Yongzhou, you want to include them all in the vast area of ​​western Liaoning. Under his command, it is not an easy task."

Li Yun nodded.

Wang Jinzhi smiled faintly, "Second brother's most urgent task is to recruit soldiers and buy horses, and to supplement the food and wages."

"I have a candidate in mind for this matter, and if I entrust it to this person, the matter will definitely be handled properly."

"Oh? I don't know who the second brother is choosing?"

"The eldest son of the Zheng clan chief in Liaoxi, Zheng Jinxiao."

Wang Jinzhi was slightly taken aback, and said with a smile, "I didn't expect the second brother to think the same as me. With this person around, the second brother's military reserves will be safe."

The two looked at each other and smiled, naturally thinking of Zheng Ruo.From the beginning of her storage of grain, to the sale of grain at a high price, to the purchase of salt mines and Zhuangzi's fields for Li Yun, it can be seen that this little girl has business talents.And from the very beginning, Wang Jinzhi felt that Zheng Ruo had the same idea as him and wanted to assist Li Yun wholeheartedly.Although, he was very surprised why a sister-in-law of hers would have such an idea.However, instead of letting her contact Li Yun secretly, it is better to put her on the bright side, so that she can take care of her.As for the explanation of this care, I am afraid that only Wang Jiulang knows.

For Li Yun, pulling Zheng Ruo into his camp was also for taking care of him.Firstly, she provided herself with a lot of food, grass and water, and gave the Zheng family a quartermaster, which was justifiable. Secondly, Ah Ruo did have the talent of a soldier. How could she ignore Zheng Jinxiao under her command?It's just that she is a woman, so it's not easy to be appointed as an official, so her elder brother will take it on her behalf.Come three times, naturally it is to let her fulfill her promise. If she has something to do, she will naturally have less leisure time and won't think about Wang Jiulang all day long.What's more, when Wang Jiulang approached him, he had famously said not to reveal his name.In other words, Wang Jiulang would only assist him in the dark. After he gave Zheng the quartermaster, Zheng Ruo could be with him in an open and aboveboard manner without worrying about bumping into Wang Jiulang.

"After this battle, the second brother will be famous far and wide," Wang Jinzhi scooped up a glass of wine for him again, and said, "The second brother has not yet married a wife. After returning to Phoenix City, I am afraid that many aristocratic families will come to marry. Two Brother, let’s take a look, to get the full support of these great clans, it will often get twice the result with half the effort.”
