Cai Yan smiled and said: "Husband, you are really smart, just guess it, and my concubine thinks..."
Liu Xin smiled and waved his hand, and said, "Let me guess again. My Zhaoji is not only excellent in literary talent, but also proficient in rhythm. What you want to learn should be some kind of musical instrument on the grassland."
"People's careful thoughts made you guess it, it's really boring," Cai Yan pretended to be angry, but because of Liu Xin's praise, he said softly, "The concubine body wants to learn. It’s a kind of musical instrument of the Huns called the 笳."
In Liu Xin's eyes, Diao Chan and Cai Yan are both artists of this era. One is a dance artist and the other is an instrumental artist. Since they are artists, of course they will be passionate about their favorite art and want to learn from the grassland. Singing and dancing instrumental music is also a normal thing.
Liu Xin was about to agree, and suddenly remembered Cai Yan’s eighteen shots of Hu Jia in history, which represented her tragic life experience. Although Cai Yan’s destiny had been completely changed due to her arrival, Liu Xin still didn’t want her in his heart. I can’t help but hesitate again when I come into contact with Hu Jia.
Cai Yan saw that Liu Xin's face was cloudy and uncertain, and said, "Husband, you are favoring one another. You can agree to sister Diaochan, but you refuse to agree to a concubine. Oh, I see. No wonder you don't want sister Diaochan to do it. The concubine's maidservant, I'm afraid there is another attempt."
When she said these words, she ignored Diao Chan's presence, and Diao Chan couldn't help but feel ashamed. One of her heads was buried even lower.
Liu Xin had to cough dryly and said, "Zhao Ji, what are you talking about? I'm just worried that you have to take care of Xiang'er, and you have to accompany Diaochan to dance, and learn about Hu Jia. I'm afraid I can't be too busy. If you want to learn, just ask those Hun girls. I can’t guarantee that they will bring Hu Jia with them, but it doesn’t matter if they don’t have them. If you’re really interested, I’ll send someone to the grassland to find A few will come back,"
"Husband, thank you very much for the concubine and Diaochan girl, let's go now, so as not to disturb your official business," Cai Yan laughed, pulled Diaochan who was still there in a daze and walked out, and turned back when he reached the door. Said, "My husband, sister Diaochan is not too young. If you don't plan to keep her, just say it earlier. Don't delay sister Diaochan's youth."
Liu Xin was moved by Cai Yan's words, and blurted out, "Hey, wait,"
Cai Yan stopped, turned his head and smirked and said, "Husband, you are going to..."
Old Liu Xin blushed and he stubbornly said: "No, Miss Diaochan, Liu wanted to ask. Last time you said to visit Wang Yun, I don't know if you have gone, and he is still satisfied with the duties assigned to him."
Diaochan was first flushed by Cai Yan's repeated jokes, and then he was full of expectation when he heard Liu Xin calling them, but when he heard Liu Xin asking about it, he felt a little disappointed and turned around and gave a salute. He shook his head and said, "After I went back, I thought about it for a long time. It's better to ask an adult to accompany the girl when I have time."
With such a peerless beauty in front of him, how could Liu Xin remain unmoved? Now I don’t have to worry about what Wang Yun will play. Naturally, he has no scruples, and he can clearly feel that Diao Chan seems not to be committed to him. No contradiction, now it’s almost pierced through that layer of window paper,
Liu Xin almost blurted it out just now, but suddenly remembered Ma Yun, Ma Yun was really good to him, but he kept getting some women home again and again, and it seemed that something was wrong with her. , So, I changed my words again when I reached my lips,
Some things need to strike while the iron is hot. Liu Xin changed his mouth and calmed down, and said indifferently: "So that's the case, that's okay, but Liu will walk with the girl in a few days."
Diao Chan only felt that her cheeks were hot, and she gave a soft promise. From the beginning to the end, he didn't even dare to lift his head, so he hurriedly followed Cai Yan to the flower hall to look for the Hun girls.
At this time, Jushou had already drafted the order to Mi Zhu and Yu Fan, and then used it to give Liu Xin a look. After receiving Liu Xin’s approval, he arranged for Meteor Express to be sent to the refugee camp in Wu County around the clock.
While building roads in various places, Liu Xin also paid great attention to the construction of post stations along the way. Basically, a post station was set up every 30 to 50 miles. After the post station was built, it was not enough. A large number of postmen and army horses were needed. These expenses are very expensive, and only Liu Xin can afford this large sum of money.
However, all post stations are both military and civilian. They not only undertake the important task of transmitting military information, but also have the responsibility of maintaining roads. They also provide accommodation services for merchants traveling from the north to the south. Therefore, most post stations are not entirely a Money-consuming entertainment will also have a certain income, especially in some areas with more developed commerce. After a year, the post there will have a small surplus after all expenses are eliminated.
There are more post stations, which not only facilitates the transfer of military information, but also greatly increases the safety along the way. Otherwise, for such a long distance from Xiangyang to Wu County, several postmen would dare to hurry on the road at night, because it is an emergency military situation. The postmen changed people and horses along the way. In less than two days, the order from Xiangyang was sent to Yu Fan’s hands.
Yu Fan gave this emergency military information to everyone to read, and even Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong did not hide it.
Zhang Zhao couldn't help but praised: "Unexpectedly, Mrs. Liu is in Xiangyang, but he has a deep understanding of what happened in Xuzhou. No wonder he can achieve what he is today."
But Mi Zhu had a lingering fear, and said, "If it weren't for the two gentlemen to remind him in time, when the letter from the lord arrives, it has already caused a catastrophe. Mi will definitely report what happened here to the lord and recommend the two gentlemen to the lord. With two gentlemen and great talents, the Lord Lord will definitely entrust important tasks."
Zhang Hong waved his hand and said, "Thank you Master Mi for your kindness. Some people are used to idleness, but there are a few acres of thin fields and a few thatched huts are enough."
Gan Ning said from the side: "Slowly discussing these things will not be too late. Since the lord has ordered Ruo Rong to be executed on the spot, to thank Wanmin, I will ask Master Yu to cut him. Gan will take the knife and send him on the road. it is good,"
Zhang Zhao already knew that Gan Ning was the captain of the navy under Liu Xin, and he couldn't help but wondered: "How can the general do it himself in the execution of torture?"
Gan Ning said disapprovingly: "There have been no wars lately, and life has been unremarkable. It's okay to have a chance to kill someone to relieve the boredom,"
Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong were shocked. Such a person can also be a captain of the navy. Liu Xin is really informal in employing people.
Xu Sheng, who had been silent for a long time, said suddenly: "If General Gan is in a panic, why not go to Guangling and his party?"
Gan Ning said angrily: "You think I don't want to, but the lord said clearly in the letter that we are not allowed to attack Guangling without authorization. Let me tell you the truth. Gan Mou is still punished because he used troops without authorization last time. Body, this thing is absolutely impossible to do,"
Zhang Hong nodded and said, "Master Liu's consideration is quite thorough. If you can't defend Guangling, it's better not to let the tail end."
Xu Sheng said, "You are all misunderstood. Xu did not persuade General Gan to use troops against Guangling, but to persuade General Gan to lead his Mongolian giant ship to Guangling and take a trip along the river to bring the innocent people here. Come,"
This night, Gan Ning and others were busy purging the soldiers that Ruorong had brought from Pengcheng, and Mi Zhu was not idle. Together with Yu Fan, he set up the homes of Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong and showed them around. After the refugee camp, Zhang Zhao and others were amazed at the various systems and good living order of the refugee camp. They all said that there was a major epidemic after the disaster. So many people fled from Xuzhou to Jiangnan and gathered in this small area. On the small river bank, not only did not cause the epidemic, but also did not appear to be incompatible with the water and soil. This is very rare. Next, Mi Zhu also introduced them to the resettlement of these people and the future prospects that Liu Xin planned for them.
Zhang Zhao and others originally planned to wait for the war in Xuzhou to calm down before returning to their hometown. Now, after hearing Mi Zhu’s statement, they can’t help feeling that as long as they follow the path designed by Liu Xin, the life in Jiangnan will only get more and more. Okay, I suddenly felt the thought of staying and then taking a look.
Xu Sheng stayed with Zhang Zhao and the others for a few days, and developed a heart of righteousness. After listening to Zhang Zhao's analysis, he felt that it made sense. He thought of the more than 100,000 Pengcheng people still stranded in Guangling and the local people in Guangling. Ruo Rong devastated the people, so he came up with this idea,
In Xu Sheng’s view, the navy had so many large ships that it was enough to take more than 100,000 refugees, four or five round trips, but he didn’t know that the navy’s ships were built by Liu Xinqing with all his strength. Many high-level secrets, if leaks are a big deal, how can so many ordinary people board the warship
Gan Ning knew how powerful it was, and he refused Xu Sheng's proposal without hesitation, and said: "Navy ships are at most escorts, and ordinary people are definitely not allowed to board."
Mi Zhu is also a native of Xuzhou. Seeing that the people in his hometown are suffering from this disaster, they have to sleep and eat early, and think for a moment. He thinks Xu Sheng's proposal is really feasible. He can't help saying: "General Gan, the ships that transport the people don't need naval forces. Provided, you only need the navy to provide escorts,"
Yu Fan laughed and said, "Is Master Mi trying to hit the boats held by Ruo Rong?"
A few days ago, the people of Xuzhou wanted to come to the south of the Yangtze River with merchant ships and fishing boats. If you were lucky, there would be navy soldiers who sneaked across the river to escort them. However, the people all crossed the river spontaneously. They also found the fishing boats. Although Mi Zhu would provide extra subsidies to the boaters after crossing the river, the organization seemed a bit messy. Now the opportunity is here, because Ruo Rong has restrained these boats together. Organized and transported the people of Xuzhou in large quantities,
After turning over this statement, Gan Ning naturally understood what Mi Zhu meant. He was also a little tempted. He hesitated and said: "It is not a problem to be escorted by the navy. It is just that the people must be gathered first. Otherwise, a large number of ships Staying on the other side for a long time will inevitably cause misunderstandings among Liu Yao and others. In the event of a conflict, it will violate the lord’s strict order not to use force."
Mi Zhu said without hesitation: "It should not be too late. Mi will go to Guangling to organize the people who have fled to cross the river in batches."
