Fangcaodi, blue sky.
Xiao Lu and Ma Fei arrived in front of the so-called Miao Zai Yard without realizing it, but a large pool of water next to the yard caught their attention.
By the pond, two fishermen in ragged clothes were sitting.
One is old and the other is young. The old one has a mouth full of yellow teeth. He is holding a fishing rod leisurely in his left hand, while he is casually holding a pipe in his right hand. The child happily carried a basket and happily threw a net into the small fish pond.
"Sister Lu, they are so strange." Ma Fei got off the horse, and with that important thing in mind, he tied the horse under a willow tree on the side of the road.
"You're right." Xiao Lu responded, tied up the horse, and was about to go to the other courtyard.
To be honest, the pool of water in front of Wang Yi's Mansion is indeed a bit surprising. Logically speaking, such a scenery should be located in a corner of another courtyard in that courtyard, but it actually flows straight here.
"Sister Lu." Ma Fei asked, "This is the first time I have seen this scene. In the past, the ponds in our Tiancan Village were all around the mountain village, as well as in the Tianya Village. However, these ponds are everywhere. Appeared around this courtyard?"
What Ma Fei said was true, and Xiao Lu also had some clues in his mind, but he was thinking about business matters, so he urged Xiao Ma Fei to quickly help talk to the guards in front of the other courtyard to make things easier for them.
Ma Fei happily responded: "Okay." Then he quickly walked towards the front of Miao Zai's courtyard.
While he was fighting wits with the guards, Xiaolu carefully inquired about the two people by the pond, and the two seemed to feel the woman's magical behavior silently watching him, and they were very happy. Started talking.
"Well, do you think the weather is nice today?" the old man asked.
"Master, the weather is perfect today." The young man replied respectfully.
"Well, do you have any predictions about how much we can fish today?" the old man asked happily.
"Master, this matter is unpredictable and depends entirely on your mood." The young man lowered his head and replied.
After saying that, the two of them looked at each other and smiled. Xiaolu saw this smile, but a child less than ten years old could say such words, which really made people feel a little creepy.
When Xiaolu was in a daze, Ma Fei had already finished his work. Seeing Xiaolu's dazed and restless look, he shouted: "Sister Lu, we can go in."
Only then did Xiao Lu come to his senses, thinking that Xiao Ma Fei really had a lot of skills. At least in this world, he still had a lot of temperament and confidence.
"Okay." She responded, then turned her head in the direction of Ma Fei. When she was about to turn around, the two old and young people were still laughing. The deer's peripheral vision swept across, and they felt really unhappy. Quietness flooded into her heart.
In Wang Yi's house, the girls were busy going up and down. In the panic, two servants brought Xiaolu and Ma Fei into the main hall. At this moment, Wang Yi and Wu Gong were busy receiving guests.
In the hall, a man with a particularly good-looking face was sitting at attention. There was an obvious scar on the man's hand, which was caused by practicing martial arts over time. There was not only a kind of indifference in his movements, but also a bit of gloom. .
It's bleak, at least this word is the first image that comes to Xiaolu when he sees Shen Jianfeng again.
She froze on the spot, regretting what she said was the beginning.
This is so.
What has he experienced in these years.
Why did the sadness on his face turn into gloom.
Time changes a person, but it does not change a person's habits from childhood to adulthood. At least Shen Jianfeng has always had the habit of lowering his head to think when he is thoughtful, and this has never changed.
Therefore, at this moment, she concluded that he was the one she had been looking for.
Wang Yi and Wu Gong were sitting at the guest seats. When they saw the red-haired female general, Wu Gong's first reaction was to jump up from his seat. He held her That rough voice shouted: "This is Miss Xiaoluzi! Welcome!"
Faced with Wu Gong's enthusiasm, Xiao Lu politely replied: "Exactly, the person next to me is my junior brother, Xiao Ma Fei."
"Oh, Ma Fei!" Wu Gong casually picked up a wine glass next to him and shouted: "Then do it first as a token of respect to express my heartfelt welcome to the two of you. The girl's name has long been known, and today See, it’s really extraordinary.”
After saying that, Wu Gong happily drank the wine in his hand. After the wine was gone, he placed the cup in his hand, and then warmly invited the two people who had come from afar to sit down.
Xiaolu and Ma Fei didn't want to go against Wu Gong's good intentions, so they sat quietly opposite Shen Jianfeng.
At this moment, Xiaolu had to look at Shen Jianfeng again. Her heartbeat accelerated inexplicably, and she felt restless.
Soon, the two people who were fishing by the pond just now came into the lobby.
The two of them bowed respectfully to everyone, and then sat next to Shen Jianfeng with smiles on their faces. Shen Jianfeng suddenly stood up and said respectfully to the old man: "Teacher, thank you for your hard work."
The old man smiled and said, "The weather is just right, so it won't be hard."
After talking and answering, Xiaolu was a little confused as to what it meant.
"Master Song, are you satisfied with my little pond of Wu Gong?" Wu Gong shouted in a loud voice, "If you really like it, I, Wu Gong, can ask people to move every flower, tree, water and mud from this pond. It’s not an exaggeration to go to your ancient country of Loulan.”
"Mr. Wu, you are polite." The old man replied, "What you said is very tempting, but now that the war is coming, you and I have different positions. I think it is okay to mobilize troops like this. If you are lucky, I am willing to do it. I came here with a different identity for the first time, how about enjoying this scene with you?"
The implication of the old man's words was very clear, but his words were too arrogant. Xiaolu looked at the three people in front of him with confirmation, so
The little-known ancient country of Loulan? So, the opposing camps of the future? So, what is Shen Jianfeng's identity at this moment
"Hahaha." Wu Gong laughed. He looked at Wang Yi beside him with a playful smile, and asked with affection in his eyes, "Madam, you think Master Song's idea is really good. I will return it someday." I really have the opportunity to fish with him again.”
Wang Yi was a little angry when she heard this. She glanced at Wu Gong without hesitation and said, "Shut up if you don't know how to speak. I haven't learned from you yet."
Hearing this, everyone laughed, except Xiaolu, whose smile was the most embarrassing.
"Everyone, the purpose of your coming here is very clear." Wang Yi stood up and said to her guests with the attitude of a hostess: "As the saying goes, if the world fights, there will be unity. I, Wang Yi, have always been We advocate peace. If Liu Quan hadn't caused our southwestern region to suffer a loss of reputation, we wouldn't have rebelled in this mountainous, remote place. Now, you can see, the people in my city are also included. We live and work in peace and contentment. Although we are not as rich as you, we live a simple and happy life. It is said that every man is responsible for the rise and fall of the world. I, Wang Yi, know very well that the winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. You also say that the public is right and the mother-in-law is right. And when you come to my territory, Wang Yi, you have to follow my lead, and don’t think about surrendering to us. You are a guest, and I will fulfill my friendship as a landlord. So, whoever wins, I We will not rebel. You can say that we are resigned to the situation, or you can say that we surrender directly to the successful side."
Wang Yi's words were very clear, and everyone present understood her position.
The old man smiled, looked at everyone, and said slowly: "The so-called stance is that there is no stance. Very good."
"Exactly." Wang Yi replied quickly.
Xiaolu carefully inquired about the person in front of her. Facing Wang Yi's position, this was a good thing, but she always felt that something was wrong.
What's wrong
At this time, Ma Fei, who had just come out of the world, asked: "I would like to ask, now that disputes are inevitable in the world, if the southwest region is also a must-contested area, and Liu Quan is suffering from internal and external troubles, or a certain force is because of this For other reasons, when your calculations focus on your southwest land, what kind of response will you make?"
Ma Fei grasped the key point. The land with high mountains and far away roads has always been a battleground for military strategists. Faced with such a beautiful land, who wouldn't be moved by the sight of it
"I'll fight them." Wu Gong stood up again and shouted, "A brave man will come out from under a kitchen knife, and a talented man will come out from under a sword. I still don't believe it. These people are going to fight us head-on. Who is afraid?"
"Yes." This time, Wang Yi was in the same camp as Wu Gong in terms of language. "At worst, it will be a dead end! I don't think Liu Quan poses much of a threat anymore, but you, brother Zhinuo, I Seeing that you said that your army of 500,000 is stationed in the west and has subdued Qin Le, and General Xiaolu, your army of 300,000 has also reached the outside of Liu Quan City. It is quite scary to say that, so I I hope that you two armies will fight without hurting innocent people. I, Wang Yi, swear that I will never help anyone based on the position of either of you. But if you want to take us by force, then I, with a population of millions in the southwest, will When the time comes, everything will really be in full swing."
What? Xiaolu looked at the scene in front of her curiously. It seemed that she understood the purpose of Shen Jianfeng and the others' trip here. But that's right. There is not only one master in this world who knows the number of fate. I'm afraid there is also Master Song in front of me.
"Okay." Xiaolu replied cheerfully, "Today, since General Wu and his wife dare to make a promise, I came with the words of Master Gu and Zhongnanshan, but now I can't break it. I can’t embarrass you, let alone put your military reputation in jeopardy. I, Liu Silu, promise here today that if I take the initiative to offend the southwest region, I will definitely end up in a place of eternal disaster. But if you surrender to other warlords, I will definitely not ask for peace. .”
"Okay!" Wu Gong clapped his hands, "Then it's a deal."
Everyone nodded.
At this moment, Shen Jianfeng was looking seriously at this eloquent woman, feeling more curious about her in his heart. But Xiaolu didn't dare to meet his eyes, because she knew that this was exactly how Shen Jianfeng no longer thought of her.
Today, his name is Zhinuo.
