In Yucheng, there are few fresh vegetables in winter. However, this winter, the dishes on Yuxi's table are richer than before.
Looking at the crisp gherkins, Yuxi smiled and said, "Go make sweet and sour cucumbers and eat them." These vegetables were purchased by Han Ji from a wealthy businessman in Xinpingcheng, who had a greenhouse. Of course, these vegetables were originally grown for their own consumption.
A quarter of an hour later, Mother Huang brought a plate of sweet and sour cucumbers. Yuxi eats regularly, but this time he did not hold back and ate up the entire plate of cucumbers in one go.
After eating, Yuxi took the kerchief and wiped her mouth, and said with a smile: "You don't need to eat at noon." It was so delicious.
Mother Qu said, "Madam, the dishes from Xinping City are still a bit monotonous, and they are not fresh. Let's build a warm shed by ourselves next year!" It takes two days to travel from Xinping City to Yucheng. Naturally it is not new. In fact, Mrs. Qu said that it would not cost too much money to build a warm shed!
Yuxi shook her head and said, "No, just try something fresh occasionally." She couldn't stay in Yucheng for long. Once the plan is successful, we will leave Yucheng. So, it’s really unnecessary to build a shed.
After eating such a large stack of sweet and sour cucumbers, Yuxi only ate a bowl of green vegetable porridge at noon, and couldn't eat the others.
Yun Qing couldn’t see it. He put a piece of greasy beef into Yuxi’s bowl and said, “Eat more meat.” Yun Qing is a carnivorous animal. Although he listens to Yuxi’s words every time he eats some vegetables, he is the most Love is meat!
Yuxi said disgustingly: "You are delicious, I want to eat it." Yun Qing not only likes to eat meat, but also has a strong taste. Yuxi's diet is mainly light, and originally wanted to transform Yunqing, but it ended in failure. However, Yuxi is not a domineering person. The two have different tastes. The dishes on the table are half light and half Yun Qing likes to eat, which is considered balanced.
How could Yun Qing not know Yuxi's problem, and said, "This girl, she must be a picky eater. In this regard, jujube is very good."
Yuxi couldn't help but complain, and said, "What's so good? Isn't it the same as you." Zaozao is also a meatless master, but the only difference is that what Zaozao eats now is decided by Yuxi, and he does it himself. Don't be the master.
Upon seeing this, Yun Qing said hurriedly, "Stop talking, eat, eat."
Yuxi especially likes to eat with Yun Qing, and she has an appetite watching Yun Qing eat. But when it's time to say something, you still have to say: "Eat slowly, I have told you so many times, but I always don't listen." The meal was just as if someone robbed it and gobbled it up. However, Yuxi's words are still useful. After a long time, Yun Qing's eating speed is not as fast as before.
There were four dishes and one soup. When Yuxi had no fighting power, there was not much left on the table.
After eating, the two went back to the house to talk. Yun Qing said: "Just got the news, the rebels have retreated back to Nancheng. Ji Xuan can't attack for a long time, and he is now in a stalemate." Yun Qing knew that Ji Xuan would not fight, so he didn't say anything wasteful.
Yuxi frowned and said, "The strength of the rebels is pretty good." It was enough to see their ability to retreat to Nancheng.
Yun Qing said: "The fighting strength of the rebels is much worse than that of the regular army, but their morale is very high, and they are not afraid of death." If it weren't for the spirit of fear of death, these people would have died out.
Yuxi said the truth: "As far as Ji Xuan, ordinary people can kill, and these rebels can be better if they fall in his hands. Anyway, they are all dead, it is better to fight to the death."
Yun Qing agreed with these words and said: "Ji Xuan has ordered that all captured rebels be executed on the spot." Ji Xuan did this to deter the surrounding people and bandits, so that they dare not act rashly. But the disadvantage of doing so is also very big, that is, these rebels fight for nothing at all. It's also because the power gap between the two parties is too great, otherwise it's really impossible to say who loses and who wins.
When Yuxi heard this, her face was ugly. Looking at Yun Qing, he said, "Herui, killing prisoners is the most immoral and has great consequences. In the future, you must never kill prisoners." Killing prisoners not only bears the charge of bloodthirsty, but also allows those who are talented to learn. People stay away from them. Just look at Yun Qing as a second-rank general but can't even recruit a decent staff member.
Yuxi had told Yun Qing many times about the serious consequences of killing prisoners. The main reason was that Yun Qing's reputation for slaughtering the city in his previous life was so great that Yuxi had a psychological shadow, so he said twice more.
Yun Qing said, "Don't worry, I won't kill the captives in the future." The reason why Yun Qing was so bloodthirsty in his last life was that he couldn't control his emotions. Secondly, Huo Changqing and Xu Wu and other brothers were also taken by Beibei. The captive was killed, and he had a deep hatred of the northern barbarians. Now that Yuxi has been talking about him, and most of Huo Changqing and the brothers around him are doing well, his mentality has naturally changed. It's just these, Yuxi doesn't know.
Yuxi said: "You can't do it yourself, you have to let your subordinates do it." The reputation of killing prisoners is too ugly.
Yun Qing smiled and said, "Don't worry, they don't dare." He gave an order not to kill the prisoners, and no one dared to disobey the order.
Xu Wu said outside: "General, the prefect of Xinping City, Tan Zhifu sent someone to deliver a letter." Tan Tuo has Yunqing as his backing, and he is no longer afraid to look forward and backward when he does things. All the malpractices and bad ethos of Xinping City will be eliminated. Under his management, Xinpingcheng's taxation has been overturned compared to previous years, which is not something ordinary people can do.
After reading the letter, Yun Qing handed it to Yuxi blankly and said, "Look at it!" The harvest in various places this year was not good, and there was less food in Xinping City, Luck Road, and many people had no food to spend the winter. Tan Tuo knew that Yun Qing had food in his hand, so he wanted to borrow 30,000 shi of food to help the people in the city.
After reading the letter, Yuxi smiled and said, "Tan Tuo loves the people like a child." How dare to ask for military food, how courageous!
After hearing this, Yun Qing said, "As far as the grain and grass in our hands are concerned, it will be more than enough to eat until the beginning of spring next year! Together with the batch of grain in Feng Dajun's hands, we will be able to eat it until the harvest next summer." Obviously, this grain can be borrowed.
Yuxi shook his head and said, "This grain cannot be borrowed." It was not that she was cold-blooded and ruthless, but that she could not set this precedent. There is no rule without rules, and the rules cannot be broken.
Yun Qing was a little surprised. When Yuxi said just now, he thought he agreed to borrow grain: "If you don't borrow grain, the people of Xinping City will starve to death because there is no grain." Naturally, it is impossible for Yun Qing to turn from killing gods to good people. He said this just to remind Yuxi that he would not blame himself for it in the future.
Yuxi said: "Good deeds should be done, but it also depends on the situation. Our food is of great use." If there is food, even if we recruit soldiers in the future, we will not worry about not having enough food.
Yun Qing agreed to borrow grain, also because of Yuxi. Since Yuxi was unwilling, he naturally stopped talking about it.
Tan Tuo got news a few days later, knowing that Yun Qing and Yuxi refused to borrow grain. Tan Tuo asked: "Who refused?"
The sender said: "General Yun refused. General Yun said that there is no such precedent." This reason is also reasonable.
Tan Tuo asked, "Where's Mrs. Yun? Does Mrs. Yun have anything to say?"
The visitor shook his head and said, "I don't know about this humble post. I didn't see Mrs. Yun at the humble post." Only the army asked the locals for money and food, and their prefect dared to ask for food from General Yun, although they did not borrow the food. But their prefect is still a great man. Others don't have the guts.
After Tan Tuo waved it down, he said, "Go down!" This time Tan Tuo borrowed grain, in fact, he was trying. He felt that Yun Qing's behavior was abnormal. For example, the eight hundred cavalry sent out had been out for several months, but they hadn't come back. In addition, the third batch of grain has been on the road for half a year, and it hasn't arrived yet. Various signs gave Tan Tuo bad speculations.
Tan Ming looked at his master’s solemn expression and said, “My lord, the warehouse also stores some grain. As long as it is properly placed, it shouldn’t kill too many people.” In July, Tan Tuo sent someone to Taiyuan to purchase a batch of grain. . Although the quantity is small, there are some reserves.
Tan Tuo shook his head and said, "I'm not worried about this." It is difficult to cure a person without freezing to death and starving to death.
Tan Ming was a little strange, and asked, "What is the lord worried about?"
Tan Tuo said, "I'm worried about Yun Qing and Mrs. Yun." Seeing Tan Ming's puzzled look, Tan Tuo said, "I'm worried that they are planning the entire Northwest."
Tan Ming was taken aback, but after thinking about it, he felt reasonable. Tan Ming said: "My lord, if this is the case, wouldn't the people in the northwest have a good life?"
Tan Tuo didn't expect to get such a reply: "How can you be sure that they will succeed?" If Yun Qing and his wife really plan to go to the northwest, the people will indeed have a good life. Tan Tuo does not deny this. But if you try to rebel, you will lose your head if you are not careful.
Tan Ming said with a smile; "How powerful is General Yun, but Ji Xuan is his opponent." Yun Qing fought so well, as long as he dispatched troops, Ji Xuan would finish playing immediately.
Tan Tuo shook his head and said, "It's so easy! Besides Ji Xuan, there are rebels!" And if Yun Qing used improper means to rule the northwest, the court would definitely send an army to suppress.
Tan Ming felt that Tan Tuo was worried too much: "My lord, if the court's army is useful, the Northwest will not be in such a mess." Hearing this, he knew that Tan Ming was a loyal supporter of Yun Qing.
After Tan Tuo heard this, a relaxed smile appeared on his face, and he said: "Sometimes, you really shouldn't think too much." Thinking too much will make him fall into a dead end instead.
Tan Ming said, "My lord, it is not our turn to worry about the affairs of General Yun and his wife. You, you should worry about the big girl." The big girl is nineteen after the Chinese New Year, and she hasn't decided yet. I'm about to die in a hurry.
Tan Tuo said, "It's not the time yet." He is actually from Yun Qing now. If Yun Qing succeeded in rebelling, he would naturally rise, and then his daughter would be able to match a good relationship. As for failure, life is gone, and nothing else needs to be said.
Tan Tuo suddenly realized, and said: "It turns out that the adult wants such a long-term vision!" It is also the wife's temperament, or the adult will not hide it from her.
