The rain is gradually decreasing.
The meeting in the Xiangfu study went on for more than half an hour, and then gradually walked out of the formal content and became more casual.
For these aides in the prime minister's mansion, each has their own responsibility. At this stage, most of the problems are not conceptual, but the promotion and combination of many specific matters. This morning meeting was mainly because of Ning Yi's return, everyone talked about the current situation, and then saw if there was anything that could be communicated and cooperated with.
Ning Yi currently manages funds in the Prime Minister's Mansion, manages the buds of public opinion propaganda, and also manages a large number of relationships in the shopping mall - although the funds are considered as the private property of the Prime Minister's Mansion, the germination of public opinion is not something that the Prime Minister's mansion is responsible for, but the relationship in the shopping malls. It can only be said that it is a private exchange, and all things cannot be brought to the official face, but the advancement of many serious affairs in the Prime Minister's Mansion really needs this kind of private involvement to intervene. Ning Yi's cooperation with the crowd was a familiar one.
Of course, before he came back, the cooperation between everyone and Ning Yi did not make any difference. At this time, when he returned to Bianliang, these things were of course just a greeting, which made him know. In fact, recently, the results of the martial arts test are about to come out. Everyone is secretly robbing people, trying to push the right people into the right position one by one. It will analyze whether it can be used by coercion, and it is trivial, overtly and secretly, but since it has already happened, it can only be done according to the current situation. If it is not done, it will only get worse.
After the necessary things were discussed, everyone sat down to have tea and chat. Speaking of the situation in Jin Guo, everyone also felt a little confusing.
"...Agu died only after he took the throne. After Wu Qimai succeeded to the throne, he put aside his battles and stabilized the government. This is what can be seen at the moment. Now there is a saying in the courtroom, and some people believe that after Wu Qimai stabilizes the government, he will tell me The Wu Dynasty attacked and insisted on taking advantage of the unstable foundations of the Jin Kingdom. It took over the rest of the Liao Kingdom in large numbers. Some people believed that the core military and political members of the Jin Kingdom were insufficient to invade the south, but if we went too far, the Jin Kingdom would have no choice. Therefore, the extermination of Liaoning has now been completed. Both of us should start doing business with sincerity. Tang Qinsuo, Geng Xidao and others all hold this view. Several major forces that can affect the court inside and outside also advocate it. It is also reasonable to think that the next year will be a critical moment in determining the attitudes of the two sides in the future."
After Yao Zunian said this, he took a sip of tea. Qin Siyuan continued to speak from behind the desk.
"After all, right now, it's hard for us to see clearly how Jin Guo will go next. I have reflected on many things in the past, and now I'm a little disgusted by these petty fights. Your strength is enough, originally Those who want to hit you will also come to do business, but if they don’t have enough strength, they will jump around again. Those with good intentions will also feel that they have to hit you. It’s just that in today’s court, there are many such ideas, and there are also some in the saints. Tendency to…”
The old man paused and picked up the teacup: "After A Gu was beaten to death, the one who succeeded was not the eldest son, but the elder brother. The power of the Taizu lineage is still very heavy, including Zong Han, including Xi Yin, who are the most able to fight and play a pivotal role in the Jin Kingdom. Many people took the opportunity to write a book, and asked the sage to take this as a reference, yes At this time, Jin Guo started. These speculators are the most hateful..."
Ning Yi ate the cake: "In any case, no matter whether there is a possibility of fighting in the future, there is always the power to fight thousands of miles away."
"Anyone who sees and talks should have it, but looking at the past battles, they have no confidence. I don't know how much preparation should be done..."
After Jin destroys Liao and Agu beats to death, all the situation seems a bit illusory. Whether the other party will call is a strange question. Because no matter from any perspective, the Yanyun six states outside Yanmen Pass, tens of thousands of troops, plus the ever-expanding Guo Yaoshi's Changsheng Army, are enough to fight a major war. In terms of the distance from Yanmen Pass to the capital, the number of hundreds of thousands, including the regular army, recruiters like Dong Pang'er, and the army that was pressed on thousands of miles of land after Tan Zhen recruited the An Zhao, was so huge. At first glance, most people have an illusion - they don't know what they are preventing.
But on the other hand, if the Liao Kingdom fell to the ground, the many internal shortcomings of the Wu Dynasty itself, and the various reasons that can be said and cannot be said, if added up, no one can actually "against the Jin Kingdom" proposition. , generates too much confidence.
Everything was too fast. The Jin Kingdom overthrew the Liao Kingdom in a few years and has become the real opponent of the Wu Dynasty. And no matter which proposition: hit you, don’t hit you, beat you, can’t beat you—there are too many reasons and too many flaws in any conclusion, because there are too many factors, on the contrary, no idea can be calculated, and it even seems absurd.
Just like this time, after the end of the martial arts, everyone began to operate the layout. The Prime Minister's House tried to consolidate a line of defense in the north in this chaotic situation. But on the one hand, is it really necessary to do so much? Starting from Yanmen Pass, no matter who is defending this huge line of defense, it should be enough. And on the other hand, does it make sense to do so? Because it seems that the entire line of defense for thousands of miles does not seem to be very reliable. No matter how solid a bubble you consolidate, it will only be a bubble in the end.
Once they start to think about this issue, everyone will feel that they are standing on a line that fluctuates violently. It is possible to go in any direction, and in any direction, they will rush to the end with the trend of destroying the dead. Everyone seems to be making illusory efforts for an illusory thing, and waiting for the moment when it condenses into reality.
And if you really want to think about the end rationally, everything stems from one reason: the bayonet is about to see blood, no matter what the sentence that comes down, I am afraid there is not much that can be done next, and it cannot play a decisive role.
"Autumn is coming to an end, and I feel like I'm doing everything I can." After walking out of the room, under the eaves, Monk Jue Ming chatted with Ning Yi and smiled. Ning Yi also smiled: "There should be time."
"The love of the world. Many years ago. When everyone talked about the situation in the Liao Kingdom, they would not think of the situation today. The scorpion clock is about to be revealed. I don't know whether to kill or compensate." Middle-aged The monk looked at the waterline under the eaves, "However, the books mentioned in the Liheng Building are very interesting. I like martial arts."
"Wow, I didn't expect the master to be so cheesy..."
Ning Yi smiled, Yao Zunian walked over and stood under the eaves together. He smiled and said, "This monk is not very clever in the first place."
The crowd chatted for a while.
All the way home. The rain had just stopped, and there was moist air all around, and water was still dripping under the eaves and on the leaves. For the teachers waiting here. Ning Yi was a little surprised. But see him back. Tan'er then led Ning Xi away, leaving space for the two of them.
"I thought Liheng would never come back." Shishi looked at him and smiled, "I came to look for you several times. But I couldn't find it."
"There are some things in the north, which took a lot of time, but why don't you come back, after all, my home is here."
The side hall where the guests were entertained faced the small garden, Ning Yi poured tea for her, the teacher lowered his head and fell silent, took a sip with his sleeves covered, raised his head and looked at Ning Yi for a while before whispering: "The disaster is over. "
"Ah." Ning Yi nodded, "As you can see, the autumn harvest is over, and the matter is over."
"I sometimes go out of the city to see those beggars and give them some food." In front of the warm window, the two of them spoke calmly, and the teacher said while thinking, "The disaster is gone, they will not be able to go back after all. already."
Ning Yi thought for a while: "The world is like this."
The teacher's eyes looked at him: "Is Liheng just thinking like this?"
"I think too much is not happy, the meaning of life, I think, it is best to stay between three or five people, and also stop in three or five years. Except for the closest people, don't think about thirty or fifty years." Ning Yi said The answer was flat, "It should make you happier, otherwise, no matter how you think about it, it will not make people feel at ease."
The teacher lowered her head and drank the tea. After a while, she looked at the small garden outside the window before she said, "What Li Heng did in the Prime Minister's Mansion, did it stop between three or five people? ?"
Ning Yi laughed: "Most of the three or five people I care about are behind this yard."
"...Sister-in-law Tan'er and the others are really happy." The teacher laughed heartily.
She was silent for a long time, then remembered other emotions, and sighed: "I shouldn't have thought about it, after all, I have thought about it."
"I heard that you rejected Zhou Meicheng's proposal."
"Liheng thinks I should agree?" The teacher looked at him again, and then said, "Not only his, but many people have also rejected it, and I know it's not good. But starting this year, I always feel that Some things are about to change, I am getting older, and I am about to get married. When I think about it in the past, I thought it was just the same thing, but when I think about it now, I always feel empty. When I was fourteen, I lived in the courtyard of the Fanlou Building and felt that People are everywhere, I live there, and I always feel like I'm there. As long as I'm there, the yard is full. People come to chat with me, complain to me, listen to me play the piano and sing, and spend money on me. When there was no one, I was there alone, and I lived there, but suddenly, everything seemed to have changed. I used to be able to think clearly…”
She clenched her fists with both hands and placed them on the edge of the table, her words gradually became faster, and her eyes became blank.
"Now I am alone in the yard, as if the yard is not mine anymore. Mama Li is very kind to me, and she is also considerate to me when she persuades me to marry. When people look at me, they will see each other in a few months and half a year. It doesn't feel like me. It's like a month or a few months later, I won't be in that yard, I don't know where, maybe in an unfamiliar house, an unfamiliar bed, with me for the rest of my life Unfamiliar man…”
Shishi closed her eyes, a few tears came out from there, she bit her lip, and then smiled again as if to cheer herself up.
"That's why I went to see those beggars and do some... good deeds. I have done these things before, and if I am doing them in the future, it seems that things have not changed much." The room was silent, only her words, After a moment of silence, she took a breath, "Actually, Liheng doesn't care much about these things, right? But I think you must understand... Others may not understand."
Ning Yi poured tea for her: "There should be a lot of people who understand. I got married a long time ago, and I have forgotten all the things before the marriage. But even if I didn't forget, I was a nerd at the beginning and didn't have any family, so it shouldn't be much. important."
Shishi looked at him: "Liheng is doing a lot of important things right now, right?"
"It's all messy things, and I can't tell."
"Are you still fighting with those grain merchants?"
"Oh, how can I keep fighting."
"But will they still be in trouble?"
Ning Yi laughed: "...Occasionally...that one does."
The teacher also laughed. After all, the distance between the two is not far, nor is it close. Although the teacher's expression is smiling, it looks a little lonely. After drinking the cup of tea, she stood up.
"I've been thinking a little bit recently, and I don't know who to talk to. Today's words are a bit presumptuous..."
Ning Yi shook his head: "I can still understand."
"I had some words with my sister-in-law earlier. If Liheng has been staying in Bianliang recently, and you want to talk about business, you might as well go to Fanlou and sit down. Little sister... Recently, I have been turning down invitations, but if it is Liheng's business , must not push."
"Oh, I know, if you have nothing to do, you can come to the house for a walk and sit. Of course, Tan'er is a person, so be careful not to be sold by her."
He sent the teacher to the door, and when he spoke, the teacher blessed him with a bright smile, and then left a little lonely. Ning Yi smiled under the eaves. He probably understood what was bothering this "childhood friend", but he really couldn't solve these things.
And on my side, things are overwhelming like a mountain.
But it doesn't matter, everything is just fine. After all, the real big thing is not here.
He went back all the way, through the eaves, the courtyard gate, and when he entered the backyard, he joined his long-lost wives and children who were waiting there. Winter is coming, and they will have a long, long time together.
And he's just like this, he doesn't plan to go out... (Please search Piao Astronomy, better and faster!
