Chapter 89: Eighty-nine baby

The two old people came knocking on the door, Xu Zhen heard it, and went out to see. At the door, there are two women, one old and one young, wearing Chinese clothes, carrying wine in their hands, two pieces of jade tied around their waists, drawing moth eyebrows, applying face makeup, and smiling at Xu Zhen.
Xu Zhen couldn't recognize the two with heavy makeup. After looking at her figure for a long time, she felt like she had guessed something. She was about to ask.
The elderly stepped forward and said in a vague voice: "Mr. Xu, it is me, do you remember me?"
Xu Zhen heard the sound familiar, slightly surprised.
The old man continued: "Three years ago, I picked up a lamp and invited you to Chang'an. Later, the number of meetings was much less. Mr. Xu, I haven't seen you for a long time."
Xu Zhen has heard the voice, isn't this the old lady who pulled her to become an official!
She asked in surprise: "Is it a woman? Come in." She greeted the two of them into the house, and the two of them seemed unwilling to show their faces outside and walked in quickly.
This old man is the former emperor's teacher and old woman.
And that young woman, Xu Zhen is also very familiar. This man was a girl who ran over to ask Xu Zhen on the first day and asked her if the world could be repaired.
At that time, Xu Zhen felt that she had heard this person's speech, and now that she and the old lady were walking together, she was even more certain that this person recognized her.
Xu Zhen carefully observed behind.
The young woman felt her eyes and turned to look at Xu Zhen. She was wearing a light pink underskirt with a variety of silk on her belt and hem. She had a thick white powder on her face. Her cheeks were embellished with peach and her eyebrows were painted a little.
After meeting Xu Zhen's gaze, she smiled and asked in a clear voice: "Are you guessing, who am I?"
Xu Zhen nodded when she said that, but by this time she had heard the voice of this person. If she heard correctly, this should be the county master.
Xu Zhen was not sure. After all, the two had limited contact. Her impression of the lord was still in the heavy rain of the royal palace. When the two were talking through the rain curtain, the lord was small and combed her horns. With a look of arrogance and ambition, I did not expect that the county governor grew up with a bright feeling.
The governor saw Xu Zhen's eyes and asked again: "You recognize it?"
Xu Zhen asked cautiously: "Are you the county master?"
The master said with a smile: "It's me."
Xu Zhen was a little embarrassed and said a few words, the two went into the house together.
The earthen house is not big, just three rooms. In the past few days, Xu Zhen and Xun Qianchun took care of the rooms and opened two of them as a place to entertain guests. The remaining room was reserved for sleeping and reading.
After Jiangling entered the summer, the weather was gloomy from time to time as a sign of rain. It was almost noon, and the sky was dark again, unable to transmit light in all directions. The whole room was dim, so I had to greet guests with a palm light during the day.
Xun Qianchun stood up in the room, her white robe hung down on the ground, her black straight hair spread around her waist, lit a candle, and then saw the old lady and the lord, and greeted the old lady.
The old lady said quickly, "I'm disturbing the King of Zhenbei." The candle wick in the room made a crackling sound. The old lady looked around and saw Xian Qianchun's neck with a dark red mark when she looked up. At first she didn't react. Then she realized what the trace was and thought of the relationship between Xun Qianchun and Mr. Xu, Immediately, his old face turned red, and his eyes didn't know where to put it.
These two, really for each other, do not want the role of Jiangshan.
The old woman sighed.
No one spoke in the house.
The four had already sat down around the case. Xu Zhen sat cross-legged. The master took the sake and poured it into a glass and gave it to several people. While drinking, the four people talked about the recent weather, ideas such as reform, and Tian Shi.
After the greeting, the old lady opened the door and asked Xu Zhen: "We want to attack Yecheng, how does Mr. Xu feel?"
Xu Zhen was drinking, and the drink was already choking. This sudden problem caused her to cough several times. After a moment of embarrassment, she hurriedly put down her cup and said, "The place sounds good, but I'm not very familiar with it, and why did you attack Yecheng?"
The old lady smiled and said, "Mr. is too self-humiliating. You don't know that among the counselors, the reputation of the sir is the highest."
Xu Zhen was stunned: "My fame? What fame do I have?"
The old lady said: "You are Mr. Li Sanlang and Ge Xi'er's teacher, that's enough." Then the old lady said, "Mr. had ended his rehab earlier, and came to seclusion in Jiangling. , Just want some suggestions."
Xu Zhen nodded and quickly added: "I know too little, and I can't give you any good advice."
The old lady smiled and said: "Mr. does not have to be pretentious. Now that the situation is turbulent, the northern part of the Yellow River is hardly under control. Unfortunately, we have limited energy. I am afraid that we can only capture one city. "
Ye Cheng is facing a remote place to the north of Chang'an, which is not a good place. Xu Zhen didn't understand what the old lady wanted to do at first, but after a moment's thought, she soon understood.
The old woman wanted to conquer Yi Di.
If it is successfully conquered, it is naturally good. If it cannot be conquered, then this piece of land is also sufficient to isolate the links between the big powers, preventing people from constantly encroaching on the surroundings and expanding their power. At the same time, the Yellow River can also be used as a natural conveyor belt for transporting soldiers and horses. The county master is located too far northwest. If you want the world to be unified, you really need to find a foothold in the east.
After thinking carefully, Xu Zhen said, "It is better to attack a place farther away."
The old woman was stunned for a while, and asked a few days later: "Why do you say that?"
Xu Zhen sat by the side and explained: "Near Yidi, no one except you should be able to see it. Everyone's mind is annexing a small country, or lobbying on top of it, the foreign enemy is put aside, so the group Yi Di will not expect that you will attack, and even if it is attacked, others will think that this is just a backcountry, unwilling to fight, so you will occupy two corners on the chess board, seizing more than others Opportunity."
The old lady was also worried that she would fight the grass and startle the snake. Xu Zhen came up with another idea and asked her to take advantage of Changan to attack the petite concubine and kill Wuheng all the way.
The old lady thought it made sense, but hesitated for a moment, not knowing whether something should be said.
She is tangled.
The wine glasses on the table were empty and quickly filled again.
The old woman has not spoken yet.
The lord said it directly.
The governor said: "It is impossible to borrow Chang'an. Concubine has been forced into the palace. Now Chang'an is blocked again and no one can enter."
When this sentence came down, Xu Zhen was shocked: "What's wrong with Princess Concubine?"
The sheriff looked at her in confusion and repeated, "I was forced into a palace and imprisoned."
This time, not only Xu Zhen, but also Xun Qianchun's complexion changed. After all, the two met acquaintance Cong Fei, and Chong Fei was also a friend of Xiao Hua, who was detained? Xu Zhen thought it was incredible.
The master of the county did not know the thoughts of the two of them, and still said there: "Therefore, Chang'an is in turmoil, so I can take this opportunity to attack Yecheng or Wuheng. We are allies, so you should go back to the north of the town and borrow me to give you soldiers and horses." Her second sentence is to Xun Qianchun.
But now, Xu Zhen and Xun Qianchun have little intention to listen to the alliance.
Favored concubine? Xu Zhen didn't know what Xiaohua thought, but in her, since the concubine was a friend of Xiaohua Hua, she had helped herself before and provided clues to Xun's family. Then I must help.
Now here is the Jiangnan Xiao Beggar's site. The soldiers and horses with little flowers are too slow to move. The only remaining ones are the old ladies and the county master.
Xu Zhen thought for a moment and said to the old lady: "I think there is a nice place besides Yecheng and Wuheng."
The old lady saw that Xu Zhen had just reacted and guessed a little, and asked, "Chang'an?"
Xu Zhen nodded and coaxed: "It's there. I didn't know the inside story before, but now I know that it is indeed better for Chang'an."
The old lady didn't say anything, she thought everything Xu Zhen said was correct.
Xu Zhen took the advantage of continuing to say: "It was just proposed, maybe it will be all over again."
The old lady nodded her head and gave it to Xu Zhen. She and Xu Zhen made an appointment at noon for two days before leaving with the county master.
Above the case, there were three or four wine glasses. The sake could not be consumed. The bitter taste of the wine was lost in the air. Xun Qianchun's eyes dropped, and he seemed to be thinking about things in his hand.
Xu Zhen knew what she was thinking, and leaned in and whispered, "Will you go back to Chang'an and save your sister, sister?"
Xun Qianchun had just thought about this. She frowned, looked at Xu Zhen for a moment, and nodded.
