Chapter 262: Mountain Rain

(16 points)

"After Marshal Li Tianyan Li comes back, I'm afraid there will be a small turmoil here in Hangzhou."

Taking a sip of the tea in the cup, Lou Shuwan smiled elegantly, and when she put the teacup down, the silver bracelet on her wrist touched the porcelain cup gently, making a crisp sound of "ding".

"Liheng teaches in the academy, so he may be a little indifferent, but I have also heard that the reason why this Wenlie Academy can be maintained is because there are people behind it. However, this time it may be more widespread, I heard that ...... Liheng had said some things about Qian Lao in the academy before, but now the situation is sensitive, and it may have to be brought up again, so Liheng should be careful...... But that's okay. The Lou family can now say something in Hangzhou, although ...... Liheng may look down on him for various reasons, but if there is something, Liheng may be able to inform a few words, and the little sister may be able to help, I hope Liheng does not need to be ......"

Since the reunion at the banquet of the hundred officials, this is Lou Shuwan's fifth visit. Although the previous reputation outside was not good, if you really want to give people a good impression, women like Lou Shuwan are not people who will be directly disgusted, they behave generously and decently, and they are quite measured. According to her, the Lou family also has some industry here, and they used to come over to take care of it. After the war, in Hangzhou, she actually lost many people she knew, and now that she has met again, she will move around a lot in the future.

In this way, when I came to the door for the third time, it seemed much more natural, Lou Shuwan was not hypocritical, and directly sent some daily necessities needed by everyone and some ancient books or painting scrolls, which were probably precious collections in Hangzhou in the past.

"It's not worth much now, in the first month or two of the war, the burning was smashed, and the people who knew the goods were killed. No matter how expensive these things are, they can't be worth a bowl of rice. The Lou family took the opportunity to search for a lot of this, to be honest, they originally wanted to give it away......" Lou Shuwan laughed when she said this, but she was also a little lonely, "However, even if there are a few scholars in the righteous army, they won't like this very much, if you give him ten boxes of this, it is better to send a box of gold and silver, and they also know that Lu Dao is very valuable, but ...... I can't think of it. ”

When she said this, she laughed again: "A month ago, General Pan Wende Pan from Xiying robbed a big mansion and rebuilt it, saying that there was nothing at home, so let me send some calligraphy, paintings, antiques or something." We hurriedly found a box of the most valuable ones to send, and General Pan was very unhappy later, saying that the Lou family could send such a little thing, and the walls of a room were not hung up, and they were all old. We hurriedly sent two boxes of gold and silver to the past before the people were angry, and a few days later, there was also a general who wanted to paint and calligraphy antiques, we directly put together ten boxes, the general said, this painting of dragons and phoenixes is better than that of General Pan...... In fact, ten boxes are not worth a few taels of silver......"

"Later, I thought about it, anyway, people don't look down on it, so I don't have to put a hot face on someone's cold buttocks, and I won't send this in the future. But these things are also dark in our house. Liheng is a person who knows the goods, so he will take it to play, now this situation is a trivial matter, Liheng should not shirk with the little sister is ......"

It is difficult to guess what kind of scene Lou Shuwan had with those scholars and talents in the past, but in this kind of post-war siege where everyone is in danger, the Lou family is thriving and ascending to the sky, but this Lou family lady, who has more status than in the past, has put on a real gentleman's friendship and a light attitude to interact with people. If Ning Yi was really the kind of down-and-out talent, he might have been impressed by the other party's demeanor and mind, and even if he was sober-minded, in this kind of situation where one more help was a help, Ning Yi would naturally not completely refuse the kindness of others. ..., everything became more natural for the next two times, and after I learned that Ning Yi told Qian Xiwen in the academy, Lou Shuwan also laughed at herself a few times that her own power was nothing. In fact, this is not a fake, even if she is not a female talent, Lou Shuwan is quite yearning for things like literati and integrity, if it weren't for this, she would not always be in the literati circle in the past. And this time, it brought the news that Li Tianyan was coming back. She was impressed by Ning Yi, but the investigation was not in-depth, if she could know the real reason why Ning Yi was arrested or the festival between Li Tianyou and Ning Yi, what she said at this time would probably not be these words.

"Uh, how do you know about it?" When she said those words, Ning Yi was in the room and conveniently filed two pieces of news sent by a personal guard of the Badao Battalion, he also knew about the news that Li Tianyan was coming back, and there were also speculations about what would happen next, but these speculations came out of Lou Shuwan's mouth, which really surprised him.

"I heard that in the past, there were Zhao'an factions among the rebels...... Lou Shuwan lowered her voice, "It's just Fang La...... The momentum of the rebel army is getting bigger and bigger, especially after the defeat of Hangzhou as the emperor, it is naturally impossible to recruit An. Some of these people change their minds and go down willingly, while others don't show their thoughts again. But all along, the upper side is very dammed against these people. It's just that the country has just been established, and the foundation is unstable, and it is impossible to clean up and down from now on, but for more than a month, the rumors of these things have actually been very tight, large and small incidents, because of this kind of thing, many people have been killed. My brother said, Marshal Li Tianyan came back this time, and he might be going to make a big one, so I'm a little worried that Liheng will affect you......"

"Brother...... Your second brother? ”

"It's the eldest brother, his name is Shuwang...... Oh, Liheng, you've seen it once. ”

“…… Oh. ”

When it was getting dusk, Lou Shuwan walked out of the small courtyard where Ning Yi was on Xiliu Street, got into the carriage, and the road was full of people, and the carriage passed towards the adjacent streets and alleys in the sunset, and then disappeared from view. In the courtyard, Xiaochan packed up the tea set and talked to Ning Yi under the courtyard corridor, Ning Yi also smiled and replied a few words, occasionally waving his hand to draw a few circles in the air, and Xiaochan was amused. After a while, Ning Yi picked up a few papers, passed the medical hall from the side door of the courtyard, and walked all the way in the direction of the main courtyard of the Badao Battalion.

The classes at Wenli College had already dispersed at noon, and there were no children chattering, and everything seemed quiet and leisurely in the magnificent light of dusk. The road from this side to the main courtyard passed between the courtyards, and it was already full of people, but at this time, most of the people here were women and children, and some members of the Badao Battalion had already returned from work, and some knew Ning Yi, so they waved hello to him, and some children saw him and came to salute and chatter.

The children knew that he was a gentleman, but most of them still liked him, the most important thing was that after Ning Yi arrived here, they also had a lot of stories to listen to. Some of them were said by Ning Yi himself when he had nothing to do, and some were said in class and passed on by word of mouth. In short, everyone knows that he is a person who has a bunch of interesting stories in his belly.

In the past, he was not a frivolous and lively person, of course he wanted to be humorous, but the direction of humor was mostly a little deep. I never imagined that I would become a character loved by many children today. He doesn't think he's a good teacher, but he's interested in all sorts of strange changes that have taken place in others after being influenced by him. According to some of the novels he had read in the past, many people who existed as the Great Demon King would have such a bad taste. ..., sometimes think about it, my current situation is quite bad, and I shouldn't have this illusion that it doesn't match my identity......

Every day, when I go to the main house of the Badao Battalion, I am already familiar with it. After dealing with the matter, it was already dark, the lights in the courtyard were lit, the aroma of stir-fried vegetables came from every house, reflecting the clothes hanging between each courtyard, and the children's running, quite the atmosphere of an ancient farmer. Many families set up tables in the courtyard, greet one or two friends, chat and eat. Ning Yi is often invited, mostly greeted by Liu Tiannan and others, after all, he is the big butler of the Badao Battalion, and he has close exchanges with Ning Yi, and if some of the people who follow Liu Dabiao are familiar with Ning Yi, they will also know that Lu Dao is quite easy to get along with him.

"Li Shuai is coming back, I'm afraid Hangzhou City has not been peaceful recently. Liheng, you know the way, try to go out as little as possible, if there is something, you might as well inform a small kill or Ah Chang, and arrange more people to follow. Safety first. ”

asked her daughter to inform Xiaochan that Ning Yi was not going home for dinner, when Liu Tiannan beckoned Ning Yi to sit down, there were already five other people in the courtyard, including Du Kill and Ah Chang who "killed people to pay for their lives" around Liu Dabiao, Chen Fan, An Xifu who had seen one or two sides, and the other person was a deputy under Liu Tiannan, named Liu Shuangmu, Ning Yi knew him, but he was not familiar with him.

Nodding and saying hello to a few people, Ning Yi sat down with a smile and took the wine glass handed over by Liu Tiannan: "I heard that Li Shuai is always heavy, so he won't do anything out of the ordinary for me, a little person." ”

Liu Tiannan shook his head and said: "It's hard to say, I'm afraid that he is coming with a big trend." ”

"If you come with the general trend, you won't do it privately, and everyone will know in advance."

The two said these words, and Liu Shuangmu on the side frowned: "What is the general trend?" ”

"The Great Purge that's going to happen recently."

Mr. Ning...... Haven't you always been dealing with foreign affairs......" Liu Shuangmu wondered, "How do you know about Lu Dao?" ”

There are a series of things that may be caused by Li Tianyan's return to the city, obviously Liu Shuangmu also understands that what he is wondering about is obviously not what happened, but why Ning Yi knows it, Liu Tiannan patted him on the shoulder, and Ning Yi also glanced at him: "Recently, several businesses and relationships in the village have changed. Xiao Jinjian and Guo Yan were all Zhao'an factions in the past, and the news of Li Shuai's return was not very tightly sealed, and with the battle situation in the north, things were not difficult to think about...... After all, numbers don't falsify. ”

Chen Fan drank a glass of wine and shrugged his shoulders: "Don't think about it, since this guy is involved, the matter can't be hidden from him." Either you have this mental preparation, or Shuangmu, how about you kill him? ”

Ning Yi laughed: "Why hasn't the above issued a decree to hang all the unemployed vagrants?" Since he stepped down as the boss of the chengguan, Chen Fan is basically no different from a jobless vagrant.

An Xifu listened for a while over there and asked, "What does Mr. Ning think of the war in the north?" ”

The two don't have much contact, but basically they have already fought once in Huzhou, Ning Yi glanced at him: "I can't guess much, speaking of which, Jiaxing will definitely not be able to fight, right." ”

This was an understatement, but Liu Tiannan did not have any trouble, and nodded: "Well, Tong Guan led the troops, and the siege of the city has been resolved." ”

"Fang Qifo probably doesn't want to come back, July and August between the grain harvest, from Hangzhou to Jiaxing, has always been the land of fish and rice. The so-called three armies did not move the grain and grass first, everyone can harvest it, and if it can't be collected, it will naturally be burned, and Tong Guan has many troops, and the logistics needs of the military line are also strong. This way...... Probably planning to take the city to fight. That's the thing, right? Quite a few words"

No one answered this time, Ning Yi smiled: "I just harvested the grain, and if Hangzhou City is not broken, it will last for a long time." Even if the siege of Hangzhou cannot be solved, as long as this side is supported, the pressure on the court from outside will be greater and greater, and the two countries in the north have already started a war, and the Wu Dynasty will also send troops to the north to the north, dragging the 150,000 army in the south of the Yangtze River, and it is possible to ...... Drag the court down. That's all I can guess. ..., Ning Yi thought for a while: "Before the Yongle Dynasty was established, it was impossible to kill the heads of a group of people immediately, which made people panic, but since it was necessary to strengthen the wall and prepare to defend the city, whether the city could be twisted into a rope became the most important thing." I heard that Li Shuai was stable, so he led his troops back to clean up a batch, which could also better stabilize the situation in Hangzhou. Political struggle, that's probably what it looks like. ”

What Ning Yi is dealing with in the Tyrant Battalion now is all about internal matters, related to some core secrets, or the war in the Northland, which have basically been filtered out. This is also the reason why Liu Shuangmu was surprised by him. After he said this, everyone fell silent. Chen Fan was probably the one who knew Fang Qifo's thoughts best, frowned, and asked, "Is it possible?" ”。 Naturally, it refers to the purpose of bringing down the imperial court.

Ning Yi laughed: "Everyone talks on paper, talk about speculation, I'm very good at it, if you want to take this matter seriously...... Then I don't know. There is a saying that builds a high wall, accumulates grain, and slowly becomes the king, but here, you are in a hurry to become the emperor, of course, you also have your own ideas, whether it can be done or not, it is always a matter that can only succeed after specific operations......"

Everyone, look at me, I'll look at you, not long after, Liu Tiannan said: "Build a high wall, accumulate grain, and slowly become the king, this sentence is quite reasonable, I don't know who said it......"

Ning Yi said: "Han Xin told Liu Bang. ”

At this time, he was telling Chen Fan about a poetry meeting he was going to attend the next day. In fact, Ning Yi and the spy leader named Wenren Fuji sent by Qin Lao had already had a second meeting a few days ago, and this was the location of the third meeting of the appointment with Lu, so he first made a foundation in front of Liu Tiannan and these people, and said that Lou Shuwan asked her to go - in fact, Ning Yi mentioned the poetry meeting today, and Lou Shuwan happened to say that he also had an invitation - he didn't pay much attention to the simple historical question for a while, until a group of people discussed "Han Xin originally said this ......", he thought about it seriously.

"Uh...... It seems like...... Possible...... yes......"

After a long time, the famous saying "build a high wall, accumulate grain, and slow down to become king" spread through many strange ways, and most people believed that it was the words of Ning Yi himself or his staff......

At this time, Ning Yi naturally didn't know this, in the casual conversation and laughter with everyone, he was just thinking about the poetry meeting tomorrow in his heart. In the midst of such guests and friends, the night is getting deeper. (To be continued.)
