Chapter 599: Xia Nan's Choice
Xie Sanbin is currently only the patrol of the seventh grade, although it is extremely noble, but after all, the grade is not high, from the seventh grade to the fourth grade, it can be regarded as a three-level promotion, but Xie Wenjun was not a little surprised, just asked lightly: "Well, is it the position of the governor of Denglai?" ”
Xia Nan had already sat on the chair, and when he heard this, he stood up and looked at Xie Wenjun dumbfounded, and couldn't help but think in his heart: Could it be that there was a thief in the Nanyuan Chamber and the news leaked?
Although this matter is not a secret, no matter how you look at it, it is impossible for Xie Wenjun, who is far away in Guangzhou, to know, how can he tell the truth?
Xia Nan didn't care about discussing this matter with Xie Wenjun for a while, he paced back and forth, thinking about how to conduct an internal investigation. www.biquge.info If there is really a thief, then you must find out, so as not to leak more important news in the future.
Xie Wenjun looked at his restless appearance and smiled faintly: "Do you think someone leaked the news?" ”
Xia Nan almost blurted out, admitting yes, and holding back. Everything is in the other party's calculations, which is not pleasant.
"Actually, you don't have to be nervous, no one has passed on the news to me, and the inside of your Qiongzhou camp is ironclad, and no one will betray you." Xie Wenjun stared at him and whispered, "This is just my guess. But your reaction tells me that I guessed right. ”
Xia Nanhu asked suspiciously: "Guess?" Please also ask Miss Xie for advice, there is no source, how did you guess? "He won't stop until he gets this straight.
"The Qiongzhou battalion is far away in Guangdong, but it has tried its best to take the initiative to invite Ying to come to Shandong to wade into troubled waters. And Shandong has been torn apart by mutiny and war in the past two years, what can you fancy? Come to think of it, only tens of thousands of hungry people are your target. Xie Wenjun followed his own train of thought and said, "The rise of the Qiongzhou battalion has not been a day or two, but two or three years have passed, and it is still two or three thousand land divisions, presumably not because they are afraid that the expansion will exceed the limit of the generals' troops, but there is really no one available-I asked the scribe of the governor's yamen, the Han people in the fish scale book of Qiongzhou Mansion and the Shu Li of the people of the household combined, there are only tens of thousands of people, including the old and weak, women and children, which is not much more than a county in Guangzhou. In addition, most of the fleet on this trip is empty cargo ships, and it is very likely that they will be used to transport hungry people. ”
Xia Nan slowly put his mind at ease, this analysis is meticulous and logical, indicating that it is really possible that it is not the leakage of the news, but the female Zhuge herself reasoned. He picked up the conversation and asked, "Even if it's for Dingkou, what does it have to do with Governor Denglai?" ”
"There are tens of thousands of hungry people in Shandong, and without the support of the local government, it is impossible for a foreign military general to transport them out smoothly. Although I don't know if you persuaded Governor Zhu, but no matter what, it is most convenient to transport Dingkou to the sea from Dengzhou, and the county officials are not as good as the current management, even if the governor of Shandong supports it, you have nothing to do if the governor of Denglai wants to get stuck in your neck. Therefore, getting the support of Lord Zhu is the first step, and taking down the vacant governor of Denglai is the key second step. Instead of bothering to curry favor with the future governor of Denglai, it is better to take it directly into your own hands. ”
Xia Nan admired it so much, this reasoning ability, there is no one.
Xie Wenjun finally concluded: "With the close relationship between you and your uncle, it is not difficult to pull my father onto the thief ship, and as long as the operation is done properly, it is not difficult for the inspector to sit in the position of governor of Denglai by virtue of the merit of quelling the chaos, so that Dengzhou, an important military town, is in the hands of your General Xia." ”
Xia Nan gave a thumbs up and praised: "Miss Xie, no matter what misunderstanding I have had about you before, I will say something to you today, Xia is convinced." If you are a man, it is more than enough to be an elder. This analysis and final summary are more comprehensive and thorough than I thought.
Xie Wenjun smiled, and there was a hint of unwillingness in his smile: "You also know that adding a premise, 'if it is a man's body', unfortunately, this premise will never be realized." ”
Xia Nan was thoughtful, it seems that this Miss Xie is unwilling to be an ordinary woman with a husband and children. It's no wonder that she has reached the age of marriage, but there has been no movement. With her insight and erudition, plus her family background is not bad, marrying into an ordinary official family is definitely not what she wants, and the powerful family believes that "a woman is virtuous if she is not talented", and she may not like her type, so she will be delayed after coming and going.
It's just that in the face of her uncle Mu Tianyan's secret matchmaking, should she pretend to be confused or accept it gladly?
Xia Nan also considered this issue before coming to Shandong, and the idea at that time was that in order to win over Mu Tianyan and Xie Sanbin, it would not hurt to marry Xie Wenjun. But now that he knows that Xie Wenjun is so shrewd, and has a heart and ambition that is no less than that of a man, he hesitated for a while, no man is willing to marry a strong woman who is too shrewd and capable to put in the family.
But after this thought swirled in his mind for a few seconds, Xia Nan figured it out. This is an ancient feudal society, not a modern era where men and women are equal, no matter how smart and capable a woman is, she can't show her face and take charge alone, at most she will be a virtuous helper behind the man's back. For thousands of years, China has also produced a Wu Zetian. As a traverser who has opened a hanging, is it still afraid of an ancient weak woman?
After figuring it out, Xia Nan had no scruples and said with a smile: "Miss Xie doesn't have to worry, the world is so big, there is always a place for you to display your talents." Don't talk about it from afar, let's just say that in my Qiongzhou camp, there are female stewards like Fu Nanying, and there are also female shopkeepers like Dong Mingjue......"
Xie Wenjun's eyes flashed, and he asked, "Could it be that General Feixia also wants to recruit me to be a female shopkeeper?" ”
Xia Nan smiled: "Miss Xie said that she laughed, a woman like you is a blue-hearted woman, it is overkill to be a shopkeeper, and I am reluctant to ......."
Xie Wenjun's face turned red, and his words had some ambiguous meanings.
Seeing the other party's shy reaction, Xia Nan couldn't help but think of the joke that the beast or the beast is not as good as the beast, the people have already written their hearts on their faces, and they always have to give her and Mu Tianyan and the others behind her an explanation, it is not a way to delay it so vaguely. He once again weighed the weight of the governor of Guangdong and the governor of Denglai, as well as the importance of Dengzhou to the Qiongzhou camp, and sighed in his heart, as if he didn't have too many choices.
"Miss Xie, after the war in Shandong, I will find a way to push Ling Zun to sit in the position of governor of Denglai, and then choose a good day to visit Ling Zun, so that the Xie family will be happy."
Xie Wenjun naturally knows that the so-called visit is to propose marriage, and double happiness is the two things of his father's promotion and marrying his daughter. No matter how shrewd she is, she is just a young girl, her face suddenly turned red, and she covered her face and said, "You have been looking for my father since then, what are you telling me about this?" Then he staggered out of the tent.
