830 Negotiations break down

"If you're too long, there's a very short way for me to forgive you, ten minutes at most."

Ling Shuang asked, "What way?" ”

"There is no one around, help your husband do a job...... Yes! ”

Ling Shuang pinched his waist heavily, and the two fell silent again.

"How did you survive?"

"I don't remember, I was fished out of the river and was about to die, probably because of my husband's tenacious vitality."

Ling Shuang said quietly: "If you think about it, you will definitely hate me to the bone." ”

"When I think about it, I just know that I am very happy with you now, and I don't want to think about anything, what future, what ideals, what national hatred, what people's well-being, all fucking bullshit, I just want to live every minute and every second happily with you at this moment......"

The corners of Ling Shuang's mouth rose slightly, and she said lightly: "I don't understand the love words of your hometown at all. ”

"Then let's do a bit of oral work, it's easier to understand, by the way, you did a pretty good job seducing me that night, where did you learn that?"

He really asked many times, as the Oiran Peony Fairy of Baihualou, since she was a child in that kind of fireworks land, she had never eaten pork and seen pigs run, and she had a mobile phone in her hand that hid his intimate video with Zhang's family, wouldn't it be strange for her.

This time, Ling Shuang didn't pinch him again, and was silent for a while before asking softly, "Is it so interesting to do that kind of thing?" ”

"It depends on who does it for me, if the famous Miss Li Jiasan helps me do it, I will hold it in my mouth. The flexible little tongue is so rolled, full of affection, and looks at me beautifully and ......movingly. ”

Ling Shuang leaned quietly on his shoulder. After a long time, he said: "Then you surrender, I will help you do it every day, you can do it as many times as you want." ”

Zhen Mingbitter fell silent.

A hint of sadness flashed in Ling Shuang's eyes, "Zhen is bitter, in order to avenge your wife, can you not hesitate to let hundreds of thousands of lives be wasted in a senseless war?" ”

Zhen Ming sighed bitterly: "Long pain is better than short pain, since war is inevitable." I'll try to make it end in the shortest possible time, and the longer it drags on, the longer the pain will be for both parties. If I had to end up with the destruction of one side, it would definitely not be me. ”

"Is that what you want me to do?"

"You chose to stand against me, not that I want to oppose you, and I didn't provoke the war."

"But he's my stepfather!"

Zhen Mingku shouted with a little annoyance: "I am your husband! ”

Ling Shuang was stunned. Keep your head down. "I'm not married to you."

"It's just a formality, is there a difference? In my heart, you are my veritable wife, as the saying goes, marry a chicken with a chicken and marry a dog with a dog, marry a daughter with the water spilled out, the husband's family is the first object of allegiance, why haven't you learned the advantages of women in this era? ”

"If I marry you, I will have to fight against my father-in-law who has the grace of nurturing, and I would rather not know you."

Zhen Ming's bitter face froze. Ling Shuang also lifted his head off his shoulder, and the bodies the two were leaning on slowly separated. Keep your distance.

After being silent for a long time, Zhen Ming sighed bitterly and asked, "Then why didn't you persuade your father-in-law to surrender to me?" This is also for the well-being of the people of the world......"

Then he smiled bitterly: "But even if he surrenders, I can't let him go, unless he resurrects my dead wife and returns it to me intact, even if he can return my goose and goose to me, do you think with his character and virtue, he can be a good emperor who can bring happiness to the people of the world?" ”

Ling Shuang's eyes flashed with a hint of anger that was offended by his faith, and he glanced back at him, there was no tenderness in his eyes as before, replaced by the coldness of his heart to rebuild the high wall, "You overestimate yourself too much, you will suffer an unprecedented fiasco." ”

"Then there is no way, the negotiations broke down, I thought I could put you on my side, it seems that I overestimated my charm."

The two were silent again.

……

The sky lit up with a white belly, and the two sat like this all night, without sweet love words, and without the oral work that Zhen Ming had repeatedly proposed.

"You go, don't let me catch it anymore, I won't show mercy to my subordinates anymore."

Ling Shuang stood up with Qin in her arms, stopped looking at him, and walked into the distance.

Zhen Mingku looked back at her lonely figure who did not hesitate to go away, a trace of guilt welled up in her heart, and from beginning to end, she was showing him that as long as he surrendered, she would meet all his proposals.

If it weren't for the fact that the hatred of killing his wife was difficult to resolve, he might have really obeyed her wishes, surrendered to Li Tang, and let the world be unified.

It's just that she doesn't know that he is not alone now, he has carried too much, the hatred of the Zhang family, the hatred of Fulin, the hatred of Yang Dong, and the future of many brothers in the Dark Guard...... After today's separation, I am afraid that she will really become an enemy, and she will no longer have the shackles of children's personal affection for him, and go all out to realize the ideal in her heart.

She was so strong, so stubborn, and yet so lonely and helpless.

An impulse surged in his heart, not wanting her to be hurt in any way, and shouted loudly at her back: "Next time, don't accept Li Yuan's assignment and lead the army to attack Jianghuai, because when the time comes, I will no longer take a defensive position, and I will use the latest developed weapons to capture Luoyang and Chang'an at the cost of casualties, and you must not underestimate my determination." ”

Ling Shuang shuddered.

Only she clearly knows the details of Zhen Mingku, this man from more than a thousand years later, has more than a thousand years of scientific and technological knowledge beyond this era, if he makes up his mind to use the weapons of their era to win the war, the people of this era have no chance of winning.

Her hand grasped the hilt of the sword at her waist gently, and she was sure that if she had been ruthless, she would be able to kill him here, for he would never be willing to hurt her, and she had known this since she had met him again, and that she was going to kill him, and he had no ability to resist.

It's just that he is not her Achilles' heel.

He stood quietly for a while, no longer staying, and walked away quickly.

……

The Tang army marched out, crossed the Yellow River, and went to support the Tang army in the east of the river against the Han army.

Zhen Ming stood on a hill on horseback, looking at Li Tang's army crossing the river in the distance, a trace of concern flashed in his eyes, and he silently recited a sentence in his heart, "Take care of Shuang'er", turned the horse's head, and hurried away into the distance.

There is still a wife and children at home waiting for him to go back, he has worked hard, he has played enough, he is tired, he wants to go home.

On the fifth day, he rushed back to Hefei City, stayed in an inn in Hefei City, and waited for Pei Xingyan to send back the carrier pigeon from the front.

After settling down, he sent people to Jiangdu City to report the safety of his eldest grandson Belle, and listened to the merchants in the teahouse downstairs of the inn talking about strange things from all over the world.

It is very interesting to listen to the braggadocio of these merchants, and occasionally to get some useful information.

One of the tables in the teahouse, the accent sounded like it was from Shanxi and Hebei, and it had just arrived in Hefei City not long ago, and more than a dozen people looked like they had fled to Hefei City.

"Aren't you going to Chang'an? Why did you come to Hefei? ”

"I heard that the current Chang'an City is reckless, exacting taxes and miscellaneous taxes, fighting everywhere, and the people are living hard, I want to go over, isn't it sending sheep into the tiger's mouth?"

"But isn't it, although Li Tangjun said that the momentum is huge, but it is all the blood and sweat of the common people, which is like the Jianghuai army, I heard that they all voluntarily joined the army, the king of Jianghuai has never forcibly enlisted in the army, and now the Handong army is fighting with the Tang army by the river, and the common people have fled south, saying that the king of Jianghuai loves the people like a son, and the refugees fled to Jianghuai, and the king of Jianghuai only welcomes, never drives away, and arranges household registration, distributes land, and fools do not come to Jianghuai......"

Zhen Ming listened bitterly, and his face rarely showed a little joy, although it was only a short year, the Jianghuai area has increased dramatically and prospered day by day under the management of Du Keming and Bao Xinglong. A large number of refugees poured into the country, maybe these people are an unstable factor and a scourge for some local emperors, but he knows that the instability is because they have not given them stable conditions.

Of course, there are also few ruffians who are born to be idle and want to get something for nothing, this is the product of failed education since childhood, but he doesn't think this is a big problem, just need the law is complete, law enforcement is strict, and the masses are supervised, all of this can be solved well, only in places where there is no legal guarantee, these ruffians can run rampant, on the territory of the Dark Guard, these people have only one end for doing evil, and they are arrested to repair the city wall.

In this way, the people will live and work in peace and contentment, the economy will naturally prosper, and the influx of refugees from various localities will be beneficial but not harmful to the special zones in Jianghuai that are in urgent need of labor to develop their economies.

In this Hefei City, in just one year, the registered population has skyrocketed from more than 100,000 to more than 600,000, and Jiangdu City has a population of more than one million.

All he did was to hold the military power in his hands, ensure the effective implementation of new culture and new values, and ensure the fair and effective implementation of the law.

Du Ruhui, Zhen Dengshan, Yan Liben brothers, Huan'er Xing'er, Li Daliang, Pei Xingyan and others, each doing their own thing, he didn't dare to guarantee that they would not be corrupted because of the power in their hands, but he could guarantee that if they were corrupted, he would know from the people around him, because he used the army to ensure the absolute freedom of speech of the people of Jianghuai, anyone has the right to slander, anyone also has the right to refute the attack, and the slanderer is confirmed to spread rumors, and the price paid will be extremely painful.

They are allowed to set up newspapers and magazines, to ensure that no power is deprived of their rights in disguise, and that under the condition of ensuring the smooth flow and openness of information, the truth will become clearer and clearer, and the rumors will only be punctured in an instant, instead of looking at flowers in the fog and becoming more confused.

This is a mechanism of mutual restraint to ensure the benign operation of the administration of Jianghuai.

As the king of Jianghuai, all he has to do is this, and the rest does not need him to interfere too much. (To be continued......)
