Chapter 626： Rehash

Chapter 626 Repeating the old tune

Afterwards, Gu Yu served a few more dishes.

Yang Lan'er has been sitting silently by the side, finishing the meal with them without any appetite.

After Lichun and the others removed the table, they replaced the three with teacups.

Qi Xiang took a sip of tea, as if she was still reminiscing about the taste just now, so she said, "I haven't tasted this tofu for several years. After I tasted it at your house a few days ago, I have been relishing it for the past few days, so It’s raining today and nothing happened, so I couldn’t help but ran over, I’m sorry for disturbing you.”

Tan Anjun was surprised by this man, but he also knew what politeness is? The corners of his mouth twitched a few times, and he said generously, "It's okay."

The hall was silent for a while, Qi Xiang raised his eyelids and looked at Tan Anjun who was drinking tea with his head down, and spat in his heart, never seen such a stingy man, just the word "no problem"? Why don't you add a word, welcome to come again next time?

However, he doesn't care whether the master agrees or not, whether the master welcomes it or not. Anyway, when he gets hungry, he will come whenever he wants.

Regardless of his mother Xipi's east-west wind, no matter which way it blows, it can't stop him from moving forward!

Several people were chatting casually when the rain outside started to increase again.

Qi Xiang glanced outside the door, put down the teacup, and said in a heavy tone: "This year, there seems to be a little more rain, and many areas in the south have been flooded."

"Yes." Tan Anjun responded in a rare agreeable tone: "Yes, this winter's military pay and rations have become a big problem again. It seems that we have to make preparations early again."

Yang Lan'er saw that they were talking about the military, so she signaled Lichun to take everyone back.

The current emperor of Daying Kingdom has been trying his best to strengthen the country since he ascended the throne for more than ten years.

However, things are counterproductive.

The barbarians in the north frequently knocked on the border, the pirates along the coast kept harassing, and the tribes in the south kept making small moves. Years of wars have emptied the treasury and weakened the national power.

Drought year after year in the country, followed by floods and floods one after another, have caused the people to live in dire straits. The treasury revenue has been in deficit for several years, and it cannot make ends meet.

Qi Xiang knocked on the table, glanced at Yang Lan'er, curled her lips and said, "It's the same old tune."

Since he joined the army, which year has he not had a headache for military pay?

"But these are real problems that need to be solved." Tan Anjun said helplessly.

"Those old people are stubborn. They don't know how to march and fight. Every year, they want us to defend and defend. According to my opinion, since the imperial court finds various excuses to default on the payment of the army every year, and asks us to guard the border, they want the horses to run and don't want to. Feed the horses! The abacus is well calculated."

"Since this is the case, why don't we take the initiative to attack, change places with one shot, and **** all the cattle, horses and sheep from the barbarians, so we are afraid that there will be no food in winter?"

Yang Lan'er's eyelids twitched after hearing Qi Xiang's remarks.

Tan Anjun actually agreed with Qi Xiang's proposal, but the old General Qin has been unable to take this step, and he has his own persistence in his heart.

After Qi Xiang finished speaking, he looked at the reaction of their husband and wife, turned his head suddenly, and smiled at Yang Lan'er: "Boss, what do you think of my proposal?"

"Ah...?" Yang Lan'er was so startled by his boss that she almost sat down on the ground.

Qi Xiang pursed her lips and let out a deep laugh.

Yang Lan'er tried her best to keep her face unchanged, and said: "Very good! There is no reason to talk to the barbarians. Only when they are afraid of them will they not be presumptuous."

"A few years ago, the barbarian leaders fell in love with the emperor's favorite eldest princess, and asked her to marry and get married. Those ministers in the court who boasted that they were talented, well-educated, and full of economics and ability to govern the country felt this without even thinking about it. It is the most appropriate way. Can it ease the conflict between the two countries, establish diplomatic relations between the two countries, and then the two countries can coexist peacefully?"

When Qi Xiang said this, he couldn't help but sneered: "What's the result?"
