Chapter 921 Chapter 921, Pregnancy
The death of Shen Jingbing stunned Hong Zhong, the commander of Xintunwei, and he did not dare to deliberately block the construction of the military town. When Xiao Yeyang patrolled over, the three military towns had already begun to take shape.
Hong Zhong is better at being a human being than Shen Jingbing, but all the problems of the frontier army will all listen to Xiao Yeyang, and he will never confront Xiao Yeyang on the bright side.
Xiao Yeyang saw him know, and didn't embarrass him.
Looking at the city wall a little bit quickly, Hong Zhong whispered to the staff around him, “I don’t know where Xiao Yeyang got the building materials from. I asked them to try them. It is much stronger than ordinary rammed soil.”
The staff nodded: "It rained a few days ago, and the humble servant also paid attention to it. The road built with cement is not muddy at all. If Xiliang’s official roads are built like this, it will not only increase the speed of the march, but also It is convenient for the people to pass."
I think of every time it rains, the road will become muddy, not only difficult to walk, but also a lot of waste shoes.
Hong Zhong sighed, even if his heart was toward Master Wei, he had to admit that the arrival of Xiao Yeyang had improved many of Xiliang's problems.
For the control of the frontier army, Xiao Yeyang put a lot of effort into it. In order to explore the power and loyalty behind the frontier generals, most of the Jin Lingwei and hidden guards in his hand were used here.
The generals of Jianzhouwei, under the leadership of Shen Jingbing, were fond of leisure and work, embezzlement and enjoyment. The soldiers led by him had no military discipline and military capacity to speak of. Xiao Yeyang's great strength was abolished before this bad ethos was changed.
The situation in Xintunwei is better, but it's just a little better.
Looking at the thin and weak soldiers, Xiao Yeyang asked Defu to find Hong Zhong.
"Master Xiao, what can you do with me?"
Xiao Yeyang looked at Hong Zhong with a respectful look: "You are smarter than Shen Jingbing!"
Hong Zhong was a little inexplicable by this sudden compliment.
Xiao Yeyang looked at the army ration receiving record and continued slowly: "Even if you take refuge in others, your life is yours. If you lose your life for others, this kind of person will die."
Hong Zhong's heart tightened, Xiao Yeyang was beating himself?
"Master Xiao, what do you want to tell me?"
Just begging to stop scaring him with such specious remarks.
Seeing the fear in Hong Zhong’s eyes, Xiao Yeyang frowned and shook his head. Such a person actually manages a guard post. If the Xiliao people really come in, can he lead the soldiers to defend against the enemy?
"I looked at the food records given to the frontier troops by Xintunwei in the past few years. You don't have enough in a year!"
Hong Zhong opened his mouth and wanted to say that the harvest of Xintunwei was not good, but Xiao Yeyang didn't give him this opportunity.
"Don’t tell me that the harvest is not good. Xintunwei’s geographical environment is much better than that of Ganzhouwei and Jinweiwei. There are grasslands and plains. The land resources are considered good in Xiliang Jiuwei, so you don’t have enough military rations. Don't be the commander at all."
Hong Zhong is not a person with great abilities. He can sit in the position of commander mainly because he is a little timid after listening to Wei Hongcai's words. Hearing Xiao Yeyang's words, his forehead is sweating with anxiety.
Xin Tunwei's grain harvest is quite a lot, but except for a small part of what he deducted, most of the others have been sent to Wei's house.
Xiao Yeyang looked at Hong Zhong with a cold face: "The autumn harvest is coming soon. If you don't have enough food for the frontier army this year, I will personally give the emperor a discount."
Watching Hong Zhong leave with a dazed expression and pale face, Daohua, who was standing aside as a guard, walked to Xiao Yeyang's side and shook his head: "Such a person is actually a third-rank official. How did the commanders of Xiliang choose people? "
Xiao Yeyang sighed: "Wei Hongcai is nepotism. Although Hong Zhong is incapable, he is even obedient." As he said, he took Daohua and sat down.
"Master Wang contacted a few officials from the Xintun Guard, and I'm going to show up later. If you don't want to take you, you can stay in the tent and don't run around."
Daohua knew that Xiao Yeyang should be going to win over the officials of the Xintun Guard, she was not good to be together: "Well, I know."
Xiao Yeyang: "By the way, I have received a letter from Beijing. Big brother, and the second and third brother-in-law are willing to come to Xiliang. We will return to Ganzhouwei when things are arranged for Xintunwei."
It is not surprising that Yan Wenxiu will come to Daohua. She is a little surprised, Yan Yihuan, and Yan Yishuang’s husband also came: "How do you plan to arrange them?"
Xiao Yeyang was silent for a moment: "Jinweiwei, Jianzhouwei, and Xintunwei border Xiliao. The guards are related to the food supply of the frontier army. These three guards must be under my control."
"Jianzhou Wei has Yuanxuan, second brother-in-law and third brother-in-law, I plan to arrange to go to Jin Weiwei and Lan Wuwei. As for the eldest brother, I want him to stay with Xintunwei."
Daohua hesitated. The commander of the new Tunwei was Wei Hongcai's. The eldest brother stayed here, and she was a little worried about his safety.
Without concealment, Daohua directly thought of the thoughts in her heart and said it out.
Xiao Yeyang also said his own thoughts: “It’s because the Xin Tunwei is not under my control that I want my eldest brother to stay here. There are dangers, but the credit is also great.”
"I will discuss this with my eldest brother. If he is willing to stay, I will leave some guards to protect him."
Daohua nodded: "Then wait for the big brother to come, you can talk to him."
Xiao Yeyang puts the affairs of Xin Tunwei here, time has entered August.
On the day before Mid-Autumn Festival, Xiao Yeyang and Daohua returned to Ganzhou City.
During the Mid-Autumn Festival, Daohua invited the Dong family, Su family, and Li family to Xiao Mansion to enjoy the moon. After sending the people away, she lay on the boat with a tired face.
Xiao Yeyang saw that she was not energetic, and said distressed: "But tired?"
Daohua shook her head: "I don't know what's going on, I've always been very sleepy recently."
Xiao Yeyang blatantly blamed himself: "It must have been tired from running around with me some time ago."
Inahua thinks this is also the reason, and she fell asleep soon after washing.
I thought that after a few days of rest, it would be relieved, but until September, Daohua still looked sad, and she didn't have much energy during the day.
Gu Jian noticed the apprentice’s situation, and pulled Xiao Yeyang aside to scold him.
Xiao Yeyang was a little aggrieved. During this period of time, seeing Daohua lacking energy, he was also distressed. He slept peacefully at night without any trouble.
"Girl, don't just look at us, but also make up for yourself. I see you are thinner."
Seeing Daohua carrying the freshly brewed milk tea, Gu Jian couldn't help but say something.
Daohua was taken aback, and touched her cheek: "I'm thinner?" She has obviously eaten a lot more during this time than before, okay?
Xiao Yeyang listened to his uncle's nonsense, and the corners of his mouth twitched. Where did the rice flower become thinner? Is it obvious that he was fat? When he massaged her at night, he felt a circle of soft flesh on her waist, which felt great. NS.
At this time, Gu Yu walked in: "Girl, Mrs. Dong Shao is here."
When the words fell, Liu Xiaoman walked in, and the maid behind him was carrying two bamboo baskets.
Daohua smiled and greeted each other: "My sister-in-law is here."
Liu Xiaoman smiled and said: "My father has brought me fruit again. Before I saw you like to eat, I wanted to give you some."
Daohua looked at the fruit in the basket, thanked him, and picked up one and smelled it: “This is a green orange, it feels so delicious.” As he said, he peeled the skin and ate it.
Liu Xiaoman saw that the maid brought the sour orange and quickly tried to stop it, but was surprised to find that Daohua was eating Zhengxiang one by one: "Sister, isn't it sour?"
Daohua shook her head: "It's not sour." As he said, he also fed Xiao Yeyang a petal.
After Xiao Yeyang held it in his mouth, his eyes suddenly narrowed with soreness.
Liu Xiaoman saw him, looked at Daohua, and tentatively asked: "Brother and sister, are you pregnant?"
As soon as these words came out, Dao Hua, Xiao Yeyang, and Gu Jian stared at Liu Xiaoman.
