System: I let you have children, not fight for hegemony

Chapter 20 Li Mu, Yanmen County

Without waiting for the Lian family army to be alert, the other party sent someone to report to the family.

"Li Mu who is stationed in Yanmen County?!" Many fish exclaimed, how could he come here?
Lian Po glanced sideways at the fish: "Don't be rude. How can you call General Li by his first name?"

Many fish quickly apologized to the visitor: "It's my fault, I hope General Li won't mind."

After Shiwu returned, he told the matter.

Li Mu has a broad mind and doesn't care about such trivial matters at all. Instead, he is very happy to meet Xinping Jun Lianpo.

Mrs. Lian was very fond of this young man who sat like a bell and moved like the wind, and fought for Zhao against the Huns. She specially prepared a dinner featuring roasted meat as a treat.

Venison, pork, and even beef are cut into small pieces, put on skewers, sprinkled with salt, and grilled over a fire.

The rich burnt aroma made everyone's fingers move.

Served with several kinds of sauces, it has a rich taste.

Many fish are not sensitive to these sauces. Several of them were made by Zhao Zhengming, and they contain ant and insect eggs!
Li Mu's face was flushed, and his whole body was covered with the sweet fragrance of rice wine: "Thank you, General and Madam, for your warm hospitality."

Lian Po was always upright and felt that he was familiar with Li Mu, so he asked: "You are not guarding the border in Yanmen County, why are you here?"

Li Mu shook his head and smiled bitterly: "The king blamed me for not being able to hold on, so he recalled me."

Lian Po felt sad: "The way to use military force is not to be brave for a moment..."

Lian Po swallowed the rest of his words, raised his glass to drink with Li Mu, and said nothing.

Many fish wanted to provoke them, but they thought that on this occasion, if they really dared to do so, the master would definitely reward them with a few whips.

That's all, there's still some time left, and I can pry one by one.

Perhaps because of the similar situation, Li Mu decided to stay in Lian Mansion for a longer time.

Two-thirds of Lianpo's fiefdom was pasture, and the other third was medium-sized farmland.

Li Mu squatted in front of the field, carefully observed the yield in the field, and asked his guard sideways: "Do you think the yield in this field is higher than in other places?"

The guard was born as a farmer, and he could tell the strangeness of this field at a glance: "Reporting to the general, it is indeed higher. And this field is obviously a middle-class field, but the crops are no worse than the upper-class fields."

"Why is this?" Li Mu was confused. Could it be that the Lian family has special planting skills?
Xunzi, who had just finished class, explained: "Because here are all the peasant children from all over the world."

Li Mu stood up and saluted: "Li Mu, thank you very much for clarifying my doubts."

"Li Mu from Yanmen County? I am Xun Kuang."

Li Mu: "I have admired Xunzi's name for a long time, but I never met him. I didn't expect that Xunzi would end up in General Lian's house."

Xunzi explained generously: "My son's master is here, so I came here to take a look."

"General Lian?"

"No, he is a closed disciple of General Lian."

Li Mu hesitated. General Lian's only closed disciple was the little girl at yesterday's dinner.

Xunzi saw Li Mu's doubts at a glance and affirmed: "It is that little queen."

Li Mu opened his mouth and said: "Kenvjun, you are not more than ten years old, but you are a daughter of a certain clan?"

Xunzi pointed to the hills in the distance and said with admiration: "Those farmers are also under the command of the female monarch. They plant sacred objects for the female monarch."

"These farmlands?"

"Although Xu Xing and others focus mainly on planting sacred objects, they will go down the mountain to provide guidance when they have free time, so these fields are much more productive than before."

While the two were communicating, a group of people came from the end of the village.

Li Mu tightened his grip on the sword at his waist, and the guards behind him quickly formed a formation to guard Xunzi.

"Prisoner, what happened?" Xun Shuang rushed out from behind Li Mu and shouted to the crowd.

A tall man, wearing a patched burlap short brown shirt, turned around and saw that it was the teacher in the school. His serious face softened. "Master, some bandits injured the villagers. Let's take them home."

Seeing that it was a villager, Li Mu slowed down his movements, but still did not relax his vigilance.

However, Xunzi took the initiative to signal the guards to get out of the way: "General Li, it's okay. I'm familiar with these farmers."

Qiu Wu led the villagers closer, and there were traces of blood dripping all the way, and the families of the injured covered their faces and wept.

There were five or six people injured in this wave. Three of them would squat outside the school and endorse books with the students whenever they had free time.

Neither Xun Kuang nor Xun Shuang drove them away, and the two sides tacitly kept their distance.

Xun Shuang saw that the familiar face had turned blue-grey and couldn't help but said: "Go find a doctor."

Qiuwu shook his head and gently placed the injured man on the ground. He saw a big hole in his abdomen and his intestines were flowing all over the floor.

The injury is so serious that it is difficult for gods to treat him.

The wounded man was breathing out but not in, but he was still looking straight in the direction of Xun Shuang and Xun Kuang, his lips moving.

I leaned close to my ear and listened carefully to the last words.

But without saying a few words, the injured person died, leaving only his family members lying on the ground crying.

Qiwu's eyes were red and he choked with sobs: "The fox asked me to express my gratitude to the masters, but it's a pity that I have no chance to see the world in the book."

After saying that, Qiwu kowtowed to Lian Po and many fishes who had just arrived.

"The fox said that he was lucky enough to be born in the Zhao Kingdom, and to be blessed by his lord, so that he could grow up safely, and his kindness will be repaid in the next life."

"The fox said, I am grateful to my queen for her righteousness, and to my husband Xu for his guidance, so that my family can have enough to eat."

Fox, it turns out his name is Fox.

Live a humble life and die an ordinary life.Only this true feeling touched everyone.

Xun Shuang was in a daze. Did his random act of kindness actually stick in his mind?
Xu Xing, who came after hearing the news, sighed piteously: "He is the most studious and diligent farmer. The farmland he works on has the highest yield in the village. I planned to accept him as my apprentice after the harvest... "

"My son, my poor son!" The old woman cried heartbrokenly and rolled on the ground, but she did not dare to ask the nobles for revenge.

The bandits only dared to rob ordinary civilians and farmers. When they saw the noble's convoy, they stayed away.

Therefore, as long as the bandits do not get into their hands, the nobles will turn a blind eye.

Many fish's faces were burning with pain, and the old woman's cries were like slaps, slapping the recent complacency of many fish to pieces.

Lian Po gave some money to the injured, and the matter passed.

Many fish are sitting on the promenade, the moonlight above their heads is bright and flawless, and they seem not to be moved by the joys and sorrows of the world.

"Azheng, tell me, did I do something wrong?"

Zhao Zheng sat next to him and looked up at the moon together: "What's wrong?"

"I originally wanted to plead for the people of the world. But I gathered the Nongmo family, forced Xun Shuang to stay, bribed the envoys, and wanted to stir up trouble. My eyes looked far away and high, but never looked at the land below my feet. land."

Azheng's eyes reflected many fishes under the moon: "So what if you see them? So what if you can't see them?"

"Without the farmers, how can you prevent people in the world from going hungry? Without the Mohists, how can you ensure your own safety?"

Zhao Zheng stood up and looked in the direction of Qin: "Without power, no matter how much ambition you have, it will be empty talk! Xunzi was rich in five cars, but his official career was bleak. Li Mu was rich in military virtue, but he could only return to Handan. General Lian, Duke Lin …”

Zhao Zheng walked down the corridor, held the hands of many fishes, looked directly at them, and spoke every word, as if he wanted to carve his words into the hearts of many fishes.

"With many fishes, only power, overwhelming power, can make us get what we want."

"Azheng, what do you want?" Many fish saw their little selves in Zhao Zheng's dark eyes.

Zhao Zheng touched the heads of many fish: "I want a lot."
