Chapter 131

Mei Shijie talked eloquently: "The general thinks that we can go up the mountain from here. This is the hinterland of the mountain stronghold. The terrain is a bit steep. As long as the lookout posts can be killed, the officers and soldiers can march straight in!"

He glanced at Xia Chixiao and said: "There are many lookout posts in the village, but the general is very skilled in archery. There must be archers in the army, so it is not impossible to get rid of them!"

He pointed to a few more places and said: "The officers and soldiers can attack from these two wings at the same time, catching the bandits by surprise!"

He sighed: "It's just that the number of officers and soldiers is too small. Although we are a surprise attack, we don't have an advantage in numbers. If there is a fight, the outcome will be unpredictable!"

Xia Chixiao glanced at him and was a little surprised. The garrison troops all had that ghost character. He thought Mei Shijie was also dawdling around. Unexpectedly, he actually knew something about Anping Village. Moreover, although their views were not The best, but also the best.

He said casually: "Mei Shouwei was a martial arts scholar during the Chengwu period? I heard he was still No. 7 in the second class?"

"Ashamed, ashamed, I didn't expect General Xia to know about the last general!"

Xia Chixiao smiled and said: "Mei is stationed in the garrison. He is a bit unworthy of his talents!"

Mei Shijie raised his eyes. The young man in front of him had firm and handsome features, as if he was just chatting casually about home affairs.He thought about it in his mind, but couldn't figure out what this sentence meant.

Are you really feeling aggrieved for him, or are you being sarcastic?
A thousand empty wages weighed on his shoulders like a huge mountain. It was a crime worthy of beheading.

He suddenly asked: "General Xia, are you sure of winning this round of bandit suppression?"

Xia Chixiao glanced at him in surprise and then said: "Mei Shouwei, how can there be any sure-win battle in this world? How can there be a general who always wins?"

Some of them just know themselves and their enemies, integrate proficient military skills and continuously conduct deductions, taking into account all the good and bad consequences, and then formulate corresponding countermeasures one by one.

His battle plan took a long time, not because he was slow. On the contrary, he had made more than a dozen kinds in more than a day. Not only did he have to choose the best and best, he also had to consider every loophole or any weakness. at.

Mei Shijie laughed and said, "That's what General Xia said!"

So he is actually not sure of winning, so what Xia Xinhe said, that he might be Xia Chixiao's retreat after his failure, is probably true!

There was a hint of cruelty deep in his eyes.

Instead of waiting for others to decide his fate, he should decide the fate of others!

Anyuanhou Mansion.

After chatting with the old lady for a while, Chu Nanning felt that the old lady was a little tired. Chu Nanning helped her flatten her sleeves and touched her wrist veins without leaving any trace.

Then, she narrowed her eyes slightly and said with a smile: "Grandma, please rest first. I will come see you tomorrow!"

"I don't like the morning and evening routine here. If you have something to do, just do your own thing. You don't have to come every day!"

Chu Nanning smiled and said: "Grandma, I live in the Hou Mansion now, so it's convenient to come here!"

After she left, Aunt Yu said with a smile: "The old lady smiled a lot more when she saw the eldest lady! It would be great if the eldest lady could come here more often!"

The old lady said slowly: "That child has her own affairs to be busy with. She is independent, and the Marquis can't count on her, so she must be more tired than others. I am an old man, so I can't hold her back. !”

She rubbed her temples and sighed: "Hey, my energy is getting worse and worse these days. I'm going to take a nap!"

Aunt Yu helped her into the inner room to rest.

After coming out, she and Aunt Qin looked at each other, with real worry in their eyes, "The old lady's health has become worse and worse in the past two months!" "Last time, even Dr. Zhou checked her pulse and said it was due to her age. It’s a common problem among older people. The old lady lost her child in her early years and was depressed. She was able to hold on when she was young, but now that she’s older, those early depressions slowly appear and erode her body and bones!”

"Fortunately, I have the nursing prescription prescribed by Imperial Physician Zhou. I will ask Imperial Physician Zhou tomorrow if the old lady needs to change the nursing decoction!"

"I'll let Chang Ning ask!"

……

The two of them talked and went about their business.

Here, Chu Nanning turned a corner and went directly to Zhao Yuan's yard.

Since Zhao Yuan became the wife of Marquis Anyuan, Chu Baikui had almost never said harsh words to her. Even though he had many concubines, she was still his favorite.But this time he not only scolded her, but also banned her feet.Especially, in front of so many people, what the Marquis did to her, and Mrs. Shi's words, how many people looked at her with disdain?

She was angry and bitter, and heard the maid coming to report: "Madam, the eldest lady is here!"

Zhao Yuan didn't react for a moment, thinking it was Chu Yunzhao, and subconsciously said: "Isn't she grounded by the Marquis? Does she need to be notified when she comes?"

Can't go out of the yard.

If the Marquis finds out about coming to her place, the Marquis will be even more angry and the grounding time will be longer.

But she also thought that all the servants in the Anyuan Hou Mansion were hers, and no one dared to tell the truth.

The maid hesitated and said: "It's the eldest lady!"

Zhao Yuan was startled for a moment, and finally heard it. Her face darkened: "What is she doing here? Missing!"

"Don't see me? That's your fault. I came to see you with good intentions, but you didn't see me! So in fact, the Marquis Mansion said they welcomed me, but they just deceived me, right?" A voice laughed leisurely.

Listening to this voice, Zhao Yuan gritted her teeth and felt a little worried at the same time.

Although Yun'er was disobedient and made a move on Chu Nanning on the day of the banquet, they were all at the table at the time and she was paying attention to everything. Even she didn't notice anything strange. How did Chu Nanning know that there was something wrong with the wine? , and gave the wine to Mr. Hou to drink by the way?
If the wine was not directed at Chu Nanning but at her, she would have been hit, but Chu Nanning escaped unscathed!
She forced a smile and said: "You have returned to the Hou Mansion now, and you are a member of the Hou Mansion. Everyone already knows, do you still want to move out now?"

"How could it be?" Chu Nanning said with a smile: "You have put so much effort into welcoming me into the Marquis' Mansion, and if I just leave like this, aren't you wasting all your efforts in vain?"

"I'm not feeling well. If you're fine, just go and do your work. I don't need to make morning and dusk adjustments here!"

"I know. Do you think I'm coming here at this time to relax in the morning and dusk?"

Zhao Yuan choked.

Now that she saw Chu Nanning, her whole body was in a bad state, and she couldn't think of dealing with her.Especially when she saw Chu Nanning smiling, she felt choked up.

She and Yun'er were both grounded, and the middle feeder was temporarily occupied by the Guo family. Could this stinky girl be here to show off her power?

She lowered her face: "After all, I am also your stepmother. What do you want to say? Just say it clearly!"

Chu Nanning said: "Well, then I will make it clear. Didn't you say you would buy me clothes in front of so many distinguished guests yesterday? I said you would convert them into silver and you agreed, 730 taels, I'll give you the whole , 700 taels. When will you give it to me?"
