The devil is coming

Chapter 769: Happy return home!
The Chu people withdrew their stronghold,
Laugh every day,
Lord Zheng also laughed.
Of course, the evacuation of one water village cannot change the overall defense of the Chu people south of the Wei River, and Lord Zheng has no intention of crossing the river now to take advantage of the situation;
Just smile and have fun, that's it, it's worth it.
This is life. In the eyes of ordinary people, the golden horse and the iron horse, which are as fearful as tigers, are also part of life in the eyes of Lord Zheng.
Lord Zheng said about the metal skills around him:
"Golden magic is possible."
"The end is here."
"Now, the Chu people are scared to retreat when they see the Jingnan King's flag. Later, I hope they will be scared to retreat when they see your 'gold' flag."
Zheng Fan deliberately did not talk about himself, but in fact, the essence is the same.
"The general will work hard to the death and live up to the Marquis's expectations for the general!"
Lord Zheng nodded and said, "Let's go home."
However, at this moment, a raft came over from the Chu people.
Lord Zheng saw this and motioned to Pixiu to wait a little longer.
Not long after, Chu people's messengers brought a message.
He said that General Nian Yao was going to hold a banquet on the shore and wanted to meet King Jingnan.
Everyone knows that the generals of the Chu State took King Yannan as their role model. In Zheng Fan's view, Nian Yao was actually a fan of Lao Tian.
It's just that this is a banquet and drinking, haha.
"Jin Shuke, King Jingnan is not here, so guess, is Nian Yao, the other side, here?"
"Master Marquis, the war between Chu State and Qian State has ended long ago. It would not be surprising if Yao transferred his defenses and returned here that year."
"Ah."
Marquis Zheng shook his head. If Nian Yao was in charge of defense on the other side, he would have to reconsider whether he should attack Chu as planned after the beginning of spring.
When Lao Tian was here, he once said that among the famous generals in the world, this young general who was born as a slave is indispensable.
In the Battle of Yanchu, Chu lost, but General Nian always retained his dignity.
It was precisely because of General Nian's early grinding and attrition that Yan lost the opportunity to expand its results. King Jingnan's burning of Yingdu and Marquis Pingxi's excavation of noble ancestral graves were essentially catharsis before leaving.
"General Liang will come over again in a while."
"I will understand at the end."
Let Liang Cheng come and take a look first. Lord Zheng is confident in himself, but there is no need to leave such an outstanding senior ginseng unused.
But in Jin Shuke's view, he was a confidant valued by Marquis Pingxi. The number one military confidant must be Liang Cheng. Liang Cheng should be the one who inherited the mantle of Marquis Pingxi.
Marquis Zheng did not reply to the "young general" on the other side, and went straight back to Zhennanguan. He visited Zhennanguan and nearby households, and gave several speeches to the soldiers. Afterwards, The rice, flour, grains and oils that had been prepared for shipment that year were used as items brought by Lord Zheng as rewards to the soldiers and civilians this time.
These political shows were delayed for a few days, and they just waited until the Juggernaut returned, and then they rushed to Fengxin City's home with the Juggernaut.
……
"The sword maker of the Dugu family is really easy to talk to." Mr. Zheng said.
"It's just a sword." The sword master said.
Telling the truth is just a sword;
It’s not that without Long Yuan, the Sword Master is no longer the Sword Master. Even with the Sword Master, wouldn’t the Jin Kingdom also die?
Where there is no need to be stingy, the sword maker still has the demeanor of a great Chu aristocrat.
"I've met Nian Yao," the sword master said.
"Is it really Nian Yao?"
"I don't know. He calls himself Nian Yao."
"Oh."
"What do you mean?"
"I don't know," Zheng Fan said. "Maybe the Chu people have a premonition. The guards in Phoenix Nest are not just for a living."
The troops and horses have not moved, and the food and grass have gone first. With some recent transfers in Fengxin City, it is impossible for the Chu court to miss the news.
However, I just don’t know if a trip to the snowfield will dispel their doubts.
Lord Zheng smiled and said;
"But it doesn't matter. The Chu people must be on guard against our Yan army going south. We, Dayan, have always wanted to go south. We both know this very well."
"The people in the Chu land south of Shanggu County have resumed their lives," the sword master said.
"Can't bear to leave?" Lord Zheng asked.
"Not really."
"When you return to Fengxin City, ask your son, and then the normal neighbors, if they want to fight, they will tell you that they do.
There is only war,
Those who are not standard households can become standard households and eat the iron crops of Pingxihou Mansion;
And those who are already standard households also want to get more rewards and live a better life through fighting.
Lao Yu,
Be more open,
Do you think the people will be satisfied if they can't freeze to death or starve?
no, I can not.
This is what they think about when they don't have enough to eat or clothes to keep warm. But when they live this kind of life, people will never be satisfied.
They will want to eat more delicately and dress more comfortably.
When you want your daughter to get married, you can buy a richer dowry. When you want your son to get married, you can choose more stylish furniture.
After my son and daughter are settled, I still think about the shadow of my grandchildren.
Those who are not content will never be content.
I don't want a war. You know, I've always been lazy. But now, they want a war. What can you do? "
"You can do whatever you want, but there is one thing I have always been curious about. What you just said, I actually experienced it before when I was in Fengxin City.
But why is this so? "
A year of peaceful life,
The emperor passed away and a new emperor ascended the throne. This can only be a toothpaste ceremony, and it is too far away from the people of Fengxin City.
As for those direct soldiers and civilians who were first in Shengle City and then went to Xuehaiguan, they had long been accustomed to sharing the fruits of the Hou Mansion's victory in foreign wars.
The war suddenly stopped, but they were not used to it.
"What people are afraid of is not fighting, but losing the war."
"I think your words are a bit absolute."
"I think so."
There was nothing to delay on the way, and the horse was racing all the way. The sword master didn't want to go to Xiulongyuan, but he couldn't resist Zheng Fan's request and took a trip.
So, wait for the group of people to return to Fengxin City.
Years have passed;
The sword master's son's hundred days have also passed.
This is life, nothing can be perfect.
After entering the city, the sword master returned home.
Marquis Zheng also returned to his mansion. This time, it was not hard to go out. The main thing was to take the baby to see the world.
Black cats and foxes came out to greet their little masters, squatting down and petting them affectionately every day.
Lord Zheng also took out the magic pill and handed it to Tiantian.
A Ming habitually turned left after entering the house and returned to the wine cellar where he was accustomed to stay. He was not in the Hou Mansion, let alone building a house outside the Hou Mansion. The wine cellar of the Hou Mansion was his home.
Anyway, Marquis Zheng and the other demon kings are not good drinkers either.
Lord Zheng ordered his servants to put in the bath water. In his previous life, his home was his workplace. Perhaps the happiest thing in this life is that he can be completely "isolated" from the world when he returns home.
There are also two stone lions placed at the gate of the Pingxi Marquis Mansion, which are exactly the same style as those in front of the old Jingnan Marquis Mansion in Litian City. The meaning is self-explanatory.
After taking a dip in the hot spring, I felt relaxed.
Lord Zheng couldn't help but make a "sound of ecstasy",
Then he put the towel under his neck, closed his eyes, and took a nap.
After waking up, I looked at my side. It was inevitable that there was no maid. When Mr. Zheng was taking a bath, it was impossible for a maid to come in and serve him. Even the eldest grandmother in the mansion, the Hakka family, took advantage of the fact that the ladies were not around last time. Dare to come in and wait for the Marquis to go to bed.
But the problem is,
None of the three wives came over to see the man who returned home?
Marquis Zheng felt that his status in the family was not that low.
After wiping himself and putting on his clothes, Mr. Zheng walked out of the house and stretched out.
At this time, a maid who had been waiting for a long time came over and reported:
"Master Marquis, Madam asked you to go to the side courtyard."
Madam refers to Si Niang. There is no need to add a big character in front of Madam. The side courtyard in the mansion refers to the small house where the princess lives, because Si Niang’s courtyard is the main house of Lord Zheng.
"got it."
After taking a bath and taking a nap, Mr. Zheng was in high spirits now. When he approached the side yard, he found that the side yard had just been disturbed, and a greenhouse had obviously been installed.
Originally, only the small courtyard where Tiantian was in the Hou Mansion was used as a greenhouse.
As soon as Mr. Zheng walked in, he heard a group of women talking and laughing, plus the crisp sound of "clatter".
"Get rich."
"bump!"
In the small pavilion in the yard,
Four women were sitting at a table, rubbing hemp.
Si Niang sat in the main seat, with the princess and Liu Ruqing beside her, and a guest who accompanied her.
Among the four women, Mr. Hakka was a little more plainly dressed, but her figure was plump and moist, while the other three ladies were full of flowers.
As I walked in, I listened to the sound of rubbing.
Marquis Zheng suddenly felt like a warlord from the Republic of China walking into his backyard and saw a group of concubines sitting together playing mahjong.
Well,
It seems that they are really close. I am now a warlord.
"Master Hou."
Mr. Ke left the table first and saluted Zheng Fan.
Liu Ruqing then left the table and saluted.
Siniang reached out and held down Xiong Liqing who was about to leave the table.
"Hey, Lord, have you had enough sleep?"
"Haha." Lord Zheng smiled, "You've had enough sleep. You guys are in a good mood today."
Marquis Zheng really didn't notice the change in the tone of Siniang's words. In fact, he had tried various role-playings when he was doing needlework before, so naturally he was not so sensitive.
Furthermore, he and Siniang looked like master and servant, but in fact they were husband and wife, and they were friends. Whatever tone Siniang used to talk to him, Mr. Zheng thought it was normal.
Walking into the pavilion, Zheng Fan looked at Siniang first, but Siniang smiled and pursed her lips to the left.
"My lord, see if there are any changes in Miss Liqing?"
Lord Zheng looked at Xiong Liqing and said:
"Fat."
"..." Xiong Liqing.
immediately,
The smile on Mr. Zheng's face stopped.
Because as the gaze moves downward,
He saw the princess' slightly bulging belly.
hiss……
