Great Han Arrow God

Chapter 501
"If the best policy is not good, and the bad policy is not good, you should choose." Huan Yuan smiled. "I still have some subordinates in Minyue. If necessary, I will let them go to South Vietnam to meet you."

Liang Xiao couldn't help but laugh. "How many years have your subordinates been free-range, can they still listen to you?"

Huan Yuan was indifferent. "Some people, even if they are by your side every day, will not be loyal to you. Some people, even if they only meet once in this life, he will not change until his death. Loyalty does not depend on the length of time, but on whether the likes are congenial .”

Liang Xiao glanced at Zhong Liqi who was behind Huan Yuan, and said nothing.He himself doesn't really believe that there is such a friendship, but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist.Zhong Liqi's loyalty to Huan Yuan is somewhat inexplicable.Regardless of whether Huan Yuan was a prisoner who had just been released or a general who commanded thousands of troops, he would never leave him.

"Well, actually, I came back to you, first to ask your opinion, and second, to ask you for some tactics in the jungle. I reckon that this mission to South Vietnam is likely to be the opposite of the mission to the Western Regions. If you go there in a good mood and come back disheveled, if you don’t understand jungle warfare, you might die in a ravine somewhere.”

The corner of Huan Yuan's mouth twitched slightly. "That's right, it's your greatest advantage to be prepared."

"It's okay to be careless." Liang Xiao sighed. "No matter how dangerous the jungle is, it is not as dangerous as the court."

"Do you regret it now?" Huan Yuan teased, "If you had listened to me and stayed in Minyue, it wouldn't be such a trouble now."

"That's right, even if the King of Minyue can't be dealt with, it won't be a problem to deal with Liu Ju." Liang Xiao said with a chuckle, "But it's not too late. Master, I still have a chance. But in this way, Liu Ju's good life will not be too late." It's over."

Huan Yuan's expression changed slightly, and then he smiled again. "Well, generally speaking, the current life is better. But..." He immediately put away his smile. "The son of heaven is wise and decisive, and he is better than his father and grandfather. You are not willing to be an obedient minister, so you should be more careful."

Liang Xiao nodded in agreement.

After a short time, the fish soup was brought up.Liang Xiao picked up the pottery bowl, took a shallow sip of the fish soup, his mouth was filled with flavor immediately, he couldn't help gobbling it, he swallowed the bowl of fish soup in a few mouthfuls, and stretched out the bowl again.

"one more bowl."

Huan Yuan held the bowl, glanced at him, and ordered: "Aya, put another bowl for him. Just one bowl, there will be no more."

The Yue girl responded with a smile, and filled Liang Xiao with another bowl of fish soup.Liang Xiao took it over and looked at Yue Nu. "Since when did you call Aya?"

"Master Huan named it." Aya blushed, pursed her lips and said with a smile: "My name is Aya, her name is Aman."

"One is pretty and the other is elegant, but they complement each other. Master, you really know how to name them."

"Man and elegance are originally the two faces of Wu Yun and Chu Feng." Huan Yuan took a sip of the soup, closed his eyes, and showed a pleasant smile at the corners of his eyes. "I just picked it up at my fingertips. It's not surprising. On the contrary, you think too much and are persistent. Just like archery, holding the bow too tightly and trying to hit it will not be beautiful."

Liang Xiao twitched the corner of his mouth.Huan Yuan seemed relaxed, but what he said casually actually meant something.Now that he has a big family and a big business, there are too many things to consider, and it is indeed impossible to be so calm.Huan Yuan said that his three strategies are that the best strategy is not good, and the worst strategy is not good, and he is indeed right.However, it is not easy to let him go now.Not to mention whether he can walk away, even if he can walk away, he is not reconciled.

How can you have a clear conscience if you walk away without a fight.

Liang Xiao returned to the White Deer Abode, found Deng Guobin, and asked him to bring the latest research results.Not long after, Deng Guobin brought a few Huainan diners, several large bundles of silk books, and two ship models.

"After comparison, these two models are more suitable." Deng Guobin held up a ship model like a treasure. "This is the main battleship with the largest volume. After it is completed, it will be a city on the water. According to Junhou's suggestion, sails are added. However, how to use sails on such a large ship has yet to be practiced. Currently in Judging from the experiment of the small boat, it should save a lot of effort..."

As soon as specific technical issues were mentioned, Deng Guobin was eloquent and eloquent.The other guests also had bright eyes, adding from time to time.It can be seen that they are very satisfied with this kind of life.Not all people want to be officials, but the official-based culture makes these people unable to live with dignity, and they can only reluctantly devote themselves to the strife in the officialdom, wasting their talents in vain.

"You re-copy these materials. If there is time, make a few more of these ship models. The tests that have not been completed will not be done for the time being."

"Why?" Deng Guobin was very surprised.

"I may have to leave Yuzhang temporarily." Liang Xiao sighed. "I don't know who will succeed, and I don't know what the successor's style of doing things is. I don't want your hard work to be treated as rubbish."

Deng Guobin understood, nodded, and withdrew.

Liang Xiao walked to the window, looked at the vegetable fields at the foot of the mountain, and smiled helplessly.The vegetable field has just been completed, and before it has time to plant vegetables, it will be transferred again.The emperor's mood is more changeable than the clouds on Peng Lize, and he doesn't know which cloud will rain.

"What's the matter, can't bear it?" Guan Fu came in, poked his head over, looked out following Liang Xiao's gaze, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I'm the prefect of Yuzhang, no one dares to touch your vegetable field. When you come back, maybe there will be a new dish."

"I'm afraid I won't have a chance to eat new dishes." Liang Xiao turned around. "Why are you here? Urge me to go on the road?"

"How dare I." Guan Fu wiped his beard and squeezed his eyes. "There is an edict coming."

Liang Xiao looked behind Guan Fu in surprise.Han said that he was standing with his sword stroked, his face was thin, but his spirit was not bad.Seeing Liang Xiao looking at him, he bowed slightly shyly. "Liang Junhou."

"Why are you back?" Liang Xiao frowned. "You are the emissary of the edict?"

"Yes, Your Majesty took pity on me and appointed me as a man. This time, I was ordered to go to South Vietnam with the prince."

Liang Xiao smiled wryly.The brothers of the Han family really had sex with Lao Tzu, just after killing Han Yan, Han said that he came back again.Over Han Shuo's shoulder, Liang Xiao saw a few familiar faces, among them Qin Ge.Liang Xiao couldn't help raising his brows slightly.These Lang officials are not Weiyang Lang, but the guards next to the emperor. The folks call them Qi Menlang.Soon after, they had a more prestigious name: Huben Lang.

Liang Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly, and involuntarily twisted his mouth.He didn't say anything and accepted the edict.The imperial edict was quite polite. The emperor explained the consideration of sending him as an envoy to South Vietnam, asked him to pay attention to safety, and specifically stated that he would keep his Lushan manor and [-] hectares of vegetable fields as his private property.As for his job of supervising the construction of buildings and ships, the emperor didn't mention it, so he was naturally exempted.

"Your Majesty's kindness to me is as great as a mountain." Liang Xiao put away the imperial edict and sighed in a fake way.

"Yes, Your Majesty has very high expectations for Junhou. I hope Junhou will work hard, and don't let His Majesty's painstaking efforts go down."

"Hahaha..." Liang Xiao laughed and waved. "Let's be happy together. Today I invite you all to eat the special products of Pengli Lake. If you don't get drunk, you won't return."

-

In the dead of night, the moon is hidden in the thick bushes.Liang Xiao, who was half drunk, walked slowly along the mountain road. Qin Ge stood side by side with him, hands behind his back, and said nothing for a long time.

Liang Xiao sighed softly, filled with emotion. "Unexpectedly, after a few years, we will fight side by side again."

Qin Ge smiled and said: "Yes, but now you are the champion of [-] households in Shiyi, but I am still a Lang Guan of [-] shi."

"It's just luck. By the way, the war in Northern Xinjiang is over. Did Zhongqing get promoted again?"

"Behead [-] levels, increase the town by [-] households, for a total of [-] households."

Liang Xiao pondered for a moment, a little surprised. "No promotion?"

"No, it's still a Chinese doctor, plus a servant."

"This is unreasonable." Liang Xiao smiled and said, "Is the emperor not satisfied with this battle?"

"With Pearl and Jade in the Battle of Henan ahead, how can this battle satisfy the Emperor." Qin Ge also laughed. "The casualties are comparable to the battle damage. Zhongqing can still increase the city. It is the emperor's kindness. Oh, yes, Zhongqing will also go out this time. He will go to Kuaiji with Han Gong, and Mrs. Zheng will also go home to visit relatives."

Liang Xiao frowned slightly, but said nothing.Wei Qing was sent to Kuaiji, somewhat unexpected.Judging from the current situation, this is of course no problem. He was sent to South Vietnam, Wei Qing assisted Han Anguo to send troops to Kuaiji, and the two most capable young generals went into battle together. The emperor gave South Vietnam enough face.However, from another perspective, this may not be the emperor's layout for the battle of Liaodong.

Wei Qinghui is the one who actually went to Liaodong?If this is the case, then he really can't find a reason to object, and if he competes with Wei Qing, he will be cast aside.

The Son of Heaven is really well-intentioned.

"How is the palace?"

"There have been many changes in the palace. Wei Zifu gave birth to two daughters one after another, and His Majesty is not very happy. The two Mrs. Chen are both pregnant. According to the imperial physician, at least one of them should be the prince. If it is true, then what is on your Majesty's mind all along?" Forget it. Master Yan entered the palace, His Majesty admired him very much, and within two months, he was promoted. Zhang Tang has made great contributions to handling the Jiangdu case, and now he is a Ting Wei, which is quite favored by His Majesty..."

Qin Ge brought the affairs of the palace one by one, and Liang Xiao listened quietly.The Son of Heaven knew about his relationship with Qin Ge, and arranged for Qin Ge to pass on the news to him.Judging from what is known so far, the emperor seems to have unabated his favor.As for what the emperor was thinking, Qin Ge didn't know, so he could only guess by himself and analyze it based on the existing information.

After chatting with Qin Ge until midnight, Liang Xiao returned to his room. After finishing the night practice, he didn't fall asleep, but wrote a letter of thanks to the emperor.

The next day, he sent twenty knights with Xie Enshu to escort Deng Guobin and others to Chang'an, packed up his luggage, and embarked on a journey to South Vietnam.

The emperor rested his chin and stared at the delicate model ship without blinking his eyes.

Although the two ship models are no more than six feet long and three feet high, each part is made very finely, not like a model at all, giving people a strong sense of reality, as if a warship ready to go, ready to go at any time Set sail and spread the might all over the world.

"Can this ship enter the sea?" the emperor suddenly asked.

"It shouldn't be a problem." The Shang Gong Ling who came here under the imperial edict was also fascinated. Hearing the emperor's question, he quickly said, "However, it depends on the real ship that is built. No matter how exquisite the model is, it is a model after all."

The emperor glanced at him and pushed the blueprint in front of him. "Before Liang Xiao comes back, build a real warship."

Shang Gongling showed embarrassment. "His Majesty……"

"If you think you can't do it, then give up your position and avoid the virtuous." The emperor snorted: "You can't do it well, what else can you do?"

Shang Gongling made a bitter face, but he didn't dare to say any more.He asked someone to pick up the blueprint, and he carefully hugged the ship model, saying goodbye and leaving the hall.

The emperor looked at his back and was lost for a while, then turned his head and looked at Xu Le and Zhu Fuyan. "You are all people near the sea, what do you think of this ship, can it sail into the sea?"

The master father Yan responded: "Your Majesty, going out to sea requires not only a boat, but also the ability to tell the direction. In the sea, the water and the sky are boundless. If you can't tell the direction, you will easily lose your direction and die of hunger and thirst."

The emperor wondered, "Isn't the sea full of water? How could you die of thirst?"

The master's father smiled and said: "Your Majesty doesn't know something. The sea water is so bitter and salty that you can't drink it at all. Drinking it reluctantly is tantamount to drinking poison to quench your thirst."

"really?"

"Your Majesty, it is true." Xu Le echoed: "Not only that, the sea is extremely stormy, and there are giant beasts. Although this ship is big, it may not be safe."

The emperor nodded slightly, and said nothing, but there was an imperceptible sense of relief between his brows, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, showing a little complacency.

The master's father lowered his eyelids, but kept staring at the Son of Heaven. Seeing the smug look on the corner of the Son of Heaven's mouth, he breathed a sigh of relief.Ever since he heard the news of Han Yan's death, he had been worried, fearing that the emperor would blame Liang Xiao for Han Yan's death.Now it seems that the Son of Heaven is quite at ease with Liang Xiao.

-

When Liu Ling entered the door, he stood for a while holding the door frame before stepping into the room.

Alpha rushed over and supported Liu Ling.Liang Yu also stood up, and asked with concern: "A Ling, how are you?"

"It's okay." Liu Ling smiled slightly, and glanced at his stomach. "The reaction has been a bit big in the past two days."

"Oh, this is a good thing." Liang Yu was overjoyed. "Yue Yue also reacted very strongly at the beginning, so she gave birth to a kid. It seems that you are also a kid."

"Mother, how can I know now." Sitting beside Liang Yu, Liu Ling took out a letter and pushed it to Liang Yu's side. "A Xiao sent a letter."

"How is Ah Xiao?" Liang Yan put away her smile, feeling a little more worried. "Did the Son of Heaven blame him for what happened to Han Yan?"

"It doesn't matter, Han Yan is to blame, what has to do with her husband." Liu Ling said lightly: "It's just that he is on an envoy to South Vietnam, and the affairs of Yuzhang will stop. Deng Guobin and others will stay in Chang'an for a while. Mom, I plan to go Do you think it’s okay to live outside the city for a while?”

"Go outside the city?" Liang Yu hesitated. "I don't have any problems, but you are pregnant and live outside the city. How can it be convenient for you to be in the city?"

"It's okay. I have some people from Huainan around me, and there is Aunt Shi's family in the village. If anything happens, just ask someone to come back and let you know. Living in the city is convenient, but the problem is that it is too convenient." It's gone." Liu Ling raised his hand, pointed in the direction of the imperial city, and said with a soft smile, "People come and go, so you can't live in peace."

Liang Yu seems to understand but does not understand.But she knew that Liu Ling was measured, so she didn't stop her, and readily agreed.

A few days later, Liu Ling left Chang'an City with Deng Guobin and others, came to Maoling Manor, and thanked the guests behind closed doors.
