The Adventures of the Mad County King on the Domain [Infrastructure]

He pressed the blindfold back to its original place, suppressing the upset in his heart, but he heard a soldier in the back row whispering: "...what he said seemed to make sense, the brother Xing who took me before had symptoms very similar to what he said ah."

"...But we've never heard of such a truth?"

"This county king's words are so evil!"

"Marching and fighting, how can there be such a long time, is it not worth losing your life for a hot meal?!"

……

Everyone whispered.Xie Qian is not deaf, but has sharp ears, so of course he can hear clearly.But he neither refuted nor continued to persuade, but turned around, strode back to the cart, and lifted the lid of the cart vigorously.

In the cauldron, hot mist suddenly rose, and the aroma of rice porridge spread out.The soldiers who were not conscious at first were instantly awakened by the aroma, their stomach rumbled one after another, and many of them subconsciously swallowed their saliva.

The aroma of porridge and rice was far more effective than any lobbying, and the voices against the meal suddenly fell by more than half.

Seeing this, He Feiyun could only wave his hands, put up with Xie Qian's nonsense tricks to win people's hearts, and said: "That's all. I'm not here for a battle, and I don't need to rush to help in the starry night. King Ningjun wants to invite you to dinner, so I will take it myself." Eat, and leave camp in two quarters."

Xie Qian breathed a sigh of relief, first filled out two bowls of porridge, brought them over with a playful smile, and said, "General He is really reasonable, come, come, let's go on the road together when we are full."

He Feiyun glanced at him, completely ignoring him.The accounts of Yonganmen haven't been settled yet, so what nonsense is this bastard talking about?Who and what way? !

But who is Xie Qian, more than just four words can describe it?He Feiyun's indifference was completely within his expectation.

As long as he received a reply, he said to himself: "Gu's general He is too smart to fight? What kind of tricks are those, can you tell Gu?"

He Feiyun was so angry that he almost laughed.

say what?Is it easier to be harassed while talking?

He didn't even look at the porridge, once again seeing Xie Qian as air, turned around and left.

Xie Qian immediately went around to block it.

He Feiyun turned around again, and was circled back to the other side.

Back and forth, the two circled around three or five times.He Feiyun didn't get rid of Xie Qian, and Xie Qian couldn't get around to He Feiyun's front either.However, Xie Qian didn't spill a single drop from the two bowls of porridge that Xie Qian was holding, and his posture around people was casual and flexible, which was obviously practiced.

He Feiyun wondered: "You know how to play Cuju?"

Xie Qian's eyes lit up, and he was pleasantly surprised: "Feiyun really has insight, could it be that he also knows this way?"

Before he finished speaking, a chill came over his face.

Xie Qian had cultivated an excellent sense of avoiding crises since he was a child, and suddenly the alarm bells sounded, and before the chill ran up his spine, he took several steps back.

It's killing intent!

He stared at He Feiyun in disbelief.

However, in fact, He Feiyun only frowned, snorted coldly, pushed him away with the scabbard of his sword, and didn't touch the corner of Xie Qian's clothes, and took advantage of his retreat to turn around walk away.

"Oh, general, this is a foul!" Xie Qian yelled at the retreating figure, and felt a pity, and only had one thought in his mind: It shouldn't be...didn't he just call his name, why is he so fierce.

He watched people go away eagerly, and then he was willing to look away, and sighed at the unfortunate and heroic bowl of porridge on the ground: "Oh, the lonely general doesn't care about food. This is a bad thing. It would be great if we can change it in the future."

After sighing, Xie Qian handed the other porridge that survived in his hand to Xiaoxiu, and said, "Beauties don't eat it, and orphans don't have appetite. You can eat it." After speaking, he went back to the carriage with an empty stomach .

After breakfast, the carriage team and the Flying Eagle Army set off.After walking less than ten miles, the team really repeated the same mistakes as the previous day, and became sparse, not only unable to see each other from head to tail, but even separated by a full five or six miles.

This can't be blamed on the Flying Eagle Army. After a hot breakfast, the soldiers are all in high spirits, and their feet are full of wind.Let alone ten miles, even if you march a hundred miles in one breath, you must not break the formation.

If you want to blame, you can only blame Xie Qian's team for not being able to do it, and it's not just generally not working, but quite badly.If at least half of the drivers in a convoy are novices, or even cooks and carpenters, then no one can make the convoy run neatly.

However, why is it that the motorcade of the majestic county king is not even equipped with a driver?

This has to start with... why Xie Qian was demoted.

Whether it is relegation, exile, or even personnel rationing, the root cause of all of them is just two words: anti-marriage.

Today's son Xie Liu is Xie Qian's third elder brother. After the former emperor passed away, he took on the important affairs of the emperor's younger brother's marriage as a matter of course.Within a year, the elder brother of the emperor, who managed everything every day, proposed three marriages for Xie Qian in succession.

However, Xie Qian, a bastard, resisted again and again, using the well-known reason in Chang'an City: he broke his sleeve.

Of course, in addition to this sentence, there is another half sentence, which was tightly locked up in the inner court by the emperor: he can't treat women.

No matter how upright Xie Qian was, such a reason was more intolerable to the king of Dayue than the smoky rumors.A mere dandy king who can't do anything can't even bear the responsibility of marriage. This is too wasteful and unforgivable!

The first time he resisted the marriage, the emperor sneered, thinking that Xie Qian's playfulness hadn't stopped, so he let it go.

In the second round of anti-marriage, the emperor sent three wives, closed the door and reprimanded Xie Qian for three months. The content was nothing more than: the royal family does not raise waste.

When it was the third time, Xie Qian knelt in front of the palace gate without eating or drinking, and knelt for three days and three nights, only begging that one would not marry for life.Xie Liu's tolerance finally reached its limit, and he issued an imperial edict, asking Xie Qian to get out of Chang'an within ten days, go to his desolate fiefdom and reflect on it, unless he changes his mind and decides to marry a wife, he will not be allowed to return within three years Beijing.

Xie Qian was grateful to Dade, turned around and wrote a plan all night and handed it to his brother emperor. The content has nothing to do with regret, roughly as follows:

The climate of the feudal domain was different from that of Chang'an. He was "fearful of unacceptable water and soil" and wanted to bring eighteen imperial cooks.The customs of the vassal are different from those in Chang'an, "I can't sleep on the bamboo bed in the southwest", and I have to take eighteen carpenter apprentices who have completed their studies as a supervisor (Note 1).

Xie Liu only glanced at it twice, and was so angry that he smashed a good inkstone on the spot, and cursed: "Bastard bastard!"

However, no matter how outrageous Xie Qian is, no matter how hard he is to support him, he is still the emperor's last and only young brother.During the first emperor's lifetime, the nine sons seized the heir apparent, which had hurt the royal blood. Now Xie Liu had to be "satisfied" because of the royal face, in order to leave the title of "benevolence" behind him. This seems crazy, but it is not. Extraordinary requirements.It's just that there is no room for change in the matter of "Jiu Fan".

Xie Qian was overjoyed when he got the promise, and went to the imperial dining room to pick someone for the general in person.In contrast to his joy and joy, the two chief servants and the head of the Ministry of Industry were not happy at all, and could even be called gloomy.

It is not difficult to train an obedient handyman, but it takes at least three to ten years to train a skilled craftsman and cook.In Xie Qian's words, if you draw close to No. 20 people, it is equivalent to taking away most of the most useful talents in a group. This is undoubtedly a big blow to running a good job.This bastard Xie Qian is simply tearing down other people's team, so that others can do nothing, what a bastard bastard!

Completely offended the boss in charge, although it would not affect Xie Qian's quality of life in Chang'an, but the deadline for leaving was crushed to death.Given his status, if he is willing to give in, or take a step back and choose a craftsman with less backbone to make a compromise, then let alone stay for ten or eight days, even if he waits until the end of the year or even after the New Year before leaving, it is not unreasonable.Come now, let alone half a day, don't even think about half an hour, all the luggage that can't be packed will be sealed, and if there are not enough people, find a way by yourself, in short, hurry up.

After all the tossing, Xie Qian busily packed up his odds and ends, and managed to gather ten horse-drawn carriages and ten wooden carts carrying goods.Except for the real cook and carpenter, all the other staff were improvised.

The coachman did not recruit enough, and the standard of the guest coachman was lowered so that he could ride in the car without falling off, so it was natural for everyone to be held back.

The roads on the first day were almost all official roads, and the speed would not vary too much.But even so, Xie Qian's convoy was still procrastinating, and it was delayed until the evening and failed to reach the post station, and finally dragged down the Flying Eagle Army to camp in the wild.

Today, for the sake of having a hot meal, the Flying Eagle Army had no choice but to split up into two teams and come over to help take care of the convoy.

The soldiers have been in the army for many years, and almost everyone can drive, so they can tell something strange at a glance.Some people really can't see it, so they have to start driving instead.After going back and forth, the speed of the carriage has increased, but the cooks and carpenters are not good at riding horses, so they can only lead the horse on foot or the carriage is overloaded. In short, change the way and continue to drag the others.

It took an hour for the whole team to patrol around, and it took more than a quarter of an hour to gallop. When the patrolmen came back after finally running around, He Feiyun finally couldn't bear it anymore.

He told the Flying Eagle Army to stop and rectify on the spot, and waited for another hour before the last carriage finally arrived late.

It's okay to walk slowly, and it's okay to be careless.What's even more exasperating is that the convoy that arrived at the station earlier stopped and did not even tie the wheels (※Note 2), but impatiently dug a pit and made a stove to cook lunch.It's nothing more than cooking, and the food is still fragrant, which seriously disturbed the morale of the Flying Eagle Army.

He Feiyun has already sighed so much, but he is very helpless with the current situation.The destination of this trip is located in the southwest, which is an outer county called "Shu Sisheng". The beginning of spring in the coming year may not be able to arrive.

After another three or four days, we will cross the Guanzhong Plain and enter the steep mountain road.Among the lofty mountains, not only are there threats from wild animals, but there is also a high probability that they will be attacked by bandits.Even if they were lucky and didn't encounter anything, these carriages with no driving experience at all might lose to the rugged mountain road.

And once in danger, these people, chariots and horses are the meat on the chopping board and can only be slaughtered.

The task is arduous and the road is long. He Feiyun had expected it when he finally got the imperial decree, but he didn't expect to face Xie Qian who he absolutely didn't want to deal with.But this person is the lord of the feudal land, and when he arrives in Shu County, he will serve as the garrison general and stay there for a long time.One government and one army, no matter what, you can't avoid official contacts with them.

In desperation, after only two hours, He Feiyun had no choice but to turn around and look for Xie Qian who he had rejected twice in a row.

Fortunately, Xie Qian was also looking for him, and the two met face to face on the way.He Feiyun went straight to the point: "Please Prince Ning to rectify the convoy. If you are unable to rectify, this general can do it for you."

His tone was very blunt and rather unkind.

Xie Qian didn't take it seriously, after all, he had seen too many human relationships, especially the "cold" part, which had been trained to be extremely proficient during the ten days of staying in Chang'an.So, he lightly skipped this small obstacle, and said: "General He is too polite, I have to do this little thing alone, General He loves Gu so much, I feel very relieved."

He Feiyun choked, his expression became more condensed, and he said: "...What do you mean? Could it be that you are deliberately delaying the trip and waiting for a recall order?!"
