[Comprehensive] The five elements are short of money

Hubu Shangshu Qi Wei has already stationed in Nanchang, a Shangshu is naturally extremely capable, in the face of a great war, no matter how many young people are able to endure in front of foreign enemies, unite as one to resist foreign humiliation.

"Qi Wei is originally from the south, and he is also a Jinshi in the Nanbang list. There are many fellow villagers of the same age, so he can be said to be like a fish in water in Nanchang." Yinshuang sighed.

The enemy has become stronger, which is comparable to the weakening of our own side. Xue Xun has no experience yet. This is not a pure market competition.

"It's just a small victory, why did the master panic?" Mr. Ma looked disgusted.

Xue Xun said ashamedly: "I made Mr. a joke. You are young and have little qualifications. I have never met him before. I really can't calm down."

Mr. Niu smoothed things over and said: "The master is already a rare young talent, and he is always like this when encountering unexpected situations, let alone His Royal Highness, who is 'a favorite of thousands of people'?"

"You mean..." Mr. Ma asked suspiciously.

"Exactly!" Mr. Niu nodded clearly.

As an aide, Mr. Niu's comments on the proprietor are really out of proportion, but they have served the Xue family since Master Xue's generation, and it is also an act of kindness that they can continue to stay by Xue Xun's side.Don't look at their identities as aides, but their help to Xue Xun is greater than that of Sanfang's clan.Regarding these two gentlemen, Xue Xun relied on the principle of "respecting talents" and relied heavily on them.

Mr. Niu has always admired Yang Mou, who is upright, how could he want to make a fuss about the prince this time.

Xue Xun had this doubt, but he didn't hide it, and asked naturally.

Mr. Niu said with a smile: "What kind of old-fashioned old man is this old man in the eyes of the master!"

"Sir..." Xue Xun was in a hurry to explain, but Mr. Niu interrupted: "Yangmou, it doesn't mean he doesn't know how to adapt and let others slaughter him!"

Mr. Ma added: "The prince is very happy, self-willed, and has no tolerance for others. His majesty can bear the anger for a while, but the prince can't bear it. The prince is in the center, so don't you know that there is such a disaster? , it is because he is not good at supervising the battle, and further, it is the result of his taking the General Secretary. The prince will not think that he is wrong, and now he is suppressed by His Majesty and reluctantly endured. He naturally jumped out and dragged his feet. This is a flaw in character, and we don't need to design and provoke it. Duke Pingguo is self-aware and would rather give in first, but His Royal Highness, the proud son of heaven, will not."

Hearing what Mr. Ma said, Xue Xun was relieved. They had no one to use around the prince, and they only arranged a few rough envoys who couldn't get close to the prince. .

Xue Xun was worried that the Prince of Nan'an would rise up and threaten the Xue family. Now that he knew that his victory would also have the effect of confusing the prince and fueling the prince's arrogance, it was also a blessing and a blessing, so he felt relieved.

But even in the face of the disaster of the Xue family's overthrow, his subordinates did not suggest that he betray our military intelligence, or maliciously sabotage Qi Wei's measures to appease the people, Xue Xun was very pleased.He consciously has a way out, Xue Yue has a fleet at sea, if it is impossible to retreat overseas is also a way out, maybe it is better than this dynasty.But other people don't know Xue Xun's thoughts. They still think that it is hard to leave their homeland and the fallen leaves return to their roots. Under such circumstances, they still have their own moral bottom line. Xue Xun is very pleased.

Even Mr. Ma, who was a gangster at the time, insisted on the country's right and wrong. Only when there is a bottom line will there be no lunatics. Xue Xun once again admires Mr. Xue who died young. What kind of vision did he cultivate these two His staff is really amazing!

"Let's divide our manpower into three parts. One part is to protect the old house, and the focus is on Jinling. Don't capsize in the gutter. If something happens, we have room to retreat. The other part is in the south. Focus on the Nanchang and naval battles. In the current situation, when the war starts, a lot of news is not available, so there is no need to force it, we can’t get any news, the army can always get it, just keep an eye on Nanchang Qiwei. Another thing is to maintain contact with Brother Yue, he is our last retreat.” Xue Xun instructed that after this year's experience, he was already somewhat confident, and there was no need to add an extra question at the end of each instruction to solicit the opinions of his staff and subordinates.

"Yes." Several people got up and answered.

After discussing the overall situation, Tie Xue went out to hold his fists. He didn't come this time to accompany the last seat to sit in. He came this time to protect the staff. "Master, Anbu has already sacrificed 13 brothers this month, and there are countless injuries. It is necessary to replenish the manpower."

"So serious?" Xue Xun was taken aback. Then he thought that not only Shi Gui was staring at them, but also the royal secret agent and the General Secretary who had defected from them. To maintain the safety of the old house and inquire about news, the Anbu guards worked hard and sacrificed a lot.

"Golden Beast, the pension can be paid in place. If there are family members, the Xue family will take care of them; if there are no descendants, let's put the corpses in the family temple for salvation. In the future, I will build a hall of loyalty and justice. The brother who threw his head and blood for my Xue family. This is a family motto and will be passed on to future generations."

Xue Xun's plain words sounded like thunder to Tie Xue's ears, he knelt down in the middle, and said in a deep voice: "Thank you, master." There seemed to be a choking sound in his voice.

"Get up quickly, Tie Xue, you are not much older than me, we grew up together, you have done a lot for me, that's all I can do." Xue Xun helped Tie Xue up, and sighed.

The dark guards who can enter the iron-blooded camp are naturally loyal and brave people selected by thousands of people. These people are waiting to retire from the front line after the age of 30, or serve as stewards or instructors. No one has a family, even though the Xue family paid a lot of pensions to the families of the sacrificed guards.Many of the guards who entered the dark guard camp were orphans and could not remember their ancestors' surnames, so Xue Xun said that he wanted to build a hall of loyalty and righteousness, so that these guards who had no descendants and could not remember their ancestors could enjoy incense.

"In the past, you could go to the war zone to bring back orphans to be raised, but now the situation is urgent, how can you do this? Can the two gentlemen have a good plan?" Xue Xun asked the two gentlemen Niu Ma, he really didn't know about this, Xue Xun secretly thought I sigh that I still have a lot to learn.

The General Secretary couldn't find any more manpower. The Xue family never kept prisoners in confrontations with outsiders. Even if they kept their loyalty, it would be a big problem. They were as witty as the two gentlemen, and they couldn't conjure up manpower out of thin air.

"Can't the Xue family's hidden guard training camp squeeze out more people?" Mr. Ma asked.

"They're all three-legged pussies. In actual combat, they can only be used as targets. The dark guard camp trains one person and invests hundreds of taels of silver. They don't dare to waste money like this." Tie Xue is a rough man, and his words are similar to those of the Xue family. Demeanor, every sentence is inseparable from silver, the nature of merchants~

"Don't worry, Tie Xue, I take this matter to heart. I can't think of a way for a while, I'll think about it when I get down." Xue Xun comforted him. He really can't think of a way right now. People, talents, how can we recruit talents?

After the discussion was over, everyone filed out, and Xue Xun took the golden beast to the stable.

"Why did the master think of riding a horse?" asked the golden beast.

"It's time to loosen your muscles and bones, and teach your wife how to ride a horse!" Xue Xun originally knew how to ride a horse, both in body and soul, but Xue Xun can't guarantee how well the two are integrated, so he still has to try it first.The agreed couple grow up together, but he still wants to maintain the majesty of his husband in front of his wife ←_←

The stables were cleaned very clean, there were only a dozen or so horses here, all of which were excellent horses under Xue Xun's name, and they were exclusively for the master of the Xue family.Xue Xun picked a horse at random and got used to it. He found that once he learned how to ride a horse, it was a lifetime thing, and it was still useful in different time and space.It was a little rusty at the beginning, but after running two laps, it can be said that my heart moved freely.

Xue Xun led the horse to the small school grounds. The old house of the Xue family was originally rebuilt from the duke's mansion. The Xue family has a small population in the past. The small school grounds have not been demolished in these years. It is usually used by the guards of the mansion.

Xue Xun had already sent someone to inform Mrs. Xue that when he led his good horse and picked another docile mare to arrive at the small school yard, Mrs. Xue had already changed into the horse riding attire and was waiting.

"What about the cloak, why did you come out without a cloak?" Jinling is also very cold in winter, and she just gave birth, so it's no joke if she catches a cold.

"I'm carrying it." Xue Wang pointed to the big cloak held by the little maid next to her, "I've already walked around the small school grounds five times. Look at the sweat. Why did you go and delay for so long?"

"Hey..." Xue Xun led the good horse he had just ridden and said, "I saw Lie Xinxi in the stable, and ran a little bit."

Xue Wang's eyes were teasing, the "two circles" are really long!

Seeing the smile in Xue Wang's eyes, Xue Xun was a little annoyed, he led the horse in front of her and said, "Has A Su ever ridden a horse before?" Many girls screamed in fright when they saw a tall horse for the first time.

"Anyway, she is a daughter from a general's family. Have you never eaten horse meat or seen a horse run?" Xue Wang said calmly: "When I was young, my father carried me on a ride, but now I can't remember what it was like. .”

Xue Wangshi looked calm, but when she brought the mare over, she dared not reach out to pet it.

Xue Xun grabbed her hand, pressed it to the horse's head, gently stroked the horse's mane, and said with a smile, "Look, it likes you." scholar.

"Here, horses like sweets, so you can bribe them." Xue Xun first took her to develop a relationship with the horse, teasing and stroking the horse's body, and saw Xue Wang standing beside him no longer looking like she was ready to pull her legs at any time. The expression of running away, and then let her lead the mare around the small school field.

Only when Xue Wangshi dared to get along with the horse by herself and stopped her physical activities, Xue Xun guided her to climb on the horse's back, first let him lead the rein and pace slowly, then let Xue Wangshi control the rein by herself, and finally It is the horse galloping, and this process cannot be completed without three or five months.

Riding a horse for the first time today, even though Xue Wang said that she is a "military general's girl", but the fact is that she married Jinling by boat, when did she get in touch with horses.I thought that being able to get along with the horse smoothly today had reached the standard, but I didn't expect that she had exceeded the task and could sit on the back of the horse to experience what "riding a horse" is.

"Okay, let's stop here today, let's come back tomorrow." Xue Xun carried the reluctant Xue Wangshi off the horse.

"Brother Hao, I think I can ride for a while~" Xue Wang said coquettishly.

"Silly girl, do you understand step by step? I don't feel it now. I can't straighten my legs when I sleep at night. I really have learned it if I don't wear calluses on both sides of my thighs when I ride a horse." Xue Wang said in The horse's back has been tense all the time, and his legs are rigidly sandwiched between the horse's belly. Tonight, his legs must be trembling with pain.

"But I want to learn more." Xue Wang said in a low voice.

"A good deal will come true sooner or later. Look at you, too. You couldn't finish walking the yard on the first day. Now you can walk back and forth three times. Let's take our time."

"But I want to learn quickly!" Xue Wang insisted, "I don't want to be a weak spot, so I don't want to hold you back."

Xue Xun looked at his stubborn wife with tears in his eyes, and sighed slightly, because he was too nervous and frightened her.
