    After Hong Yun'er heard Xiao Yungui's words, she couldn't help but laugh out loud. Xiao Yungui asked with wide eyes, "Why are you laughing?"

    Hong Yun'er put her hands behind her hands and went ahead. She glanced at Lin Qirong, who had a puzzled look on her face, and turned around and said, "It's nothing. Let's go back to the city first."

    Xiao Yungui knew that this four-eyed girl must have something to say, but because Lin Qirong didn't say anything, he coughed lightly and said: "Brother Lin, I'll leave this place to you. There are Brother Li Yiwen and his troops in the north, but what's the matter?  The news will be communicated immediately.¡±

    Lin Qirong clasped his fists and loudly accepted the order. Xiao Yungui and Hong Xuanjiao then led their guards to look at Changsha City.

    On the road, Xiao Yungui rode his horse and Hong Yun'er rode side by side, and asked doubtfully: "What were you laughing at just now?"

    Hong Yun'er sighed softly and said: "I laugh at you for not overestimating your capabilities and actually trying to win over Shi Dakai. Have you forgotten that you, the King of the West, Xiao Chaogui, had an entanglement with him in the past? He will not mess with you now no matter what."

    Xiao Yungui asked curiously: "What's the dispute between Shi Dakai and I? He will be his Wing King, and I will be my West King. We are all good brothers."

    Hong Yuner helplessly slapped her forehead and said, "Oh my god, it seems that Xiao Chaogui has selectively forgotten this matter again."

    Xiao Yungui snorted: "Do you know something? Tell me quickly. I thought about it over and over again, but I have no clue."

    Hong Yun'er said sternly: "Shi Dakai is the number one figure among the six kings of Shouyi. He is not only good at civil and military affairs, but also a righteous and kind man. He is also a Hakka from Guixian County, Guangxi. He lost his father when he was young. As the saying goes, children of poor people become the masters early. He has eight,  He has been working alone since he was nine years old. Apart from farming and doing business, he has been practicing martial arts and literature. At the age of thirteen, he has behaved like an adult. Because he is chivalrous and good at charity, he often solves problems for others. He is honored as Mr. Shi Xianggong even before he is young.  . When he was sixteen years old, Hong Xiuquan and Feng Yunshan admired his name and personally visited the Shi family to invite him to plan a grand plan together. Tell me how high his reputation is for Hong Xiuquan and Feng Yunshan to invite him personally. "

    Xiao Yungui frowned and said, "Is it because of his high reputation that he offended Xiao Chaogui?"

    Hong Yun'er nodded and said: "This is just one of the reasons. At that time, Yang Xiuqing and Xiao Chaogui were plotting to suppress Feng Yunshan and the Wang family of Shigu, known as Zhutang. Shi Dakai joined the meeting again. His reputation and talent were extremely high, which made Yang  Xiao had one more competitor, and Xiao Chaogui naturally disliked Shi Dakai. Xiao Chaogui was not very literate, and he was very jealous of people who had read books. He was afraid that Shi Dakai, who was both civilized and military, would overwhelm him, so he squeezed Shi Dakai everywhere. Later, Xiao Chaogui asked Tian  Brother came to earth, Shi Dakai even contradicted Brother Tian in person, and the relationship between the two became even more tense."

    Xiao Yungui touched his chin and said: "I didn't expect that there are so many rights and wrongs, and we need to repair interpersonal relationships. Fortunately, I am the one who makes the decision now. Let's slowly make up with him. Even if it doesn't work out in the end, we don't have to meet each other like this."  Enemy."

    Hong Yun'er smiled sweetly and said: "Then it depends on your means and charm."

    When they arrived at the gate of the city, a group of wounded soldiers, Hu Jiumei and Xie Manmei from the city, had already come out with troops from the Jinxiu Female Battalion to join the city. When the female soldiers heard that Sister Hu and many sisters and brothers had died in the battle, they couldn't help but shed tears.  Thinking of Sister Hu, Hong Yun'er couldn't help but feel sad. Xiao Yungui was most afraid of this kind of mother-in-law thing, so he could only go ahead in silence.

    Zhou Yiduan and her son were sitting in the cart and followed Xiao Yungui and Hong Yun'er into the city. They lifted the curtain of the cart and looked out. They saw that everything inside and outside Changsha was as safe as before. The people were still busy making a living, and all businesses in the city were open, but not  Many people spontaneously put on red headscarves.  There are still children playing on the street, singing nursery rhymes while playing: "Root vines climb on the high wall, and the people rely on King Xiao. The chessboard pays tens of millions of grains, and the rich man is scared. Green bamboo poles, white bamboo platforms, welcome the west."  The king has come home. Kill the two robbers, Weng and Luo, and I, the common people, will raise their heads."

    Zhou Yiduan asked strangely: "Who are the two robbers Weng and Luo talking about?"

    Sitting in the cart with Zhou Yiduan's mother and son were Li Xuanji and Yang Dongqing. Li Xuanji said bitterly: "Of course they are talking about Qingyao Governor Luo Bingzhang and Chief Envoy Weng Tongjue. On the day Changsha City was destroyed, the two dog officials  The vicious general burned down the official warehouse, causing the refugees and people in the city to almost have no food. Fortunately, the King of the West came up with a strange plan and asked the wealthy families in the city to donate money and food, so that all the people could get food."

    Zhou Yiduan let out an oh, raised his eyebrows and smiled slowly: "What strange plan did the King of the West come up with?" Li Xuanji told the story of collecting donations on the chessboard. Zhou Yiduan listened with great interest, and applauded together with the two children.  Shout out.

    "When I left this morning, I met King Xi from a distance through the car curtain. Looking at his rough and arrogant appearance, I didn't expect that he had such a delicate mind." Zhou Yiduan pursed his lips and smiled and said: "It's no wonder, Xi  The princess is such a talented person with both civil and military skills, so her husband must also be a great hero."

    While we were talking, the bullock cart had already arrived for inspection.In front of the Yamen, Hong Yun'er came to pick up Zhou Yiduan's mother and son from the car. Zhou Yiduan met Zuo Zongtang anxiously and asked, "Princess Xi, where is my master now?"

    Hong Yun'er smiled slightly and said, "Don't be anxious. Mr. Zuo has gone to Zhu Changlin's house at Zhugan No. in the city. Madam, you and the children should freshen up and have some food first. Mr. Zuo will come to meet you in a while."

    Zhou Yiduan did not doubt that he was there, so he followed Li Xuanji and Yang Dongqing into the house with his children. Hong Yun'er ordered his two daughters to take care of mother and son, and set up a separate wing in the backyard for mother and son to live temporarily.  After the separation was decided, Hong Yun'er went to the lobby to see the messenger sent by Shi Dakai. Xiao Yungui went there first as soon as he arrived at the house. Hong Yun'er also wanted to hear what Shi Dakai said in his letter.

    When they came to the hall, they saw Xiao Yungui already sitting in the front seat, holding a letter and looking at it carefully. Sitting next to him was a young man, only fifteen or sixteen years old. He was very handsome, but Hong Yun'er took a look at it.  Then he recognized that this person was Shi Dakai's younger brother, Shi Zhenji, the sect of the Yi Kingdom.

    When Shi Zhenji saw Hong Yun'er coming in, he hurriedly stood up, clasped his fists and saluted, and said loudly: "I pay my respects to the Queen of the West."

    Hong Yun'er pursed her lips and smiled and said: "It turns out that Brother Shi came to deliver the letter in person. Didn't he encounter any danger on the way?"

    Shi Zhenji was very tall, but quite thin. He grinned and said: "The King of the West and the Queen of the West swept away the Qingyao all the way, just like sweeping holes and plowing the garden. No Qingyao was seen all the way from Liling to Changsha.  "This Shi Zhenji is very literate, obviously influenced by Shi Dakai and also educated.

    Hong Yun'er sat in the empty seat next to him and said with a smile: "Sit down and talk, brother Yi Wang, how are you?"

    Shi Zhenji waved his robe and sat down and said with a smile: "Brother Wang is very good. This time the Western King succeeded in his surprise attack on Changsha. Brother Wang often said that this time it was the Western King who accomplished extraordinary feats. I and other descendants all admire the Western King."  Because of his reputation, he wants to follow the King of the West to fight against the demons."

    Xiao Yungui finished reading the letter at this time, stood up and walked to Hong Yun'er, handed the letter to her to read, turned to look at Shi Zhenji and said: "It's easy to defeat the demon, there are many opportunities. It's just that the letter from Da Compatriot said that Chenzhou Brigade  Going north, food is scarce, and winter robes are not enough. I want you to make preparations in advance. Food is not a difficult task. The autumn grain is ripe in the near future, so I will arrange people to harvest it, and the big households in the city will also pay and deliver the food on time. But this winter is just a matter of time.  It's hard to prepare robes. I will discuss it with him in detail tomorrow when Da Xi arrives. Go back and tell Da Xi that the king has prepared camps and food in the city, and wait for him to lead the army into the city to rest.  Well, tomorrow the king will go to the south of the city in person to greet the army of Da compatriots!"

    Shi Zhenji was overjoyed. He stood up and bowed deeply and said, "His Royal Highness the King of the West has a great reputation. I will definitely bring him to you. I will go back and send a message."

    Hong Yun'er stood up and said with a smile: "Don't be anxious, have something to eat and then go back."

    Shi Zhenji clasped his fists and said, "Thank you so much, Queen Xi. When we arrived in Changsha, Guard Zeng had already arranged meals. I will go back first to prevent Brother Wang from waiting impatiently." After that, he said goodbye and left.

    Xiao Yungui and Hong Yun'er arrived at the door. After seeing Shi Zhenji go away, Xiao Yungui's face immediately darkened, and he turned back to the lobby with a heavy snort, and said angrily: "What the hell is this? Really?  Fucking infuriating!¡±

    Hong Yun'er followed slowly, sat down on the chair and sighed: "No wonder you are angry. The King of Heaven and King Dong must have received the document you sent to report the victory. There has been no reply of encouragement for many days. On the contrary,  As soon as King Yi arrived at Liling, he sent someone to ask for food and clothing. Although the wording in King Yi's letter was polite, there was a hint of Dong Wang's handwriting, and it was obvious that Dong Wang had some jealousy in his heart."

    Xiao Yungui said bitterly: "A bunch of ignorant people who only know how to fight in a nest. I am working hard in the front, and they can just sit back and enjoy the results. I didn't even mention the rewards I requested for my subordinates Lin Fengxiang and Li Kaifang. It's really too much."  It¡¯s infuriating.¡±

    Hong Yun'er frowned and said: "Qi Guiqi, we still have to think about how to deal with it. Now it's just the Wing King who has arrived, and there are two bigger big horns behind him. It will be really tricky if we don't do it well."

    Xiao Yungui walked around irritably with his hands behind his hands: "I know they are asking for directions. They want Shi Dakai to test me first. They can gather tens of thousands of troops just after they capture some small counties. I, Xiao Chaogui, occupy the capital of a province and say  Maybe I don't take them seriously, they are worried that I have second thoughts and will use this matter to beat me."

    Hong Yun'er nodded and frowned: "I thought of an allusion, which is very similar to our current situation."

    Xiao Yungui turned around and asked, "What allusion?"

    Hong Yun'er said word for word: "The one who enters Guanzhong first will be the king!"

    Xiao Yungui steadied his body, took a deep breath and said: "Yes, we are now like Liu Bang who entered Xianyang first. We have a colorful world at our fingertips, but there is Xiang Yu's army outside who is watching with eagerness. If we don't get it right, he will come out.  Hongmen Banquet." He said quietlyAfter making up his mind, he took a few steps and said slowly: "We should make a soft gesture next to let the King of Heaven and King of the East dispel their doubts. The best way is"

    Hong Yun'er smiled and nodded: "Seal the treasury to pacify the people, and return the army to Ba Shang!"

    Xiao Yungui said with a bitter face: "I also know that this is the only way to eliminate their doubts, but it is really unwilling to give up the things that I have worked so hard to win."

    Hong Yun'er comforted: "If we want to separate from Hong Yang, we must first gain their trust. The holy treasury in the city will be sealed, and an inscription will be published to inform the people. We will loudly promote the mighty virtues of the Heavenly King and the Eastern King to calm the people's hearts. We will lead the army to garrison  Miaodaofeng in the south of the city, give them the city of Changsha. When the time is right, we will lead our troops and part ways with them. We must endure the temporary anger now so that we can spread our wings and fly high in the future. The man can bend and stretch. We can take those things ten times and a hundred times in the future.  return!"

    Xiao Yungui slapped the desk and said bitterly: "Okay! Let's just endure the anger for a while and gain some freedom in the future! I'll have people come to Zeng Shuiyuan right away to count the accounts and prepare to close the treasury and bring peace to the people!"
