Song Xiao

Chapter 97 Wild Tiger and Wolf

In the early morning, the black clouds roared against the strong wind, and the world was gloomy and cold.

Chu Tianya is ready to go out to the military patrol shop and patrol the city as usual. When passing through the courtyard, I saw that the light was still on in Xiao Ai and Xiao Linglong's room, and I could faintly hear the two women whispering.

It can be seen that they didn't sleep all night and chatted all night.

Chu Tianya remembered what happened last night, and he couldn't help but be a little gentle. He stepped forward and knocked on the door, and the voice in the room suddenly stopped.

"I'm going out." Chu Tianya said, "It's very messy outside. Don't go out if you have nothing to do. If you need to come to me, ask Ada to come to the military patrol camp of the King's Mansion of Guangyang County. After leaving a message, someone will pass it on your behalf. If necessary, I will come back immediately.

There is no movement in the room, and it is a little quiet.

Chu Tianya seemed to smell the embarrassment and ambiguity. He couldn't help smiling and was ready to leave.

Just then, Xiao Ai hurriedly shouted in the room, "Brother Chu, wait! - Wait, I'll put on a dress!"

"What's the matter?"

"Wait!"

Chu Tianya had to wait patiently for a while. Xiao Ai hurriedly put on a thick cotton-padded jacket and opened the door. He handed a bag of things in his hand to Chu Tianya, "Brother Chu, this is the thing you told me the other day. Is it called... gloves? I saw that you came back and sewed a pair of them overnight. I don't know if it's right or not. Is that right?

Chu Tianya looked surprised. He took it and saw that it was really a pair of gloves. Although the appearance looks a little funny and lame, and the five fingers are neatly as long as the harpoons, the pins are very fine and neat. The soft sheepskin used to make high-quality leather boots is also lined with soft wool inside.

"Great! With this glove, it won't be cold to ride a horse and hold a knife in winter!" Chu Tianya immediately put on the pair of gloves, which were quite warm. He covered her face with both hands and laughed, "Xiao Ai, you are really ingenious and sweet!"

Xiao Ai's face was rubbed into a ball, and he looked very funny. But she smiled happily and bent her eyes, "I'm clumsy, I'm afraid it won't sew well. It's best if Brother Chu likes it!"

"It's good. I like it very much." Chu Tianya nodded and smiled, and pulled the cotton-padded jacket a little tight for her. "It's cold. Go back to the house and rest - has the princess recovered?"

"Okay, it's early, hey hey!" Little Ai snickered, looked back at the room and closed the door, and pulled Chu Tianya to his ear and whispered, "Brother Chu, let me tell you, princess, it's so fun! I teased her that you were frivolous than her and asked her to give you a big fat doll. She was so scared that she didn't sleep all night!"

"Ah?" Chu Tianya was stunned and couldn't help laughing immediately, "How can there be such a stunned person? She and I... obviously didn't happen!"

"Hello! Hey hey! ...Ha-chi-ha!" Xiao Ai smiled and sneezed continuously, and her nose was red with cold. "Why should I say she's funny? Although she usually looks as cold and inviolable as the Empress of the previous dynasty, she is actually quite funny when she is stupid! Hey hey, she doesn't know anything about men and women!"

"Then doesn't she have a good teacher now?" Chu Tianya shook his head and smiled, and rubbed her face twice. "Okay, go back to your room quickly. It's too cold outside. You don't want to have a high fever like her, do you?

"Hey hey... If I'm sick, there are people who can take care of me and take care of me like Brother Chu, but I don't mind getting sick every day." Xiao Ai sucked his nose and whispered.

"Dumb!" Chu Tianya laughed and scolded and pushed her to the room, "Go back quickly!"

"Brother Chu, be careful outside and come back often when you have time!"

"I know!"

Chu Tianya went out of the door with a smile. Raise your hands and look like a pair of bear paws. Although it is clumsy and ugly, these hands are really not cold at all. Compared with the loss of consciousness with frozen hands a few days ago, this is obviously a hundred times stronger now.

"There is a girl who is heartbroken. It's really good!" Chu Tianya laughed to himself, "Xiao Ai is actually very smart, diligent and considerate. Of course, Xiao Linglong is extremely wise, but in some details of life, she is far worse than Xiao Ai. The two of them are together, which is really a good complementary combination.

On the outdoor street, the snow formed a thick layer of ice, and Chu Tianya had to move forward slowly step by step. Pedestrians on the road are extremely rare, and no shop opens. Looking around, the whole city is deserted.

When it arrived at the royal palace of Guangyang County, it was still early. The army had just blown the first horn, and the Huotou army made rice and sent it to all walks of life.

Since the day of the announcement, diet has become the most concerned thing for more than 100,000 people in the city. Chu Tianya took a special look around. Few people waste a grain of rice or a piece of wheat cake, because everyone can only eat 60% to 70% of the food. Many soldiers of the victory army are secretly complaining that these days are too bitter than before. There is no wine, no meat, no women, and no punishment. It is difficult to take care of a full meal!

Chu Tianya sneered secretly and said to himself that in another period of time, this 60% or 70% full meal will also become a luxury. You can be satisfied!

From simple to luxury, from luxury to simple, the ancients did not deceive each other.

Later, Chu Tianya took his military patrols to the treasury and grain to inspect. All the commanders and officials of the whole army have been waiting for him here for a long time. Just for one thing, that is, ask Chu Tianya to approve the grain after signing!

Although these people are not familiar with Chu Tianya and are quite unconvinced, they can't figure out Zhang Zhifu and Wang Dutong. Why should Chu Tianya be in charge of such an important centralized department in this extraordinary period? However, these people have always been familiar with the rules of the game of the officialdom and the army. It's not important to get through. The key is that the official level crushes people to death, and county officials are not as good as the current management - therefore, you must not offend this Chu Tianya!

As soon as Chu Tianya appeared in the granary, he was full of flattery and flattery. In addition, some people racked their brains to flatter him and wanted to get more food indicators from him.

Chu Tianya's attitude and practice in this regard is that they greet each other with a smile and accept all bribes according to the order, but the distribution of grain is still strictly handled in accordance with the rules and regulations. The left hand took the money, and the right hand took it all out and gave it to his men, leaving a penny.

Although gold and silver treasures have temporarily lost their original value and purchasing power, people's mindset is very terrible, otherwise people will not die for money and birds. Chu Tianya completely ignores these things, which does not mean that others don't care. Therefore, when receiving these stolen goods, the sergeants and military patrols under Chu Tianya were still very happy, and they gave Chu Tianya a good reputation of "righteousness and wealth".

Gold and silver are scattered and people are gathered, which is possible in any era. What Chu Tianya wants is people's hearts, others want benefits, and everyone takes what they need. As for those who bribe to please, they see that they have not got more food than others. Although they have grievances, they can't blame. They can only think the other way around - if I don't bribe, maybe I can't get so much food? After all, the difference lies in the thought of the surname Chu. Who dares to raise dissatisfaction with resentment?

Power is really an evil and wonderful thing. No wonder everyone is eager to enjoy it. At this moment, Chu Tianya has a deep understanding.

Later, Chu Tianya was going to Dutong Mansion to inquire about the situation outside the city. He asked someone to take out the grain distributed to the capital and put it in the car and send it in person by the way.

As early as in his previous life, Chu Tianya deeply realized another truth: dealing with people, dealing with people in the front and behind, and three points in the front. I believe that no matter what era, no matter what kind of industry you are engaged in, this can be called truth.

When Wang Yu saw that Chu Tianya personally sent grain, including precious fresh fruits, vegetables, meat and other things, he couldn't help smiling with relief and said, "Tianya, why do you do such a small thing yourself? Don't you have more important things to do?"

"The teacher is as good as his father, and students must be filial every day, which is taken for granted." Chu Tianya smiled and said, "Where's Brother Wang?"

"He rushed to the north gate to inspect and build two arrow towers and carved towers. The dog has been very diligent recently. He must have been influenced by you. Wang Qian stroked his beard and said with a smile, "You came just in time. I have something to tell you."

"But is it about the movement of the women's army?" Chu Tianya said, "The student is about to ask about the teacher."

"Then our master and apprentice really coincide." Wang Yu said with a smile, "Come on, talk to the inner hall."

Chu Tianya asked his men to load and unload the grain, and then ordered Liu Scar and Jiang Laosan to take people to inspect all the military patrol shops in the city later. If there is a big event, I will return it immediately.

The master and apprentice went to Wang's study, where the stove was raised, which was much warmer than outside. Wang is a rare incorruptible. Although the official is in a high position, he is never extravagant and wasteful and does not pursue extravagant enjoyment. The furnishings at home are very simple and even a little shabby. Even the stove is not too hot. It can only ensure that the hot tea on the stove is not cold, and occasionally it can roast frozen feet.

"Look, this is the news that the rebels outside the city sent people to shoot in yesterday." Wang Yu handed a scroll-like letter to Chu Tianya.

Chu Tianya Zhanxin took a look and his face suddenly changed slightly. "The Jurman army has already gone out, and it is blatantly and impatient?" How can you be so unscrupulous!"

"The female barbarian, I don't pay attention to our Song at all!" Wang Yu snorted and said, "Because Yelu Yu saw the incident, and the strong wall of Taiyuan Mansion is so popular, it is difficult for the real woman not to know the news. But they had to shoot on the string of the arrows, so they simply set up a frame and went south with great fanfare! It is estimated that within three days, their front will ring under the city of Taiyuan!"

"This is also expected..." Chu Tianya nodded with a serious expression and said, "Originally, the real actress did not really intend to hide their intention to tear up the covenant and invade south. Yelu Yu saw the purpose of this trip to the south. The first is to declare war, the second is to delay the time, and the third is to wait for the opportunity to destroy, including the assassination of my Bian Shuai in the Song Dynasty, resulting in a situation where our dragons have no leader.

Except for the third of the above three articles, which was made up by Chu Tianya in order to meet the scene and lie for himself, the other two are indeed true. Wang Yu is a well-in-understand person, but at this point, he can't argue with Chu Tianya and hit him in the face.

Therefore, Wang Yu nodded and said, "The heroine is stubborn, a hundred times better than Khitan. Moreover, the current Jude is no longer an ignorant, barbaric and simple Jushi at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China. In the ten-year battle against Liaoning, they gradually learned power and strategy, and became cunning and treacherous. Originally, their army was fierce and good at fighting, coupled with the experience and intrigue accumulated in ten years of war, they are like a group of tigers and wolves from the wilderness. In addition to hunger, ferocity and cunning, they are also orderly and well-founded... Standing in the standpoint of a soldier, the objective evaluation is currently coming to Taiyuan. The real army can be called the real 'tiger and wolf division'!"
