Chapter 145 This Matter

Mu Guiying and Yang Zongfeng drove the carriage at a short speed. It was not until dawn that they arrived at Tonggu Village.

Although Wang Lanying knew what Mu Guiying had done from Zhang Li, she was not very clear about what happened after Zhang Li left. Moreover, in Wang Lanying's heart, there are also some things she wants to say to Mu Guiying. However, seeing Mu Guiying's tired face, Wang Lanying still put up with what was in her heart and let Mu Guiying have a good sleep.

When Mu Guiying came out of the room in high spirits, before Wang Lanying said anything, Mu Guiying asked first, "Sister Wang, is yesterday's alliance meeting going well?"

"Since Bao Yong left, it has been smooth." Wang Lanying knew what Mu Guiying really wanted to ask, but she didn't know how to answer. And what she wanted to say to Mu Guiying was also about this matter, and her expression was a little unnatural.

Mu Guiying's vision was so sharp. As soon as he saw Wang Lanying's uncomfortableness, he understood what opinions the village owners might have put forward to embarrass Wang Lanying. Thinking about it, Mu Guiying took Wang Lanying back to the room she had just rested.

After the two sat down, Mu Guiying took the initiative to ask, "Sister Wang, you can say anything directly. Although 'Zhao'an' seems to let you brothers in the cottage change the origin of mountain thieves. But it also makes you lose some freedom and be bound by the court and discipline. From the perspective of some brothers, this may be unacceptable for a moment, which is normal. In those years, when I first arrived at the barracks at the border gate from Mu Kezhai, I was still a little unaccustomed to it.

Listening to Mu Guiying's heartfelt words, Wang Lanying said that it was false that she was not moved. For so many years, she has been thinking about discussing with the court to change the current situation of these cottages in Guangnan West Road. But there is no "bridge" among them, so Wang Lanying can only think about it.

Unexpectedly, Mu Guiying's appearance not only gave Wang Lanying's hope a chance to become a reality, but also Mu Guiying was also thinking about these mountain thieves. For everything Mu Guiying did, Wang Lanying treated her like her own sister in her heart.

"Sister Mu, with your words, my sister said at ease." Wang Lanying was also a very cheerful person. After getting Mu Guiying's comfort, she also let it go.

It is said that Shi Teng from Shijiazhai and Bao Yong from Sangshanzhai left one after another. The general meeting of the alliance is the official start. Because Shi Teng was forced to withdraw from the alliance by Bao Yong, Wang Lanying once again announced that the Kyushu Eleven Village Alliance will be renamed the Kyushu Jiuzhai Alliance from now on.

For the withdrawal of Shijiazhai and Sangshanzhai, other cottages are not satisfied at all, but several cottage owners are very happy. Of course, these cottages have been bullied by Bao Yong. However, everyone was a part of the alliance before, and it was not easy to tear their faces, so they had to endure it.

Now, Bao Yong has been cleared out of the alliance and is a happy person. However, the owners of these cottages thought that this party was to deal with these things. But just as they were about to leave, Wang Lanying suddenly said that the court was ready to 'invitate' their cottages.

When it comes to the matter of 'appreciation', some people are happy and some people are worried. I am happy with the old village owners who are old and don't want their descendants to live behind the reputation of 'mountain thieves'. What worries is those who are relatively young and worry that the court will settle accounts with them after they agree to 'zhao an'.

So, after Wang Lanying asked the owners to express their opinions. The whole hall is as noisy as a vegetable market. However, after Bao Yong's incident, the owners present here also restrained a little and discussed it for everyone's benefit. At that time, the atmosphere was very harmonious, which made Wang Lanying very satisfied and willing to listen carefully to what the cottages were worried about.

"After an afternoon of discussion, the owners of Jiuzhai in Kyushu put forward a lot of opinions. After I sort it out, these opinions are on this paper. As he spoke, Wang Lanying took out a few pieces of paper and handed them to Mu Guiying's hand.

Mu Guiying took a look, and there were really a lot of them. However, in general, what these village owners are worried about is not unreasonable. And most of their opinions are reasonable. Generally speaking, the owners of Jiuzhai in Kyushu all agree with the court's recruitment. However, they hope to become an army of their own, and their leader Wang Lanjun will command them. Moreover, when there was a war, they didn't want to separate their brothers from Jiuzhai. Because they are afraid that the court will separate them and deal with them.

Looking at the opinions listed by Wang Lanying in his hand, Mu Guiying's thoughts slowly unfolded. To be honest, Mu Guiying agrees with what is on this paper and wants to agree. But Mu Guiying was just a minister of the Song Dynasty, not Zhao Heng. She agreed, which does not mean that Zhao Heng also agreed. Moreover, in the matter of Zhao'an, Mu Guiying should not be too biased towards Wang Lanying and other village owners.

Because Zhao Heng's current attitude towards the Yang family is a little ambiguous, Mu Guiying can't figure out his thoughts. Therefore, Mu Guiying was afraid that Zhao Heng would be angry with the Yang family again because of this incident. As for Wang Lanying and other village owners, they are also likely to be implicated by Mu Guiying. However, it can't be too harsh, which is easy to arouse the suspicion of the village owners and let Feng Tong have the opportunity to take advantage of it.

Therefore, Mu Guiying had to think seriously and make 'ap security conditions' that would satisfy both sides. Mu Guiying thinks it makes sense to take the opinion of 'self-contained army'. Anyway, these people have also been mountain thieves for many years, and there can't be no ruffian in their bones. Presumably, except for Wang Lanying, the leader of the alliance, others may not be able to control them. Even Mu Guiying herself did not think it would convince them of her in a short time.

However, if this condition is presented to Zhao Heng, he will definitely not agree. Because there was a rebellion in the south in front of him, how could Zhao Heng let many mountain thieves become his own army? In case there is another country's rebellion, how can the country of the Song Dynasty be stabilized?

Pointing the paper in her hand, Mu Guiying looked at Wang Lanying and said, "Sister Wang, I don't think the emperor will necessarily agree on this. Therefore, I want to add a few words later. It is about the 'Jiuzhou Jiuzhai Alliance' becoming its own army, which can be agreed. However, the court will send the next official to exercise supervision. Moreover, this official has to be transferred and replaced by a new official at a certain time.

"The official in charge of supervision?" Wang Lanying felt very uncomfortable when she thought that there would be the supervision of the court around her. But after thinking about it again, Wang Lanying understood that these words added by Mu Guiying were the most appropriate. Only in this way will the brothers of Jiuzhai in Kyushu make the emperor of the Song Dynasty rest assured to form an army.

Looking at Mu Guiying, Wang Lanying sighed in her heart that although she was a little similar to her in personality. But there is still a big gap between the two. Taking the matter in front of her, Wang Lanying couldn't think of so much.

I admire Mu Guiying, and Wang Lanying has more and more fond feelings for her. In the following discussion, Wang Lanying also listened carefully to Mu Guiying's analysis and her supplement. It was not until the two had a 'cooing' sound in their stomachs that they looked at each other and smiled.

Knowing that Mu Guiying is not easy to be overworked, Wang Lanying is also very good as a sister, although she is an only daughter. Watching Mu Guiying lie down and rest, Wang Lanying left the room. And he came to the kitchen and ordered the chefs to make some food that is beneficial to pregnant people.

When Mu Guiying regained his spirit, Wang Lancai continued to discuss with her. Yang Zongfeng saw that he couldn't help, so he went hunting with Zhang Li. Because Yang Zongfeng remembers Yang Zongbao's instructions to him, Mu Guiying loves grilled pheasants.

I ignored Yang Zongfeng's trace, but Mu Guiying was dedicated to studying it. Finally, after a whole day, I sorted out all the matters about recruitment and security. Of course, these are only the outline drawn up by Mu Guiying. As for the details, it is better to be handled by the court.

While Mu Guiying was resting, Wang Lanying also took these matters and looked at them with the owners who had not left. After Wang Lanying's explanation, Mu Guiying, who all the village owners agreed, also set this 'recruitment letter'. At the same time, in their hearts, they deeply admire this woman with a big belly but such wisdom.

It was also because of this, in the subsequent confrontation with the southern country. The owners of Jiuzhai and their brothers tried their best to help the rebels suppress the rebellion, and finally won. Of course, this is a later story, and I won't talk about it here.

The next day, Mu Guiying was anxious and asked Yang Zongfeng to take the 'application letter' she had drafted and sent it to Liuzhou. After Yang Zongbao looked at it in person, he sent it back to Bianliang City as soon as possible and presented it to Zhao Heng, who would make the final determination.

Such, Mu Guiying and others waited patiently on Guangnan West Road. Zhao Heng in the palace of Bianliang City was very happy to see this 'letter of recruitment' and the explanatory letter presented by Yang Zongbao and Mu Guiying. After announcing this matter among the ministers, the important ministers such as Kou Zhun and the Eighth Prince also agreed that what Yang Zongbao and Mu Guiying thought was beneficial and harmless to the Song Dynasty.

Zhao Heng was also anxious about the war in the south, and most of the ministers agreed with it. Then he began to let everyone discuss the matters in the 'Recruitment Letter' and make a final determination. And at this moment, Ding Yu, who had endured for a long time, began to move. Seeing that the Yang family is going to make contributions again, how can Ding be willing?

When Kou Zhun and the Eighth Prince found Ding's intention, it was too late. In desperation, the two climbed into the gate of Tianbo Mansion again. And the day before the departure of the 'Minister of Zhao' in the court, a letter from Tianbo Mansion also flew to Liuzhou...
