Origin Chapter 782: Arrangement of troops
Seeing that Wu Zhongyuan's words were full of helplessness, Wang Xinran smiled and said, "You have been bitten by a snake for ten years and you are afraid of the rope."
"It's not like I was bitten by a snake all the time, this debit notebook has already tricked me twice..." Wu Zhongyuan stopped here, saying it seemed a bit arbitrary, the northwest ancient tomb and the son of the hidden wormhole Although the underground illusion transformed by Su Lingqi brought him a lot of trouble indirectly, it didn't look like a trap deliberately set up by the enemy.
After pondering, Wu Zhongyuan waved his hand and said, "Wait for this matter, I don't have time to do that right now, so don't rush to the arsenal, the medicine pill distribution ceremony has to be held the day after tomorrow, you can't be absent. "
"Alright." Wang Xinran nodded in agreement.
"Let's go, it's getting late, go back to the harem for dinner." Wu Zhongyuan walked towards the palace gate.
Wang Xinran followed Wu Zhongyuan out of the Zhongtian Hall. Jiang Dahua, who was in charge of security outside the Dan Hall, and others saw the two coming out, and they came forward to greet them.
Wu Zhongyuan told everyone how hard they had been, and then exchanged a few words with two elderly couples waiting outside the Dan Ding who borrowed Dan Ding, and then entered the Dan Dian to examine the cracks on the Dan Ding.
In modern terms, the air pressure inside the Hunyuan Ding is very high. If it is in a high pressure state for a long time, it is inevitable that the tripod will have cracks. As long as there is no air leakage, it can continue to be used.
After inspection, I felt that Dan Ding should be able to last until the remaining few materials were refined, and then left the Dan Palace and went to the harem with Wang Xinran.
When no one was there, Wang Xinran said, "Don't eat in the Central Palace, go to the East Courtyard. You haven't been there for a long time. Come and say hello."
Wu Zhongyuan didn't answer immediately, not because he didn't want to go, but not sure if Wang Xinran's words were sincere.
Wang Xinran guessed what Wu Zhongyuan was thinking, and said casually, "Wu Qing is also not easy, she is very virtuous and understands the rules. As long as I am in the palace, she will come over every day to say goodbye. It is a good person, you must not Ignore people."
"Aren't Wu Di and Jiang Nan bad?" Wu Zhongyuan asked with a smile.
"Both of these are also fine," Wang Xinran said, "Wu Di is very smart, but she never plays tricks on me, and Jiang Nan also respects me very much. None of the people you're looking for are arrogant and intriguing. I don't hate being poor."
When they reached the harem, Wang Xinran raised his finger and pointed to the east courtyard, motioning Wu Zhongyuan to go there, and then continued north to the middle palace.
Wu Zhongyuan was about to go to the East Courtyard when Wang Xinran turned around and came back, "Wu Qing's aura cultivation is too low, you have so many pills in your hand, might as well give her one."
"She's different from you, she doesn't like to participate in these things, it's a waste to give it." Wu Zhongyuan shook his head and said.
"Not necessarily, you didn't give her a chance to participate," Wang Xinran said, "Go ahead, I'll go to the post after dinner to see my dragon horse."
Wang Xinran turned around and left after speaking. Wu Zhongyuan turned and went to the East Courtyard. On the way to the East Courtyard, he considered what Wang Xinran had said before. Wang Xinran's words were not unreasonable. She participated in the war, and at least she could protect herself in the event of an accident.
The last time he went to modern times, he possessed a pug dog. After he came back, his soul returned to his body. This pug dog has been adopted by Wu Qing. It started when he was in Daze. Bear, Wu Zhongyuan just entered the door of the east courtyard, and the pug greeted him with its tail wagging.
If conditions permit, you still have to keep a dog. If there is a dog, there will be fireworks. Not only can it prevent theft, but it also feels good to be greeted when you return home.
There is no gong hanging at the entrance of the East Courtyard. If there is no gong, it means that Wu Qing is inconvenient to pick up the driver, and Wu Zhongyuan does not feel lost. After being promoted to Taiyuan, his desire has not disappeared, but his self-control ability is getting stronger and stronger. There will be no more fiery, irritable and anxious situations.
Wu Qing was having dinner when she heard the barking of the pug. The maid opened the door to check what was going on. At the same time as the maid opened the door, Wu Qing saw Wu Zhongyuan and hurriedly put down the dishes and chopsticks to greet him.
She didn't see Wu Zhongyuan very often. When she saw Wu Zhongyuan coming, she was pleasantly surprised, and squatted down and saluted with a little shyness.
Wu Zhongyuan helped Wu Qing and took her hand into the main room. There were dishes on the table. In addition to rice porridge, there were also a plate of sunflower vegetables and a plate of soy beans. It was very simple, and there was no meat.
There were very few varieties of vegetables in ancient times. The common ones were only sunflower, radish, scallion, onion, and leek. Sunflower is not a modern okra, but a green leafy plant, which is somewhat similar to spinach. When there was no Chinese cabbage, sunflower was the main vegetable.
Huo is the leaf of a bean plant, and Huodou is a bean, which can be pickled and served with rice.
Scallions are a bit like modern wild garlic, and honestly not very tasty.
Scallions and leeks are modern onions and leeks, but the taste is different from modern scallions and leeks. They are very spicy and can only be eaten raw and heartburned.
Wu Zhongyuan is here, and he must add more dishes. Wu Zhongyuan ordered it himself. At this time, there is already tofu, but it is not the white and tender tofu of later generations, but between bean paste and tofu, more like fermented bean curd , not regular small pieces, but a jar, dig a spoonful when you want to eat.
Wu Zhongyuan asked for tofu, venison and a plate of purple sweet potatoes. Ancient people were used to drinking porridge. Wu Zhongyuan kept the eating habits of modern northerners. He liked dry food and asked for scones.
Although Wu Qing is virtuous and kind, she is not the kind of weak and sick little woman in later generations. When the meal is delivered, Wu Zhongyuan asks her to eat with her, and she eats it, neither chewing slowly nor swallowing it. Usually, very comfortable.
Wu Zhongyuan asked about Wu Xuan's situation during the meal. Wu Xuan is Wu Qin's son and his brother-in-law. This little thing likes foxes and tigers very much. According to Wu Qing, Wu Xuan was in the school with Jiang Dahua's son. He is very familiar, and he is not too domineering, but he must be arrogant.
Wu Zhongyuan is not disgusted by this, at least not very disgusted. The relatives of the royal family are the relatives of the royal family. They cannot act recklessly, but there is no need to be approachable.
It is now the end of autumn, and the weather is getting colder. Wu Zhongyuan rewarded Wu Qing with some leather and cloth, and two thousand shells. In fact, the concubines in the harem had basic support, and Wu Zhongyuan rewarded them as extras. , Wu Qing can give it to relatives and friends, and can also give it to the servants.
Wu Qing was a little apprehensive about Wu Zhongyuan's reward, and Wu Zhongyuan didn't hide it. He only said that he had been busy with government affairs recently and left her out, and he felt a lot of guilt in his heart.
Wu Qing said that he was mediocre and incompetent, which only added to the burden and should not share the worries of the king.
Wu Zhongyuan remembered Wang Xinran's previous words, so he rewarded Wu Qing with a Taixuan elixir and appointed her to supervise the school and Fushouyuan.
This errand may seem simple, but it is actually very trivial, because the elderly and children are the most difficult to manage, especially these elderly and children are the relatives of the lords of the Great Wall City.
When I came here, it was the time of the watch. After eating and drinking a cup of tea, I left before the second watch. After a while, I came back. He went to Xinyue Island and came back with some fruits. At that time, supplies were very scarce, and Xinyue Island had fresh fruits all year round. After the monkey died, Xinyuehu ate very little. He would occasionally pick some to give away, and it would be more convenient to come and go after being able to teleport.
Leaving some fruit for Wu Qing, Wu Zhongyuan went to the Central Palace again, sent some to Wang Xinran, and finally took the rest to the Xiangfu.
In the daytime, his conversation with the old blind man was interrupted by Wang Xinran. He came here to continue discussing government affairs with the old blind man. In addition to the Golden Bear Wizard, the Golden Bull Warriors and Golden Crow Warriors needed three hundred purple spirits Dan, he still has a lot of purple qi elixir left in his hand. What he discussed with the old blind man this time was how to distribute the remaining purple qi elixir to the seventy-one walled cities under his jurisdiction.
The seventy-one walled cities need to be discussed one by one, and all aspects must be weighed, which is extremely cumbersome.
The old blind man first proposed to add an auxiliary city to the west of Xiongcheng. The so-called auxiliary city, as the name suggests, is the subsidiary city of Xiong. Youxiong was originally the capital of the bear clan. , the residences of some people and some less important functional departments, including the middle and lower-level officials of various ministries can be transferred to the auxiliary city.
In the vacated space, three barracks will be built, which are located in the south, west, and east of the palace. They can guard the imperial city in peacetime, assemble quickly in wartime, or go to the battlefield in person, or by Wu Zhongyuan cast a thousand miles in a flash, teleporting troops.
Wu Zhongyuan agreed with the old blind man's suggestion, and the name of the auxiliary city was directly designated as Dasuke, and Wu Ji, the assistant of the Ministry of Punishment, was also the city lord.
As a result, the number of cities for the Bear Clan has been expanded to 18, with 24 for the Bird Clan, and 30 for the Ox Clan, for a total of 72 cities.
In addition to the seventy-two Yuancheng, we have to add the Merman clan, the Yi clan in Qingdu, the werewolf clan in Gaozhan, and the Yinma River in the black widow. These ministries have already joined the Central Plains. It must also be taken into account when distributing the medicinal herbs, otherwise it will appear favoritism over the other.
Governing a country is the most labor-intensive. These seventy-two walled cities must be equipped with a main and deputy city lord. Especially when the war is coming, the deputy city lord is particularly important. If the city lord dies in the battle, the deputy city lord can also be Substitute.
Because the three clans were originally hostile to each other and had deep grievances, although the contradictions eased a lot after he ascended the throne, there are still more or less old grudges between the major city lords. Before that, a large number of city lords died in battle. In many cities, the two princes temporarily appointed the city's warriors to serve as substitutes. Since they have not been formally appointed by him, these people can be adjusted before the official appointment. At this time, Wu Zhongyuan and the old blind man discussed this matter. It is difficult to get the three clan city lords to be of one heart and one mind within a time, but at least they can't be made to be in the same situation, and they can't be saved at a critical juncture.
The focus of the discussion between the two is on the distribution of the Ziqi Lingdan and the appointment of the city lord. In principle, the opinions of the two princes Li Tai and Jiang Zhen are respected. , because the personnel arrangement made by the two at this time is to arrange troops for the upcoming six-path melee.
In addition, the two princes, the Yi people, the sharks, the wolves, and the Yinmahe, must also give a certain amount of elixir to the people below. These people are special and must be given They have a certain degree of autonomy.
It has been talked about that the tune was roughly set at the fourth watch. Wu Zhongyuan got up to leave, and the old blind man sent him out in person.
"I'm going out, but I won't be able to make it back in the morning, so you will discuss the affairs on your behalf." Wu Zhongyuan said.
The old blind man nodded in agreement, without asking where he was going.
The old blind man would be wise not to ask, because even if he asked, Wu Zhongyuan would not tell him the truth. The old blind man has always tended to use soldiers against the orcs, and he wanted to go to the orc altar and fight with the beastmaster. frontal contact.
At this time, the Beastmaster should have recovered his sanity. Now, we can listen to his views on current affairs, as well as his attitude towards gods, ghosts, demons and humans...
