Chapter 754 Su Yunyan was detained
"I am only here to help you with some government affairs temporarily. I will definitely not stay in Yunzhou for long, nor will I do anything more. Don't think too much!"
Zhuge Yu put on a look of sternness and seeing that Gu Nanxi was only shocked and had no intention of speaking, she took the initiative to pick up the official business on Wang Buxi's desk and handled it to the best of her ability.
Wang Buxi was shocked!
Is this still the stubborn Mr. Zhuge?
It's just gossip. What difference does it make if you know it one day earlier or one day later?
Wang was unhappy and didn't understand, and was deeply shocked, so he could only express his respect and blessings.
Immediately, a strong sense of crisis arose in Wang Buxi's heart.
At first, it took Zhuge Yu a quarter of an hour to process a document, but after two or three documents, Zhuge Yu adapted to the style and format of Yunzhou documents, and his processing speed soared.
In just half a quarter of an hour, one-fifth of the unprocessed documents on Wang Buxi's desk had been processed.
Wang Buxi was so shocked that he couldn't help but question secretly, could Zhuge Yu have written it randomly?
He calmly took out a document that Zhuge had handled, flipped through it, and was completely unable to conceal his inner shock.
It was handled perfectly! I couldn't have done it better.
What a scary man!
I’m afraid I’ll lose my position as the most capable official under Duke Yun!
Wang Buxi was not sour and with a hint of dissatisfaction, he buried his head in reviewing documents.
The two of them seemed to be competing, or rather, it was a one-sided competition on Wang Buxi's part.
The paperwork was processed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Gu Nanxi, who was watching the whole process, opened his mouth slightly, filled with emotion.
Is this the aura of the King of Rolls?
Once it's rolled up, it's so scary.
Time passed minute by minute, and by noon, all the official business had been completed!
Done!
Gu Nanxi's eyes were moist and she wanted to hug Zhuge Yu and cry bitterly.
God knows how long it has been since she last had a nap.
Every day when I open my eyes, I am busy with official business. When I close my eyes, I am busy with official business. Even when I dream, I am busy with official business.
How terrible is such a life for someone who is determined to lie down and live a lazy life?
If it weren't for the sense of responsibility and lofty ambitions in his heart, Gu Nanxi would have quit long ago.
It was as if there was a sophisticated computer in Zhuge Yu's brain. Through several documents he had processed and clues, he had already determined that the incident must have occurred in Western Xia.
"Are you planning to go to war with Xixia?"
The documents Zhuge Yu came into contact with were from Wang Buxi, which did not contain any content about mobilizing troops. Most of them were about spring plowing arrangements and official transfers.
Gu Nanxi rubbed her sore wrist and took the two of them to the lobby next door for dinner: "Let's eat something first, and then we'll talk in detail."
Zhuge Yu frowned, he didn't have the habit of three meals a day, usually he got up early and had a hearty breakfast, had some fruit snacks at noon, and had dinner at three or four in the afternoon. After the sun went down, he would not eat anything but drink warm water.
This is the only way to allow the internal organs time to recuperate and recuperate, which is in line with the principles of health preservation.
However, since Duke Yun had already invited him, Zhuge Yu pursed his lips and followed.
The lunch was not as luxurious as Zhuge Yu had guessed. There was only one dish of golden chicken, one plate of cold wild vegetables, and one plate of steamed duck.
The staple food is Gulachi, which is made by mixing egg white, bean powder and yogurt into powder, spreading the paste into small cakes, putting a layer of sugar filling on the cakes, and then covering it with a pancake, and then putting rifling lines on it, and finally pouring honey syrup on it.
The sugar filling is a mixture of crushed pine nuts, walnuts and sugar.
Honey syrup is made from oil and honey.
Gulachi tastes very sweet. Gu Nanxi only ate one and didn't eat any more.
On the contrary, Wang Buxi and Zhuge Yu liked it very much, and they ate all the remaining ones.
After the meal, have a pot of tea to relieve the greasiness on your tongue.
Gu Nanxi then spoke to satisfy Zhuge Yu's gossip: "At present, I don't plan to go to war with Xixia. According to the latest news, Ma Nantian and Yunyan, who we sent to Xixia, were detained by Li Jiqian, the leader of Xixia."
"Huh? What?!" Zhuge Yu's eyes widened, "What did they do?"
Su Yunyan is not an ordinary person. She is the only daughter of Duke Yun and once led the defense of Yunzhou City.
Why did Li Jiqian detain her given her sensitive identity?
Zhuge Yu sensed something was wrong and put down his tea bowl: "Li Jiqian is the powerful ruler of Xixia. He should know very well what it means to detain Su Yunyan."
Gu Nanxi nodded: "Yes, I think so too. We haven't received any information about what Yunyan did in Xixia, so we can't act rashly. Li Jiqian hasn't sent anyone over either."
There is no explanation or wrangling.
It was as if they didn't know Su Yunyan's identity.
This is extremely abnormal and is definitely not the normal communication attitude between the two countries.
Gu Nanxi's eyes were deep and she unconsciously turned the silver bracelet on her wrist.
This bracelet was made by Su Yunyan herself, with ten thousand longevity characters engraved on the inner wall, symbolizing eternal life.
This is the New Year gift that Su Yunyan gave to Gu Nanxi.
After receiving this gift, Gu Nanxi took off the jade double dragon bracelet she was wearing and replaced it with a longevity silver bracelet.
Wang Buxi glanced at Zhuge Yu imperceptibly and said, "The imperial envoy Wang Anshi sent to Yongzhou also sent a secret letter saying that he found out that the Xie family had dealings with Xixia. Whether it was collusion or pure business dealings, it is unknown."
Zhuge Yu's eyebrows jumped, realizing that something was wrong. Just as he was about to open his mouth to stop Wang Buxi, he heard Wang Buxi quickly speaking out the plan.
"Whether there was collusion or not, the Xie family is doomed. We originally wanted to cut the Gordian knot, but after the Xixia incident, we decided to kill the chicken to scare the monkey."
The kind of killing that is done with great fanfare and for the whole world to see!
Yongzhou is not too far from Xixia. If possible, Wang Buxi would like to drag the Xie family to the border and kill them!
This was a deterrent to the other states of Youyun, and even more so to Western Xia.
Zhuge Yu looked like he had no desire to live...
This Lord Wang must have done this on purpose, right?!
He blurted out such an important decision so lightly.
Now that I know about this, how can I leave Yunzhou before the matter in Yongzhou is completely resolved?
Zhuge Yu looked at Wang Buxi with resentment, and said sarcastically: "Lord Wang is really smart and clever, and he is loyal to Duke Yun."
Wang Buxi pretended not to understand and thought the other party was praising him.
Gu Nanxi realized it later and shouted in her heart, blatantly giving Wang Buxi a look of appreciation, well done!
Gu Nanxi was like a wolf grandmother who was holding candy to lure children: "This is a big event, and we urgently need someone to take charge of the situation. But the spring farming task in Yunzhou is arduous and cannot be done without people. I really can't do it in two places, Mr. Zhuge, are you willing to help me?"
Zhuge Yu lowered his eyes with disinterest.
Gu Nanxi: "With a feather fan and a blue silk scarf, everything turned to ashes and smoke between the masts and oars."
Just imagine, two armies are facing each other, and one man is wearing a silk scarf on his head, holding a feather fan in his hand, and wearing a crane cloak, looking like a fairy.
Who did you think of?!
I just want to ask you if you are moved?
With a feather fan and a blue silk scarf, everything was reduced to ashes and smoke among the masts and oars.
This sentence was used by Su Shi to describe Zhou Yu.
But in Romance of the Three Kingdoms, the image of Zhuge Liang with a feather fan and a green turban is so prominent that when this word is mentioned, everyone thinks of Zhuge Liang.
The reference here is Zhuge Liang.
