Chapter 284 Extra 1
(My dear children, Xue Qianqian was changed to Xue Chuxuan, because Xue Qianqian was the name of a heroine I liked in a book, so when I was naming her, this was the first name that came to my mind)
"Uncle, Xuan'er is waiting for you to come back and continue teaching me martial arts!"
General Lu was very reluctant to part with his nephew, granddaughter and grandson. He had only lived with them for a year and now he had to leave temporarily!
"You two little ones, be good and obedient, your uncle will be back soon"
Shen Changan: “Uncle, you must come back safely this time!”
General Lu: "Don't worry. We have defeated two great powers that could stand shoulder to shoulder with Fenglin. This time, it's just three small countries. Do they really think they can win by joining forces?"
"This time, Yuexi and I will split into two groups, each with 50,000 soldiers. I will be responsible for the frontal attack, while Yuexi will lead the troops to assault their border. As long as the border is breached, they will not be able to escape!"
Hearing this, Xu Zhiyi reminded him, "Uncle, this time you should leave a trusted person who can stand on his own to guard the border. This time it's too strange. Obviously, the two big countries have surrendered, so why did these three small countries suddenly join forces?"
"I'm afraid that these three small countries were provoked by someone, and someone signed the surrender agreement on the surface, but secretly did something bad, hoping to reap the benefits!"
When General Lu heard what Xu Zhiyi said, he immediately understood that he should take precautions. After a year of getting along, he was extremely satisfied with Xu Zhiyi, his nephew's wife. She was not an ordinary peasant woman at all.
Her ideas were unprecedented. At least in his decades of life, he had never seen a woman as insightful as Xu Zhiyi. Nothing was difficult for her.
General Lu: "Zhiyi, you are right. I am afraid that if we transfer troops to other countries, the two countries that originally signed the peace treaty will suddenly tear up the treaty."
"Moreover, I heard that the hostages sent by the two countries were not favored by their father. It seems that they may not care about the safety of the two royal hostages."
Xu Zhiyi suddenly remembered that he had looked at the map because he was curious about the border. He thought that most of the terrain there was stone canyons, and suddenly he had an idea:
"Uncle, you can arrange for people to set up ambushes and traps on all the necessary roads along the border. If those two countries don't have the intention we want, then we will just waste some effort. If they do, they will seek their own death!"
General Lu was immediately interested when he heard this: "Oh, how do you do it? I asked people to climb up the mountain and roll rocks down, which could injure a lot of people, but most of them managed to avoid it!"
Xu Zhiyi: "Uncle, choose a checkpoint and set up a pit trap. There will be traps ahead of them, and our people will guard the back. Prepare more stones from the mountain, as well as some fire bows and arrows, and throw more piles of herbs to their side."
"We need to find a way to make a poison or a drug that can only be used when it is ignited. When the fire starts, the smoke will be huge and they will absorb some of the drug. They will lose their way or be poisoned. Anyway, they can't escape!"
General Lu was pleasantly surprised when he heard what Xu Zhiyi said:
"Hey, Zhiyi, have you read military books? How come you are also good at being a military advisor? Haha, now that you've reminded me, I know what to do. You are an expert in adding medicine. With Fenglin Country's number one medical saint here, nothing can stop you!"
Xu Zhiyi: "Then uncle, you can try my nonsense method. I don't really understand it either, so I can only give a rough idea!"
General Lu: "You're probably enough! Okay, then wait for me to come back with good news!"
Shen Changan: “Uncle, we are waiting for you to return home!”
Hearing this, General Lu patted Shen Changan on the shoulder and said, “Don’t worry, don’t make a fuss this time. You bravely go to the battlefield alone. This time, the emperor has made it clear that you are not allowed to go.”
Last time, his uncle was scared to death. This guy, who didn't know anything, just picked up a machete and rushed to the battlefield to kill the enemies fiercely. Later, because of his ruthlessness, the enemy was temporarily repelled, giving everyone time to catch their breath and make new plans.
So when the emperor found out, he appointed him as an officer of moderate rank.
"Okay, let's go back!"
Seeing their uncle General Lu riding away on his horse, everyone turned back reluctantly.
Passing by South Street, Xu Zhiyi wanted to stop by Yanyi Pavilion, so she asked Shen Changan and Shen Wuyou to do other things, and she walked into Yanyi Pavilion with her two children.
"Aunt Lou!"
Lou Qianqian was holding a few pieces of cloth and preparing to go upstairs. When she heard Xue Chuxuan's call, she immediately put the cloth on the table beside her, then went over and pinched Xue Chuxuan's cute little face: "Oh, little Chuxuan, I miss you so much!"
Then he looked at Xue Hongle, who was just over one year old and was in Xu Zhiyi's arms, reached out to hug him, and gave him a kiss on the face: "Wow, our little Hongle is getting cuter and cuter!"
Xu Zhiyi: "Isn't it cute? So Qianqian, do you want to have a baby to keep you company?"
Mo Lin pursued Qianqian relentlessly for more than three years before he finally won her heart. Qianqian agreed to let him marry into her family, and now they have been married for a year.
Lou Qianqian: "Ahem, almost there!"
Xu Zhiyi: “Yes?”
Lou Qianqian nodded shyly.
Xu Zhiyi: "Hehe, that's great. Aunt Luo envies my mother every day, and now she's going to be a grandmother too!"
"Sister Zhiyi!"
"Xiaohe, you are pregnant now, don't run so fast! Be careful!" Xu Zhiyi looked at Wang Xiaohe who was running over and quickly reminded her.
Wang Xiaohe also married Lin Qi from the Lin clan a year ago through the matchmaking of Aunt Hu. Lin Qi is three years older than Xiaohe. The two families live only one household apart, so it seems as if she had never been married.
Wang Xiaohe: "Hey, Sister Zhiyi, except for my belly, I'm not fat anywhere else, I'm still very flexible! I know my limits."
Xu Zhiyi: "You, you're pregnant, and you're still so jumping around!"
Wang Xiaohe: "Sister Zhiyi, the red... potatoes you asked everyone to plant were all planted yesterday in the village! Is it the same as the yam? Why don't they look alike, but have the same name?"
Xu Zhiyi: "I don't know either. I just found it by chance in the mountains. It looks like sweet potato when dug out. It should be plantable in the same way."
Lou Qianqian: "Sister Zhiyi, you are not the Great Minister of Agriculture in our hearts, you are the God in our hearts"
Xu Zhiyi: "No, I'm not that noble and selfless. I'm also working on the salary of the country!"
Lou Qianqian and Wang Xiaohe: "We don't care, this is what we think in our hearts anyway!"
"You two are truly my number one fans!"
In fact, it was a new discovery she made in the space. It seemed that after she moved the yam out of the space, sweet potatoes appeared unexpectedly. So she followed the old method, first moving them out to the mountains, then asking people to dig them up, and then leaving them to plant in the fields.
Anyway, they had seen it with their own eyes and dug it themselves, so there was no way they could suspect her. They were just grateful to her for discovering a new edible species for everyone, which made her, the Minister of Agriculture, even more admired and appreciated by the people of Fenglin State.
