Chapter 842 There is finally happiness in the world
Five days later.
Dahui, on the banks of the Chihe River.
In the blink of an eye, five days had passed since Wei Changtian left Yongding City, and he led 200,000 Daqian surrendered soldiers westward for 1,500 miles.
After crossing this red river and continuing westward for about three days, you will reach the border of Daqian.
This also means that Wei Changtian still has three days left to launch his plan to "destroy Daqian".
Looking back from now, not a lot has happened in the past five days.
Or maybe there was nothing unusual about what happened.
Gongsun Yan completed his somewhat hasty and simple coronation ceremony and officially changed the country's name to "Chu".
From then on, there was no more Dahui in the world, only the Great Chu Dynasty.
In order to help him stabilize his regime, the remaining 100,000 surrendered Hui soldiers from Xinfeng were finally able to return to their homeland, and it is estimated that they will reach Yongding in another seven or eight days.
In exchange, Da Chu will pay war reparations of 20 million, 30 million, and 50 million taels of silver to Xinfeng, Daning, and Dashu respectively, totaling 10 million taels of silver.
Such a huge compensation will undoubtedly make the people of Dahui, no, Dachu live a hard life for a long time.
But the good thing is that they finally don't have to suffer the calamity of war anymore.
As long as there is no war, the "productivity" of the world of cultivation is sufficient to enable the people to at least "survive" under any circumstances.
As for whether they are happy or not on this basis, that has nothing to do with Wei Changtian.
This is basically the situation in Dahui.
There is no news from Chu Xianping either.
Therefore, Wei Changtian can now devote all his energy to overthrowing the Daqian regime.
Of course, after the Great Hui Kingdom was destroyed, the Great Qian Emperor Jing Guoqing had actually anticipated that he would become Wei Changtian's next target.
In order to prevent himself from repeating Yan Huanwen's mistakes, he started preparing early.
In the past two days, he sent three secret letters to Wei Changtian in succession, each one more "polite" than the last, clearly demonstrating his attitude of "anything can be discussed."
However, Wei Changtian turned a deaf ear to this and has not given Jing Guoqing any reply so far.
There is no doubt that Wei Changtian will definitely not make peace with Jing Guoqing.
After all, since he had said that he would destroy the two countries of Qian and Hui within a year, he must do it.
The only thing is that the situation in Daqian is much more difficult than that in Dahui.
Dahui's national strength was originally weak, and Lu Hongji died in the Battle of Xinfeng, so Wei Changtian only needed to add a little fuel to the fire to easily achieve his goal.
But it is not so easy to destroy Daqian.
Although 500,000 people died in the battle of Xinfeng, Daqian's foundation was still there, and such a loss did not damage its foundation.
What’s more important is that Jing Guoqing is still alive and well.
To destroy such a country would undoubtedly require more complex planning, greater power, and longer time.
In short, it is very difficult.
However, Wei Changtian did not seem to be worried about this. He just told Yang Liushi and Li Zimu the story of "The Battle of the Seven Kingdoms" in the car all day long.
Five days later, he had already talked about the part where the Qin general Wang Ben flooded the Wei city of Daliang and Qin conquered Wei.
The story was quite interesting, and Yang Liushi and Li Zimu were fascinated by it.
But his "relaxed and contented" look made Duan Fangping and the other three feel a little "uneasy". "Master! We have been following you for half a month! But we still haven't had a chance to show off our skills!"
At noon, while the army was resting, Duan Fangping, as a "representative", found Wei Changtian who was having a meal and said sincerely:
"We are willing to rush to the capital of Daqian first to gather some information about the city for you! I hope you will agree!"
"oh?"
With a hint of approval on his face, Wei Changtian did not reject Duan Fangping this time, but agreed to the latter's request straightforwardly.
"Okay! Then I'll have to trouble the four seniors!"
"But besides gathering intelligence, you can also do a few other things."
He stood up and pulled Duan Fangping away.
The two talked for a while, and then Wei Changtian quickly came back to continue eating.
"Husband."
Yang Liushi, who was standing by, glanced at Duan Fangping who was leaving in a hurry. She did not ask what Wei Changtian had said to him, but just smiled and said:
"Zi Mu just said that the food in the army is not very tasty. She will come to cook for us next time."
"Um?"
Wei Changtian was stunned, turned his head to look at Li Zimu, and asked in confusion: "When did you learn to cook?"
"I"
Li Zimu blushed, seeming a little embarrassed by Wei Changtian's question.
Seeing this, Yang Liushi quickly answered for her:
"Oh, my husband, have you forgotten that Zimu learned cooking from Miss Qin for a few days before this?"
"Oh yes, Qin He's cooking skills are indeed pretty good."
Wei Changtian nodded and said to Li Zimu: "Then you can try it tonight."
"yes"
Li Zimu responded softly, and then added a little nervously: "Sir, I have only learned for a few days, I think I can't compare with Miss Qin."
"It's okay. Anyway, it's better than being a cook in the army."
Wei Changtian said casually, then picked up the bowl and continued eating.
Perhaps because everyone happened to mention Qin He, Yang Liushi felt a little emotional and muttered to herself.
"I don't know how Miss Qin and Master Chu are doing now."
“They should be married.”
Dahui, Guyang County, Pingyun County.
"Gurgle"
Just as Wei Changtian and his group were having dinner by the Chi River, a carriage stopped in front of a small courtyard gate.
"Husband! Don't forget the box in the car!"
Qin He, wearing a green long dress, jumped off the carriage, pushed open the gate with a happy face, her eyes full of curiosity and joy.
Chu An also had a smile on his face as he slowly moved the luggage from the car into the yard one by one.
That's right, after Wei Changtian left, they decided to sell Zhuwu, leave Yongding City, and start a new life in a small place where no one knew them.
And this small courtyard in Pingyun County will be their future home.
The reasons why you should give up everything and start over may be complicated.
But judging from their expressions now, this is undoubtedly the right choice. "Ah, husband, I haven't gone to worship Buddha today!"
Suddenly, Qin He, who was walking around in the yard, seemed to remember something. He put some change in his pocket and ran out of the yard in a hurry.
"I'll go first! Put your things in order! If you don't know where to put them, wait until I come back!"
"Oh, I don't know if there are any larger temples in Pingyun County. I need to ask someone."
“.”
After shouting at Chu An, Qin He quickly left muttering to herself.
Chu An didn't stop her. He just smiled and shook his head and continued to move the luggage into the house.
The two of them didn't have much luggage, and most of it was Qin He's things.
Therefore, it didn't take Chu An long to put all the parcels and boxes of varying sizes in order.
He dusted himself off, pushed the door open and walked to the front yard, sat on the stone steps for a while, then took out a piece of rice paper from his arms.
This was left in the front hall of Zhuwu after Wei Changtian left.
A silver note for one thousand taels, and a letter written in vernacular Chinese, the content of which was so short that it could hardly be called a "letter".
【This is the money for buying the candle dragon. 】
[Ling, I wish you two a long and happy marriage. ]
“.”
After reading the two lines of small words again, Chu An smiled, folded the rice paper carefully, and put it back to his chest.
At the same time, Qin He on the other side finally found the only small temple in Pingyun County.
“Ding Dong~”
She threw a few copper coins into the merit box, then knelt on the cushion with her skirt pulled up, and kowtowed three times earnestly to the Buddha statue in front of her.
Compared with the solemn and dignified Hong'an Temple in Yongding City, this small temple is obviously not as popular. Not only is the temple a bit simple, but even the Buddha statues are several sizes smaller.
However, Qin He was still extremely pious, and was still praying for the same things as before.
"May the Buddha bless Chu An, no, may my husband have a peaceful life."
"May the Buddha bless Master Wei with a safe life."
“May Buddha bless you.”
“.”
The clear sound of wooden fish was heard incessantly, the Buddha statue was golden, and it seemed that Buddha's light was falling on Qin He.
However, if you look closely, it is not difficult to tell that this is not some Buddhist vision, but just the most ordinary, golden sunlight.
