Chapter 673 4 Years of Spring Rain

Chapter 673 14 Years of Spring Rain

When the fireworks are rising in the night sky, the sound of zither, pipa and silk bamboo also resounds in this night.

Fanlou, the nightless Shangyuan Festival.The flowing light and the sound of music accompanied by the accumulation of snow on the side of the eaves courtyard, exaggerated the excitement of the night, and the singing of poems embellished it.

Some people are singing Shangyuan words from a few years ago.

"The east wind blows thousands of flowers at night, and the stars fall like rain... BMW carved cars are fragrant all over the road..."

It is Ning Liheng's "Sapphire Case".

The singing sound came from the courtyard next door. Shishi was kneeling and sitting at the table, holding on to the teapot, pouring out hot tea generously.

"Young master came today just in time. Song Xibian, master Song personally made Mingqian, and I only have this last point..."

On the opposite side of her was a man in Chinese clothes with a handsome appearance and a steady temperament.

"Master Song's tea is hard to come by, but it is truly priceless if the master brews it himself... yes." He took a sip from the teacup, frowned slightly, and looked at Master Li, "...the master has been under the city recently The pain of feeling is all in the tea."

"Is the tea too bitter?" Shi Shi frowned and smiled, taking a sip by himself.

"The taste of the tea is clear, which is why the complicated mood inside is also clear." The man in the Chinese dress smiled, "Since I first met my teacher five years ago, the taste of this tea has been different every year. Elder Chanyun said Shishi has a deep Buddha nature. According to Chen, it is also because Shishi can observe the world with himself, and turn what he sees and hears into himself, and then turn it into music, tea ceremony and other things. This tea is not bitter, just The content contained in it is thick and complex, and there is a heart of compassion for the world."

Shi Shi looked at him, his eyes shifted, shining brightly, but then he smiled slightly: "Isn't it a lie?"

"From the bottom of my heart, no lies."

"People in the world often say that brother Jianyun can judge people's hearts with the tea ceremony, but today he only praises me. Although the master is happy in his heart, deep down, he can't help but discount brother Jianyun's evaluation." She said, again With a smile, Qiong's nose wrinkled slightly, quite cute.

Chen Jianyun laughed on the opposite side: "The world is just talking nonsense. Mr. Chen is just a person who loves tea. It is the truth that the teacher discounts more. However, the feelings in today's tea are absolutely true. Mr. Chen dares to fight A five-dollar bet."

The two had known each other for a long time, and they made a few jokes, and the scene was quite harmonious.This Chen Jianyun is a son of a well-known family in the capital. There are several high officials in the family. His second uncle, Chen Fangzhong, once served as Minister of the Ministry of War and a political advisor. He is outstanding in tea ceremony, Ci, calligraphy and painting.

It is also because of this that he can occupy a place in Li Shishi's room on festivals like Yuanxi.After all, there are many dignitaries in the capital, and there are countless banquets during festivals, and the countless top oirans are not idle.The age difference between Chen Jianyun and Shi Shi is not too big, powerful middle-aged and elderly officials will not compete with him due to their status, and other dudes often cannot compete with him.

The night was getting dark, and the meeting with Chen Jianyun was also the last period of the night.The two chatted for a while, and Chen Jianyun tasted the tea ceremony: "It's an old saying, Master is not young, if you don't get married and continue to make this kind of tea, after a while, I'm afraid I will really ask Master Chanyun for the way to become a monk. "

Shishi hesitated for a moment: "If it really happens, it is God's will."

"In life, love between a man and a woman is not everything, but it also has its profound meaning. Shishi is here, so you don't have to deliberately ask for it, so why bother to hide? If you are in love, the next day next year, Shishi's tea Do you know if there will be another wonderful show?"

"Brother Jianyun..."

"Teacher, please listen to me." Chen Jianyun looked directly at her and said calmly, "In the capital, there are not many who can marry you, and there are not many who can treat you well after marrying you." A lot. Chen does not enter the officialdom and is less involved in the world, but in terms of family background, after marrying you, no one else will come to pester you. Although Chen has a concubine in his family, it is only a woman from a small family. , and will never cause you to be bullied. The most important thing is that you and I have the same heart and mind. From now on, you can play the piano and drink tea in harmony, and you can live happily in this life."

Shishi lowered his eyes.After a while, Chen Jianyun added: "I have already said that I love Shishi in my heart, so there is no need to say it now. I know that Shishi has a high heart and has his own ideas, but what Chen said is also from the bottom of my heart. The most important thing is that in Chen's heart, he loves Shishi very much, whether you agree or consider it, this feeling will not change."

"I know that Brother Jianyun is Chen Ken's gentleman." Shishi said softly, "It's just that Brother Jianyun and Chen Ken treated me, and Shishi didn't hide it. Over the years, Shishi often went out to travel and see what happened around him. The mind became more and more complicated, and it was difficult to rest in peace. Brother Chen mentioned this matter two years ago, and Shi Shi said that he was pure and clear. Now, this kind of mood has become more and more difficult to get rid of. In the past two years, many things have made Shi Shi feel uneasy. And get married, start a family with a man, put yourself in the narrow world, no longer look at these complicated worlds, but there is no sense of relief that is invisible to the eyes. The Buddha said that all living beings are suffering, but... I am familiar with Buddhist scriptures, But it’s hard to get rid of it.”

"This is the Buddha nature." Chen Jianyun sighed, picked up the teapot, and poured a cup of tea for her, "But in the final analysis, even if you see the things in this world, they are not something you can change. I am I know that I can’t change it, so I put my love on calligraphy, painting, poetry, tea ceremony, no matter how difficult the world is, there is always a way to be alone.”

"I know that Brother Jianyun is not alone." The teacher smiled, "This time when the Jurchen came, Brother Jianyun also led the guards at home and went to the city wall. When I learned that Brother Jianyun was still safe, I very happy."

"When the matter is at hand, there is always a time when I can't avoid it. I am lucky to survive, it is really the credit of the guards at home, and it has nothing to do with me."

"Actually, what brother Jianyun said, Shi Shi has already thought about it." She smiled and was silent for a while, "Shi Shi, with her status, was the daughter of a criminal in her early years. , the journey is smooth, but in the end it is just praise from others. Sometimes I feel that I can do many things, but I just borrow the tiger skin of others. When I am old and fading, even if I want to say something, no one will listen , as a woman, it is beyond my ability to do something. But the problem is, Shi Shi is a woman..."

She raised her head, opened her mouth, and finally sighed: "As a woman, it is rare for a man to have a chance, and that is exactly the case, Shi Shi always wonders if I can really do something if I am a man. In the past few years, running for unjust cases, running for disaster relief, running for defending the city, in the eyes of others, maybe it’s just a girl raised in a brothel who is used to being praised, and I don’t know how high the sky is, but I... After all, I want to be among them, Find some things, these things will not be wiped out just because you are married and locked up in that yard. Brother Jian Yun has a chance, so he can see it on the contrary, Shishi didn't have a chance, so... he was trapped Living."

She spoke softly, but sincerely.There are dudes, hot-blooded, reckless, and naive in the capital. Chen Jianyun was born in a wealthy family. He was also a hot-blooded boy who scolded Fang Qiu. He was the heart of the elders in the family. Well, after seeing many things in the family, he gradually became discouraged about the officialdom and became rebellious. When the family let him come into contact with the darkness of the officialdom, he had a few big fights with the family. Later, the elders in the family said that it was up to him Go ahead, he didn't need him to inherit the family property, with his brothers in the family, he could live a life of wealth after all.

Since then, Chen Jianyun has devoted himself to poetry and tea ceremony, and even married, he has never chosen a political marriage.After getting acquainted with Shi Shi, Shi Shi also gradually knew this. As she said, Chen Jianyun has a chance, but she is a woman after all.

"I also know that this kind of thinking is a bit irresponsible." Shi Shi smiled and added another sentence.

"It seems that Shishi is looking for someone who is doing great things, so he is willing to do his best and wash his hands with him." Chen Jianyun held his teacup and smiled reluctantly.

Shishi shook his head: "I don't know either."

"It's just that I've seen a lot of people like this." Chen Jianyun said, "Those who have entered the official career will use any means to get to a high position. Those who are in a high position are either old or have already become one of them. The world is muddy." , Whoever wants to mess up will get muddy. Or after experiencing this incident, Shishi wants to find a general who leads the army and entrust him to him..."

He smiled wryly: "However, the army is not necessarily good. In many places, it is even more chaotic. They form cliques, pay empty wages, and accept bribes. They are more blatant than civil servants. If it weren't for this, how could this war be fought like this?" ... A reckless man in the army treats his wife like an animal, beating and scolding him frequently, so he is not a good match."

On the eve of the New Year's Eve, it's time to confess again, but the result of saying it like this inevitably makes people feel a little complicated.There was silence in the room, and after a while, they both laughed softly again. Chen Jianyun looked at Shi Shi opposite, and said with a smile: "If you really want to follow Shi Shi's idea, among the several senior officials in the court, Li Xiang or It's Prime Minister Qin, Xu is a good match."

He was smiling at first, but after saying this, he felt a little hilarious, and Shi Shi also laughed for a while: "Mr. Li and Qin Xiang are for the country and the people. If there is also a lack of laundry and cooking around me, Shi Shi will be very happy."

"It's a pity that there are no shortages."

"Yes..." Shishi sighed, looking very regretful.

"Everyone in this court, my father once said that the one I admire the most is Prime Minister Qin." After a while, Chen Jianyun changed the subject, "Although Prime Minister Li is upright, it would be difficult to achieve great things without the assistance of Prime Minister Qin. Your Majesty is extremely wise. The defense of Bianliang this time is also thanks to Qin Xiang's coordination. It's a pity that half of the work is done, and it is difficult to complete the work in the end."

Hearing him talk about this, Shi Shi frowned slightly: "Huh?"

"Master, it's not that I don't understand. In the past half month, there have been various affairs in the court. Prime Minister Qin has contributed the most. Master Xiang ran around privately, visited everyone in the court, and met my second uncle. Teacher is in the tower, so it must be the same. heard."

"It's true that you have heard about the Right Prime Minister's Mansion." Shi Shi looked around and thought for a while, "It is also said that the Right Prime Minister wants to use this great achievement to reach the sky in one step."

"Whoever said this must be a treacherous person. Of course, Prime Minister Qin is both public and private, mainly for Taiyuan." Chen Jianyun said, "In the early days, the right minister wanted to resign from the prime minister. He has made great contributions. It is for the purpose of making a statement, to advance with retreat, and hope that all the ministers in the court can fully protect Taiyuan. Your Majesty trusts him, but it arouses suspicion from others. Taishi Cai and the king of Guangyang County acted in the way, wanting to balance, and they are not satisfied with the act of protecting Taiyuan. I would like to do my best to promote it, but in the end, His Majesty just ordered Chen Yanshu to take the crime and make meritorious deeds."

"Then... Brother Jianyun thinks Taiyuan can be saved?"

Chen Jianyun smiled: "Those who have been to the city wall earlier know the evil of the Jurchen. Qin Shaohe has done his best to be able to support Nianhan for so long. After Zongwang and Nianhan's two armies join forces, if they really want to attack Taiyuan, What is the use of a single Chen Yanshu? Of course, some ministers in the court have their reasons for thinking. Chen Yanshu is certainly useless. If the whole army goes out this time, will it be able to stop the Jurchen's full attack? Not only will Taiyuan not be saved, but the entire army will be wiped out, and there will be no chance of a comeback in the future. In addition, who will lead the army is also a big problem."

He paused: "If the King of Guangyang and others command the army, they have long been defeated in front of the Jurchen, and they cannot be trusted. If it is handed over to the second prime minister and one line, the power of Qin Prime Minister will surpass that of Cai Taishi and Tong Wangye." Let’s go. If the old man from the Zhong family is in command, frankly speaking, the Western Army is rebellious, and the old man is not treated preferentially in Beijing. Who can guarantee whether he has any resentment in his heart... That’s why it’s so big Even though the Prime Minister tried his best, he couldn't push this matter. My second uncle supported sending troops to Taiyuan, but he often sighed at home about the complexity of the matter. "

Shishi said: "Then... then we can only watch..."

Chen Jianyun sneered: "The siege of Bianliang has been lifted, and Taiyuan is far away. Who can feel the same about the soldiers coming to the city? We can only hope for the kindness of the Jurchens. After all, the peace talks are over and the old coins have not been given. Maybe the Jurchens are also waiting to go home It is also possible to rest and let Taiyuan go..."

He no longer mentioned the matter of courtship, and he talked about the trivial matters in Beijing and the court, because he knew that Shi Shi was worried about real things, and he liked to hear about them.There are many dignitaries and dignitaries coming and going in the tower, and each has his own thoughts and opinions, which are complicated and diverse. After chatting for a while, in the middle of the night, the teacher sent the other party out. When parting, Chen Jianyun turned around and stretched out his hand Going to shake Shi Shi's hand, Shi Shi took it back and smiled apologetically.

Chen Jianyun also smiled: "I will come to see you again in a few days. I hope that by then, everything will be settled and Taiyuan will be safe, so you can breathe a sigh of relief. It will be spring by then, and the Chen family will have a poetry meeting. I invite you to come over."

Shishi nodded: "Be careful, the road is safe."

"Yeah. You too... think about it earlier."

After he said this, he finally got into the carriage and left. When the carriage drove to the corner of the road, Chen Jianyun lifted the curtain and saw that Shishi was still standing at the door, waving gently, so he put down the curtain, a little regretful and a little affectionate back home.

Shishi turned around and went back to the building.

At the end of the day, she met quite a few people, but Chen Jianyun was the only one, besides some officials, gentry, literati, there were also childhood friends like Yu Hezhong and Chen Sifeng, everyone ate a few glutinous rice balls together, Let's talk about family matters.For everyone, she has different behaviors. If you want to say that she is hypocritical, she is not, but of course there are not many true feelings.

When each of them left, most of them felt that there was something special about them, and Miss Shi Shi must have given them a special treat. Topics that I am also interested in, rather than simply catering.But standing in her position, seeing so many people in a day, if she really said that one day she would put her love on a certain person, take him as the world, and the whole world revolves around him, it's not that she doesn't yearn for it, it's just that ...even I find it hard to trust myself.

Seeing a lot, hearing a lot, I feel irresponsible, and my feelings have become false...

If one day I get married, I hope that I can love that person wholeheartedly in my heart, but if I don't even have confidence in this, then... just wait.

The building was still very lively, and the silk and bamboo were melodious. She went back to the yard and asked the servant girl to light the stove, cook a few glutinous rice balls, put them in a food box, wrap them in cloth, and then asked the maidservant to inform the driver that she Things to get out of the house.

The carriage was lit with lanterns, came out from the backyard of the building, drove through the streets of Bianliang late at night, and arrived in front of a building with bamboo records. She came down and asked the gatekeeper outside the building if Ning Yi had come back.

After a while, it was Su Wenfang who came out of the building. Seeing her, he smiled meaningfully at Convenience: "Miss Li, come to see my brother-in-law again."

Shishi smiled calmly: "It's a special day, so I met him, what, is he there?"

"It's also not long since I came back from outside the city, and Miss Shi Shi came at the right time. However, Miss Shi Shi doesn't plan to go back after visiting late at night, right? Why, you want to be my sister-in-law?"

"I'm just a few old acquaintances in the capital. During the Yuan Festival, it's the time of reunion. I cooked a few glutinous rice balls and brought them here. Mr. Su, don't talk nonsense, ruin your brother-in-law's reputation."

"Well, Qingyu...was assassinated a few days ago, I'm afraid Qingyu didn't have such a thing in the first place." Su Wenfang muttered, turned around with a smile, and led her in.

At present, everyone in the Su family has not returned to Beijing. Considering the safety and planning of various things in Beijing, Ning Yi still lives in this Zhuji property. It is late at night, and the carnival is probably over. Although most of the lights were on, they all seemed quiet at first glance.Ning Yi lived in a room on the second floor. When Shishi entered, he saw a table full of various files and letters. Ning Yi put down the brush in his hand behind the table.

It has been more than half a month since the two met last time.

During the period when he just came back from outside the city, Ning Yi was busy promoting the war, and visited the building several times. Regarding this communication, although his mother Li Yun did not fully agree to follow the steps of Zhu Ji, but We also discussed a lot of things, such as who and what kind of things will help to promote, and those who will not participate.Ning Yi didn't force it. After the negotiation, he still had a lot of things to do, and then he disappeared in various itineraries.

After a lot of publicity, it was Qin Yuyuan's retreat to advance and promote the dispatch of troops to Taiyuan.If it is more complicated, there is a lot of political games involved in it. If it is simple, it is nothing more than you visiting me and I visiting you, negotiating interests in private, and then letting various people go to the Golden Temple to put forward opinions and exert pressure. The indignation of Li Li, a senior scholar, touched the stage.The complex situation behind this, Shi Shi also felt clearly in the fan building. Ning Yi is among them. Although he does not follow the official route, he still has a lot of interest connections with the lower-level businessmen and various landlords and gentry. It's too late.

"Why are you here at this time?"

"If you don't come again, it will be the sixteenth day of the first lunar month. I chatted with Yu Hezhong, Chen Sifeng and the others during the day, and I haven't seen you for a long time, so I brought some glutinous rice balls." Shishi smiled, "I know you have probably already eaten, You don’t have much to bring, so you can eat a couple of bites as you please.”

"I'll get the bowl." Ning Yi laughed, but he didn't refuse.

He went out and brought back two sets of bowls and chopsticks, and Shi Shi had already opened the food box on the table: "Wen Fang said you just came back from outside the city?"

"I'm as busy as you with all kinds of things, and the army also has a holiday. I'll deliver some food... Oh, you cheapskate."

There were only six glutinous rice balls in the food box, Ning Yi was joking, and each divided three, asking the other party to sit down.In fact, Ning Yi has already eaten it, but he still sent the glutinous rice balls to his mouth unceremoniously.

Shishi smiled, looked at the mess at the other end of the room, and said after a while: "Recently people have been talking about you."

"I?"

"Your Right Prime Minister's Mansion."

"Oh. More good things or more bad things?"

"Half of each." Shishi paused, "Taiyuan is also mentioned recently, I know you are all behind the scenes, how is it? Has things turned around?"

Ning Yi frowned slightly: "It's not that bad. In theory, of course there is still a turning point..."

There was some perfunctory in his tone, the teacher looked at him, and when he continued, Ning Yi was stared at by her, so he smiled: "How should I say, Jingli doesn't want to send troops. If you send troops in advance, you will make a fuss and waste money. After all, Taiyuan is not Bianliang. Zongwang had such a hard time fighting Bianliang. Since he gave up and turned to attack Taiyuan, it was a bit thankless and tasteless. Besides, Taiyuan has defended for so long, so it may not be impossible to defend it for a little longer. If the real people really want to attack by force, as long as Taiyuan lasts for a while, they will have to retreat. When the Jurchen and Taiyuan are at a stalemate, as long as we send troops to attack from behind, maybe we can also get results... blah blah blah, not all It doesn't make sense."

"There is also the question of who will lead the army..." Shi Shi added.

"It's almost the same." Ning Yi smiled. He finished eating the glutinous rice balls, took a sip of sugar water, and put down the bowls and chopsticks. "You don't have to worry too much. After all, the Jurchens are gone, and Bianliang can calm down for a while. The matter of Taiyuan , Those important people are also in a hurry, it's not indifferent, of course, there may be a certain fluke mentality..."

Sitting there, Shishi glanced at him, with a slight resentment in his eyes: "Liheng, you see that I am a woman and look down on me, so you want to perfunctory me." Silent for a while, looking at the lamp not far away, faintly He said, "Actually, when many people see the Jurchens retreating, they think it's peace and the matter is over, but as long as they have been to the city wall and are willing to think about it, they will understand in their hearts that this war is not over yet. Although Bianliang has not been broken, if Taiyuan is captured, there will be no celebration and peace of mind..."

Ning Yi looked at her from the opposite side, and in his eyes, he gradually praised him. He stood up with a smile: "Actually, it's not that you are a woman, but that you are a villain..."

"Huh?" Shi Shi frowned and widened his eyes.

"Little people! Little people worrying about these things will only make my stomach hurt. I am also a small person. These days, people who start Bamboo Ji give gifts everywhere, make connections, ask people to help talk, and talk to a minister, but... It's useless. Let me tell you frankly, this push to send troops to Taiyuan is probably useless, the resistance is too heavy, Prime Minister Qin used his aspect as a guarantee, and the other party didn't accept it, which shows that the interests involved in this are not ordinary complicated. "

Regarding the current political situation, everyone who goes to the building can say a few words. The teacher is often dubious, but after Ning Yi said this, her eyes really lowered: "Really... there is no other way?" ..."

"Don't worry about it." Ning Yi looked at her with a smile, "There are still many variables. Chen Yanshu's army, Taiyuan, Jurchen, Western Army, and nearby rebels are all undecided. If you really attack Taiyuan, What if Taiyuan turns into a quagmire of war like Bianliang, dragging them to annihilation? This possibility is not impossible. Wu Ruiying was not allowed to dispatch, but preparations for dispatching troops are still being made. We estimate that the Jurchens have never The possibility of Taiyuan evacuation is not small. Instead of storming a fortified city and losing troops, it is better to take old coins and recuperate. I am not worried, what are you worried about."

"Hmm..." Shishi raised his head, looked at Ning Yi with a slight frown, looked at his smile, and relaxed his eyes, "I just realized that Li Heng, you speak in a mess... Are you really not worried? "

"Of course there is a little bit, but there are still ways to deal with it, trust me."

Shi Shi thought for a while, and finally nodded.

***************

After the time passed, Shi Shi left from the bamboo notes.

The meeting with Li Shishi has always been a bit strange, the attitude of the other party is to treat him as a proud childhood playmate.Although I also chatted about the current situation for a while, and greeted Ning Yi's assassination and safety issues, but more, she still knew about the trivial things around him and asked about his health. On a day like the Lantern Festival, she specially brought a few Lantern Festivals here. In order to maintain such a relationship.Like a strange friend and family member.

Thinking about it carefully, in such a situation, she tried her best to maintain the relationship between a few "childhood playmates" she was not familiar with, and treated them as a forbidden place in her heart. This emotion is quite touching.

In the complicated world, even if surrounded by various complicated things, the radiance of a person's pious emotions is actually not inferior to the historical tide around him.

During this period of time, Ning Yi had a lot of things, not just what he and Shishi said.After the Jurchens withdrew, a large number of troops including Wu Ruiying were stationed outside Bianliang City. Before, everyone was attacking Wuruiying secretly. At this time, various soft knives had begun to escalate. Continuing to promote the dispatch of troops to Taiyuan, and post-war rewards for meritorious service, layer after layer of negotiations, to determine credit and rewards, Wu Ruiying must continue to make preparations for moving to Taiyuan while resisting the pressure of external division. Hong Ti and others from Luliang Mountain wanted to maintain the independence of the troops under his command, so they fought two fights with other troops...

All kinds of complicated things are mixed together, a lot of incitement, meetings and brainwashing are carried out internally, and externally, there are tricks and intrigues.Ning Yi is used to these things, and there is an intelligence system under him, so he may not be at a disadvantage. He combines vertically and horizontally, and his methods of combating differentiation are clever, but it does not mean that he likes this kind of thing, especially when he sent troops to Taiyuan After the plan was thwarted, every time he saw the pig teammates jumping up and down, his heart was filled with anger.

Today, he went out of the city to reward Wu Ruiying, presided over the celebration, met and warmed up with Hong Ti, which made him feel a little relaxed, but what followed was more urgency.After he came back, he wrote a letter at his desk again. The arrival of Shishi made his mind a little clearer. This is probably because Shishi himself is not a person in the bureau. Her worry about the current situation made Ning Yi feel relieved.

It was also because of this that his words were only words that made the other party feel relieved.

After sending Shi Shi away, Ning Yi returned to Zhuji Building, walked up the stairs, thought about things for a while, and before returning to the room, Juan'er came from there and trotted for a while.

"what happened?"

Juan'er didn't speak, and handed him an envelope with chicken feathers on it. Ning Yi knew what it was when he saw it.

He opened the letter, went downstairs, took a look, and after a while, came to a room.This is a conference hall, there are still figures and lights inside, but several staff members are still working at their desks.In front of the meeting room is a big map. Ning Yi walked in and slightly raised the envelope in his hand. Everyone stopped what they were writing or categorizing, and watched Ning Yi stop in front. Then he picked up a small flag, chose a place on the map, and tied it down.

There are already several flags on the map, starting from Bianliang, all the way up, in fact, according to the speed of the flag, everyone has a more or less idea of ​​where to insert the next one, but seeing Ning Yi After stabbing down, there were still strange and complicated emotions welling up in my heart.

"Half." Ning Yi whispered.

From Bianliang to Taiyuan, Zongwang's army had traveled halfway.

Someone swallowed involuntarily.

Ning Yi looked up at the map. After a long time, he finally sighed: "This is... boiled frogs in warm water..."

A nearby staff member could hear clearly, and tentatively asked, "Master, what do you mean by boiling a frog in warm water?"

Ning Yi smiled, shook his head, and didn't answer. He looked at a few people: "Have you thought of any way?"

There are all kinds of things in front of the desks of several people. In front of the nearest staff member is the internal information of the Jurchens collected over the years. The secret of the minister, since Qin Yuyuan's resignation was rejected, Ning Yi, who realized something was wrong, has already started to seek more solutions...

　Eight thousand words!
