MTL - Wei and Jin Cooks-Chapter 748 extravagant ruin

   Wei Yu said: "You are a good general, you should know better, the truth is that the right time is not as good as the right place, and the right place is not as good as the harmony of people."

He said: "The city of Qingzhou is not too high, the pond is not too deep, the military revolution is strong, and there is no shortage of rice and millet. Why are you retreating? It's because the location is not as good as the people. General Gou Chun has lost the support of the people in Qingzhou. If you attack again, you will get twice the result with half the effort. , the general might as well take a step back.”

  Gou Xi has a tough personality and is stubborn, so he refused directly, but the staff around him are thoughtful, after Gou Xi refused, he still asked: "How do you take a step back when General Wei said?"

  Wei Tang said: "Divide Qingzhou into two, but you can merge Le'an County into Yanzhou."

The staff's eyes flickered, and they felt that this move was okay, but they asked for more than Le'an County, he said: "In addition to Le'an County, there is also Jinan County, the rest of Qi State, Beihai County, Chengyang County and Donglai County , Changguang, and then divided into two.”

   Wei Yu looked at Gou Xi.

  The staff persuaded Gou Xi in a low voice: "Master, the situation in Qingzhou is like this. If we continue to fight, it will do us more harm than good. It is better to take a step back. Spring plowing is more important."

   Wei Tang on the side reminded: "General, Governor Zhao may not mean to take advantage of others, but Liu Yuan and Shi Le are not necessarily gentlemen."

  Gou Xi's face was ugly, and his staff persuaded him again, and he agreed to take a step back.

  He agreed here, but Wang Jun and Wang Dun did not agree. If Jinan County is also merged into Yanzhou, then Wang Jun and Wang Dun will both retreat.

  The territory they have won by their ability, why should they retreat if Gou Xi says a word?

  However, at any rate, the three parties let go, and everyone temporarily ceased war negotiations.

In the end, Zhao Hanzhang and the emperor made a deal and dealt with the three of them, dividing Jinan County into two, giving half to Gou Xi and half to Wang Jun. As for Wang Dun, the imperial court exchanged him with the governor of Guangzhou and let Jinan County be occupied by him. of the two counties.

The war subsided, and the emperor finally breathed a sigh of relief. He issued three decrees in a row. One was to divide Qingzhou into Qingzhou and Guangzhou, and each divided the jurisdiction area; the second was to appoint Wang Jun as the governor of Qingzhou and Wang Dun as the governor of Gwangju; Individual counties in Jinan County and Le'an County are designated as Yanzhou jurisdiction...

  Seeing that the war subsided, Zhao Hanzhang wrote a letter to impeach Gou Chun, asking the emperor and Gou Xi to punish Gou Chun severely, thinking that he was harsh and cruel, which caused the disaster, and asked them to replace the officials in charge of Le'an County.

  The emperor thought that what Zhao Hanzhang said was right, and specially summoned Gou Xi, hoping that he could control Gou Chun, and pointed out a new sheriff to Le'an County.

  Because of the incident in Qingzhou, Gou Xi's brothers were greatly disappointed, Gou Xi's prestige was greatly reduced, and he could already feel the opinions of his subordinates.

   This feeling was only experienced once after killing Yan Heng, and this time, it was more obvious.

  So Gou Xi didn't agree with the emperor's order, he didn't trust the sheriff chosen by the emperor, he picked one himself, but recalled Gou Chun to Yuncheng.

  Gou Xi, who had been indulging in sensuality for a year and almost broke his will and body, finally felt a sense of crisis, walked out of his general's mansion, and started to visit his army.

  However, he is used to getting up three poles in the sun, so how could he get out of bed in the severe cold before dawn like in the past, and go to the simple and cold barracks to train soldiers?

  He is used to high beds and soft pillows, so how could he sleep on a wooden board in the barracks like before, with only a thin quilt on his body?

  He is used to delicious delicacies, and his stomach is soaked in oil and water, so how could he be able to eat steamed buns that eat miscellaneous grains?

So he persisted for less than ten days, and when his heart and stomach were clamoring for delicious food, he couldn't hold back, and ordered people to serve fish and wine. When I woke up the next day, it was almost noon...

Gou Xixin, the concubine Ji who hadn't been in for a long time, came to see him with chicken soup, and stood up with a group of maidservants, and said softly: "General, this concubine boiled it herself when she woke up in the early morning. It's three hours, you have a taste, is this soup tasty?"

  The chicken soup has skimmed off the slick oil. It is not greasy, but clear, but it smells fragrant. After taking another bite, the urge to eat meat due to thrift in the past few days has been greatly relieved, and the effect is better than the big fish and meat eaten last night.

  Gou Xi leaned comfortably on the erected pillow, let out a big breath, and asked, "Where's Erlang?"

   Concubine Ji replied: "The little general went out early in the morning. I heard that the county government caught a few thieves yesterday, so he went to deal with them."

   Gou Xi frowned slightly, got up and dressed, "He's the prefect, and it's up to the magistrate to judge the thieves, so what does he care about?"

  Concubine Ji smiled and said, "Let's vent your anger, the young general has been very tempered these days, and punished several people in the mansion, and whenever he meets someone who commits a crime outside, he will often be whipped and punished..."

  Before she finished speaking, the faces of the maidservants in the room changed drastically, and they all knelt down on the ground, trembling.

  Concubine Ji looked at a loss, not understanding what happened to them.

  Gou Xi glanced at her coldly, then rushed outside and said, "Come here, pull her down and teach her the rules."

   Before Concubine Ji could speak, two personal guards came in outside, lowered their heads and didn't look at Gou Xi, covered Concubine Ji's mouth and dragged her down.

  Gou Xi put on her clothes with a gloomy face, and then looked at these maidservants who were still kneeling on the ground, frowning slightly, "Go and receive the punishment. If the ladies are not good in the future, it means that you have not taught them well."

  The maidservants tremblingly agreed, and then dared to get up to serve Gou Xi. When he left, the maidservants in the room went to the execution room to receive the punishment honestly, and no one dared to fool him.

Meals have been prepared in the dining room. This morning Gou Xi didn't get up at 9 o'clock, the housekeeper knew it was not good, and immediately asked people to go out of the house to buy a lot of ingredients. They started preparing in the morning, and now they have finally prepared a table of meals that are barely eye-catching. .

   There are a total of 28 dishes, including cold and hot, soup and meat, and the most rare young vegetable sprouts in this season.

  Gou Xi sat down at the table without changing his expression. The key thing was that he knew that he had guessed right. He breathed a sigh of relief and immediately stepped forward to serve him dinner.

   Seeing the housekeeper's old face, Gou Xi frowned.

The butler instantly understood, and immediately bowed and stepped back. With a wave, the beautiful maids waiting outside immediately came in, one on the left and one on the right, and two on each side, holding chopsticks to add food for him. The movements were graceful, and the chopsticks were flying. Which dish did my eyes fall on, and someone immediately picked it up and sent it over...

  Gou Xi ate this meal very comfortably, thinking that this is life.

  After the meal was finished, it was past time, and the sun was shining brightly outside, but he had just eaten enough. He couldn't help feeling sleepy, and he also felt that his shoulders were a little sore from the past few days of horseback riding and archery practice.

  So he sat outside, basking in the sun while letting the maids massage.

  Since it’s all in the sun, how can there be no singing and dancing when you’re bored?

  There are now more than two hundred servants in Gou Xi's mansion, among whom there are not many who are outstanding in talent, so singing, dancing, and playing the piano, the General's Mansion has returned to its former bustle.

  An official passed under the wall of the General’s Mansion, and deliberately stopped the bullock cart to listen to the singing and piano inside. After a while, he shook his head in disappointment, with indelible sadness in his eyes, “The General is ruined.”

  Ahhh, Gu Wanyin has eight chapters on file, but I don’t have any, I don’t agree~~~~

I want to work hard!
