Chapter 248 Who Persuades Who
Xun Song froze! He couldn't believe that the woman behind him was his daughter! Xun Guanniang had been strong since she was a child and had a fiery personality. She was not like a woman, especially after she was taken away by Wu Puzhen at the age of thirteen. What kind of **** soup was poured into her, and while she was strong and hot, her personality became even colder.
Going back to the back, it was as if all emotions and emotions were cut off. It was difficult to even step forward to the house. Occasionally when he came back, he would come and go in a hurry. This made Xun Song extremely sad and regretful. He regretted that he really shouldn't have let Wu Pu go. The real person took his daughter away. She is a woman in her thirties, and others at her age have several grandchildren.
I have mixed feelings in my heart, and the soreness and numbness in my waist and back are fading away bit by bit. Although Xun Guanniang's massage techniques are not as good as Yunfengji's thousands of years of experience from countless famous Chinese medicine experts and modern medical theories, they are still comparable to those of Wu Puzhen. It is true that minor problems such as common waist and leg pains are not a problem for her.
"Aweng, your words are becoming more and more charming. Moderate and peaceful but also imply sharpness, especially these fourteen words: worry about the world first, and be happy after the world's happiness, just like you think about yourself. Others think you are a good person in the court, but my daughter understands that you are really worried about the world. It’s just that the various factions in the court are entangled and have their own plans, so you can’t express your ambitions. That’s all.”
Xun Guanniang's voice interrupted Xun Song. It turned out that Xun Guanniang had been thinking about how to deal with her father along the way. Her thoughts were the same as those of Yunfeng and his wife. Her father must have come with the intention of persuading, and in several cases These fourteen words gave her an idea, and she felt somewhat confident about how to deal with it!
Old Xun Song's face turned red. He laughed and said: "Mother Guan, you praise fatherhood too much. These fourteen words come from General Yun's book. Being a father is nothing more than feeling something in your heart and your hands are itching for a while. By the way. Being a father's waist. Your back is much better now. Just sit back and let us, father and daughter, have a nice talk."
"Well, Jiankang is wet and cold in winter, so you should pay more attention, especially your waist and legs, which need to be kept warm. I will go back to prepare some medicine for you later, and I will come over regularly to give you massages in the future." Xun Guanniang gave a few words of advice. He got up and went back to Xun Song and sat down.
Xun Song was slightly shocked, and he felt more and more unbelievable. How could a person change so much? 'Is it him?' A picture appeared in Xun Song's mind unconsciously, which made him helpless and hateful, but still With a somewhat happy face.
Xun Song shook his head and asked: "Guan Niang. You have had more contact with General Yun. Do you know this person?"
Xun Guanniang frowned and said thoughtfully: "My daughter has not had much contact with Duanshan, but she seems to have some understanding, which may not be comprehensive. Duanshan is quite easy-going and rarely puts on airs with others. He has an affinity that can affect the people around him unconsciously, and he treats others with humility and sincerity. He treats the little girl as a teacher, and one thing in particular is quite similar to you, Aweng. That is, he has the world in his heart. It’s also where my little girl appreciates him.”
"Oh."
"Ah!" Xun Guanniang exclaimed. This question was too sudden, and she quickly denied it: "No, no, what's the matter? It's not like you don't know, my daughter has already been married if she wants to get married. Why bother?" Until now? My daughter has followed Master and devoted herself to cultivating Taoism, and has long since given up thinking about it."
Xun Guanniang's explanation was so eloquent that she didn't even understand why she had to explain it in such detail. With her usual personality, the word "no" was enough! And what she didn't notice was that there was also a question on her cheek. There is a small patch of almost imperceptible red clouds!
Xun Song's eyes were fixed on his daughter, and he couldn't help but feel guilty! He secretly thought that something was wrong, when had this daughter blushed? This was the first time for him to see her, and his suspicions became more certain, and all kinds of feelings came over him. It came to mind. There is no doubt that Xun Guanniang's gratifying change must be related to Yunfeng. If Yunfeng hadn't married Zhang Lingyun and Xun Guanniang didn't object, he wouldn't mind recruiting this man as his son-in-law. After all, he was very fond of Yunfeng. Feng was very fond of her. As for the age gap, Xun Song didn't think it was an obstacle. As the saying goes, a girl who is five years old is better than her mother! Mother, why are you dissatisfied with finding an old mother for you? But it would be too embarrassing for three masters and apprentices to serve one husband together!
After careful consideration, Xun Song asked bluntly: "Ms. Guan, are you aware of some rumors outside? There are rumors about you and General Yun."
Xun Guanniang finally understood why her father asked her inexplicably if she had a sweetheart, so she nodded and said helplessly: "My daughter, I heard it from the Xi family's sister, but there is nothing anyone can do about it. Duanshan is Lingyun's husband." , my little girl has never thought about things between men and women, I really don’t understand why these people are so boring and make up rumors out of hand."
"Hey," Xun Song sighed: "You and General Yun live in the same mansion, and Yunying is not married, and as a master and apprentice, you are just Master Lingyun and have nothing to do with General Yun. Besides, although you are over the age In his thirties, his skills are so good that his face only looks like that of a twenty-year-old man. It’s no wonder that some people are gossiping. How about you go home and live there? "
Xun Guanniang shook her head and said: "Things that are pure will become pure by themselves, and things that are turbid will become turbid by themselves. No, my little girl can't leave. Doesn't walking away just confirm that there is a ghost in her heart? Besides, Broken Mountain will not stay for long. According to my daughter's estimation, it will be next summer and autumn at most. It’s time to go back, then the rumors will naturally stop.”
Xun Guanniang's categorical statement made Xun Song's subsequent persuasion impossible. He was unwilling to argue over such a matter. The father and daughter had never had such harmonious communication. Xun Song cherished it very much. He smiled bitterly in his heart and continued to ask. "Guan Niang, how do you know that General Yun won't stay long? He told you?"
This question was asked without any clue, but Guan Niang understood it and immediately responded: "Lingyun told the little girl, Aweng, why not do this, if Wang Dun really wants to raise an army, you take the two brothers to the little female master's door Take shelter for a while, Wang Dun will not dare to act wild there."
Xun Song was noncommittal: "We are not busy with this matter. Many armies from the imperial court are attacking. Wang Dun may not have a chance of victory. We will make a decision later depending on the situation."
Xun Guanniang smiled disdainfully: "The generals in the imperial court all have their own agendas. It can be judged from this troop mobilization that our Huaxianmen's purpose is not to quell the rebellion, but to seize the two states of Jingjiang and replace Wang Dun's position to control the upper reaches of the river. , the main force in the battle near Jiankang is the refugee commander, and I think there should be no chance. And asking the refugee commander to help is actually driving the wolf away from the tiger. Even if Wang Dun's rebellion is lucky enough to be suppressed, the court will suffer the consequences in the future. "
"Oh? How can you see it?" Xun Song asked puzzledly.
Xun Guanniang began to analyze. Of course, it was basically Yunfeng's opinion, relayed by Zhang Lingyun, but also mixed with some of her own opinions and additions.
Xun Song's expression changed all the way. After all, he was just a civil servant and his thinking was limited. Especially when he heard that Wang Dun might serve as Zhengshuo, Wang Chong of Donghai, his expression changed drastically! At this time, his thoughts were different from those of Yun Feng. It’s similar, Sima Rui shot himself in the foot.
After a long while, Xun Song said with a bitter look on his face: "Now it seems that the prince really has no chance of winning. It's a pity that General Yun is unwilling to help, otherwise Prince Ping Dunying would be more confident."
Xun Guanniang smiled and said: "It's not that Duan Shan is unwilling, but that the court refuses to meet his conditions. In fact, Duan Shan is right. The people have their own weight in their hearts. If it is really unbearable, no one will care about his few books." ."
Xun Song seemed to have thought of something and said displeasedly: "But when the military disaster happened and all the lives were lost, didn't General Yun keep saying that he was serving the country and the people? If he was willing to help the court quickly put down the rebellion, wouldn't it be possible to minimize the losses? It would be better. After years of endless war, why would he threaten the court with those few books?"
Xun Guanniang smiled slightly and said: "Don't be angry, O Weng, just listen to the little girl. If you don't fundamentally change, what will happen even if Wang Dun's rebellion is quelled? There will still be the Refugee Marshal's rebellion in the future. Wang Dun only serves as a substitute for Zen. , it is not enough to kill people indiscriminately. What difference does it make to most people if the world's surname is Wang, Sima, or something else?
But the refugee commander is different. The refugee commander is attracted by the clan and the local party. He is lawless, cruel and barbaric, exclusive and selfish. An example of this is the case of the minister, who robbed, killed and traveled when he first crossed the river. What's more, how can the refugee commander retreat easily after crossing the river? Because of King Qin's meritorious service, he made many requests to the court, but the court was wary of the refugee commander, and the nobles looked down on the refugee commander. Over time, the conflicts between the two sides would eventually become irreconcilable, and a big chaos would arise. I am afraid that the refugee commander would cause even greater harm. Yu Wangdun. Then again, even if the rebellion of the refugee commanders is suppressed this time, and there is another strong vassal in the upper reaches, there will still be a second Wang Dun. Will the court ask the Jiangbei refugee commanders to send troops again? If it goes on like this, what will happen in this world? When is the end? People have been suffering for generations, when will there be a way out?
To tell you the truth, my daughter once went to the tenant community of Waguan Temple with Duanshan. Haha, I’m afraid you haven’t been there? Do you know how miserable their lives are? The moon is dew in the cold winter. Let alone keep out the cold, many people don’t even cover their bodies. Even if you don’t have all your clothes, it’s not that my little girl is harsh, you are already frugal enough, but one meal you spend is enough to feed the tenants’ families for a month, not to mention the nobles surnamed Wu who live a luxurious life? In this way, if you have no time to spare, If necessary, my daughter can accompany you for a walk later, I guarantee that you will be shocked and will never forget it!"
"Oh?" Xun Song was still shocked by the consequences of diverting civilian commanders to help, but when he heard the miserable situation of the tenants, he couldn't help asking: "What if this is happening? Jiankang is prosperous and prosperous, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. Guan Niang, are you exaggerating?"
Xun Guanniang said sternly: "No, my little girl saw it with her own eyes and couldn't believe it before. Of course, today's tenants of Waguan Temple are no longer living the same life as before because of the broken mountains to distribute money and rice, but other tenants are still in poverty. At present, Duanshan can only do this. He can take care of the tenants of Waguan Temple and open the water of Baidang Lake, but what about the entire Jiangdong land? How many tenants are there? How many Baidang Lakes are there? My daughter is still saying the same thing. , Seeing is believing, Aweng will know it as soon as he sees it." (To be continued...)
