My balcony connects the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 381
"Young master, Shuofang has sent a good news. The southern Xiongnu Yufuluo tribe has been expelled fifty miles away. Governor Xu asked whether the next step is to take advantage of the victory to pursue."

"In addition, the Tiger Soul Army has also achieved a good record in Dingxiang. The Propaganda Department asked whether to make Zhang Liao the protagonist of the next dragon and tiger list. Based on his achievements, Captain Zhang is already qualified to enter the Temple of War."

"...The carpenters sent to Xuzhou last month have also been settled one after another. The shipbuilding workshop has been set up, and Mr. Huang has led people to start preparations for the first sea-going ship."

Wei Cheng yawned, not very energetic, looked at the manager who was reporting, frowned and said, "Where's Tian Yuanhao?"

The steward was stunned for a moment, saluted respectfully, and replied: "Mr. Tian and several stewards have gone outside the city to inspect the preparations for the autumn harvest."

Wei Cheng nodded slightly, got up and said: "You can deal with the rest as you see fit. You don't need to ask me for everything. Since the Huns have been driven away, let them come back; Zhang Liao can enter the Temple of War, but it is safe For the sake of it, it’s best to have a better opportunity, and you can discuss this matter; as for Xuzhou, you just need to cooperate with all your strength.”

The steward handed over.

Wei Cheng yawned again, and said: "The most important thing right now is the autumn harvest. You will gather all the stewards in a while, and you must cheer up everyone. After the autumn harvest, you will be rewarded for your merits."

"Yes."

Walking out of the north guardhouse, Wei Cheng once again became the hands-off shopkeeper.

It is absolutely impossible for him to sit in the guard for a day to handle official duties, it must drive him crazy.

Last night, in order to put his two precious sons to sleep, Wei Cheng tossed and tossed all night. He was already very sleepy, let alone doing things.

"Come on, go and call Zhongkang (Xu Chuzi), let's go to Chengdong Hot Spring Villa to relax."

Dian Wei was about to cup his fists in response when he suddenly heard the sound of hurried footsteps behind him.

Dian Wei raised his eyebrows thickly, turned around to block the approacher, protected Wei Cheng behind him, and shouted angrily, "Bold!"

"Uh, brother Dian, it's not necessary."

With a wry smile, Huang Xu cupped his fists and saluted Wei Cheng, greeting with a playful smile, "Master, it's me, hehe."

Seeing that it was Huang Xu, Wei Cheng laughed and said, "Fortunately, you run slowly, kid. If you go one step faster, I'm afraid you'll make a move."

Huang Xu looked at Dian Wei's wide-open leopard eyes, and said with a guilty conscience: "It's been a long time since I saw Young Master, I was so impatient that I almost forgot that I'm not very familiar with Brother Dian."

If it was Xu Chu, there would be no misunderstanding just now. After all, Dian Wei just met Wei Cheng not long ago, and Huang Xu has been away for a while, so it is normal for him to be unfamiliar.

Dian Wei also found out that Huang Xu was the son of Huang Zhong, the chief soldier of Longxiwei, and he cupped his fists in apologetic salute.

He is indeed not familiar with Huang Xu, but he respects Huang Zhong's words.

"Tell me, why did you come to the city guard to find me?" Wei Cheng continued to walk forward while saying.

Huang Xu chuckled, and hurriedly followed, "It's not a big deal, it's just that I haven't seen you for a long time, and I miss you very much."

Wei Cheng didn't believe his nonsense, and said angrily: "Don't be disgusting, talk about something."

Huang Xu scratched his head in embarrassment, and said: "I haven't seen my old man for several days. The military adviser said that he came back earlier. I haven't seen anyone. I'm...a little worried."

When Wei Cheng heard this, he couldn't help laughing and said, "So it's because of Uncle Han, hey, you're not usually so sensible."

Huang Xu put away his smiling face, "I can't help it, just such a father."

Seeing his worried face, Wei Cheng nodded and said, "It's okay, I'm a little filial, don't worry, your father and the silver carp have a small mission, and it's inconvenient to show up right now. I can only assure you that they are all safe."

The expression on Huang Xu's face slowly relaxed, as long as he knew that his old father was safe, he didn't ask more about the specific task.

Not to mention that I was still a little jealous in my heart, I was half dead idle, but my father's tasks were one after another.

If this continues, when will I, Huang Xu, be able to enter the Temple of War God?

"Okay, are you okay?"

Wei Cheng patted Huang Xu on the shoulder and invited: "Let's go, take a bath with us."

Huang Xu waved his hand and declined politely: "I won't go to the bath, I have to go to Dingjunfang to learn from my teacher."

"Apprentice?"

"Well, there is an old man here in Dingjunfang, he is a top expert."

···
On the wall outside Dingjunfang, several young men from farmers' families were squatting in the corner, stacking arhats.

The city guards patrolling next to them didn't mean to expel them, but instead looked at the six or seven-meter-high wall amusedly, to see how you stack it up.

Every son of a farmer has a dream of entering Dingjunfang, because as long as he can enter Dingjunfang, it means that the minimum is the start of the city guard army, which is an excellent way to change his destiny.

Every boy in Hedong County has been influenced like this since he was a child. Whether it is the "Big Han Dragon and Tiger List" or the newly established Temple of War, Wei's martial arts style has spread throughout Hedong.

Even "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", which has been serialized for several months on the "Big Han Dragon and Tiger List", also talks about martial arts.

"Second Master!"

"Ah."

Outside the square gate, a carriage stopped slowly, and Wei Cheng took Dianwei and Huang Xu out of the carriage.

Several teenagers looked back, their eyes brightened.

"Brother, it's Dian Wei who is ranked ninth!"

"Well, well, keep your voice down, that's a big shot."

"Who is that?"

"Well... I don't know either."

Wei Cheng and Huang Xu looked at each other, and they both sighed at the same time, well, they are not as famous as Dian Wei.

Wei Cheng is fine, he doesn't like to show his face in the first place.

But Huang Xuke was heartbroken. If he wanted to enter the Temple of War God, his reputation was one of the criteria for selection. Now his reputation is unknown even to the people in Hedong County, let alone the entire Bingzhou.

In fact, what Huang Xu didn't know was that his fame had already spread throughout the entire Han Dynasty.

It's just that it's not famous for its military exploits, but because the protagonist of "Shooting the Condor" has the same name and surname as him, and it was even written using him as a template.

The three of them entered Dingjunfang, and with just one glance, they saw hundreds of people gathered on the school grounds.

"Close your teeth tightly and don't open your mouth. How can you let your breath out when you open your mouth? This is what martial arts practitioners practice. If your breath is not stable when facing the enemy, it will be full of flaws in front of the opponent. You should keep it in mind. Practicing martial arts is also practicing Qi."

"Master Tong, what should we do if we encounter such a situation?"

"Hehe, if you can beat you down, it proves that you have met a master, and if you don't run or just stand stupidly and die?"

"What if it's on the battlefield?"

Tong Yuan looked back at the young man who asked the question, smiled slightly, and asked back: "Very good question, do you have parents, wife and children?"

The young man froze for a moment, cupped his fists and said, "There are old people on the top, and young people on the bottom."

Tong Yuan straightened his face, and after scanning the crowd, he said in a deep voice: "Then they are your confidence, if you are still a man, you will not be able to vent your anger."

"Well, good chicken soup."

Wei Cheng stood aside and listened for a while, but didn't intend to go in and disturb him.

Leaving Dian Wei and Huang Xu alone, he came to the conference hall alone.

Xu Ding was dealing with official business, when he saw Wei Cheng's sudden arrival, he hurriedly got up and saluted.

Wei Cheng signaled him not to worry about himself, and walked to the side tea table to sit down.

"Where's Zhongkang?"

Wei Cheng looked around, but did not see Xu Chu.

Xu Ding frowned slightly, and said with a wry smile: "Where else can I go, I'm studying the art of war in the back hall."

Hearing this, Wei Cheng laughed and said, "Why, are you still thinking about the Temple of War?"

Xu Ding walked to the cupboard next to the tea table, took a can of tea leaves, nodded and said, "Since Mr. Xu and the others came to the Temple of War, this kid has been holding the book of war every day...Young master, try this scented tea, my wife." Baked by hand."

It is worth mentioning that Xu's family has also attached themselves to the Wei family, and Xu Ding even placed his wife and children in Dingjunfang, helping with some internal affairs on weekdays.

Wei Cheng nodded slightly, and then said with a smile: "It's because I didn't think carefully about Zhongkang's matter, or you can tell him later that I have reserved a seat for him in the Temple of War God. It is a good thing to read more military books. Sooner or later Useful."

Xu Ding was startled when he heard the words, then bowed and thanked his younger brother excitedly.

In Wei Cheng's view, a mere Temple of War God may be just a political means.

But in the eyes of Xu Ding and others, that is the supreme honor, a supreme feat that can be worshiped by thousands of people in future generations.

Wei Cheng gave him a little support, motioning for him to sit down and talk.

"How is Wenhe (Jia Xu's word) doing recently?"

After Xu Ding sat down, he nodded and said, "Very good. Several stewards of the satellite city spoke highly of him, and under his management, the per capita income of the No. 13 satellite city has surpassed that of the No. [-] satellite city. Old man Shi is very angry, haha."

All the people living in Satellite City No. [-] are stonemasons. Before building the Temple of War, it stands to reason that the per capita income should not be low. I didn’t expect Jia Xu to be so capable.

Wei Cheng remembered that the NO.13 satellite city did not have any special business, and it was basically refugees gathered from all over the place, which was very interesting.

"Are you free, let's go to the NO.13 satellite city?" Wei Cheng invited.

Xu Ding chuckled, got up and said yes.

The two of them didn't bring anyone to protect them. They each rode a bicycle, talking and laughing, and rode towards the No. 13 satellite city.

From time to time on the road, farmers who were weeding and watering the fields greeted them, and both of them nodded with smiles.

On both sides of the road are endless green fields, blown by the breeze, like green waves sweeping away.

"This rice field is gratifying to look at." Wei Cheng praised sincerely.

Xu Ding also smiled heartily, raised his head and said: "Yuan Hao just said yesterday that this year's harvest is only in Hedong, and it may be three times more than last year's harvest in Jizhou."

Before that, Tian Feng worked under Mu Hanfu of Jizhou, so he knew Jizhou well.

Although the territory of Hedong is only one-third the size of Jizhou, Weicheng has provided a large number of high-yield crops, such as wheat, rice, corn, potatoes, and sweet potatoes.

The two soon came to the NO.13 satellite city.

What made the two speechless was that the No. 13 satellite city was crowded with people.

"This, this is..."

Xu Ding frowned slightly, shook his head and said, "My lord, wait a moment, I'll ask someone."

Wei Cheng nodded slightly, while looking at the farmer beside him.

I saw a few young ladies gathered together, excitedly and excitedly saying: "Today I can finally meet Brother Kun, the song he sang is really nice, and the Zhao Zihu played is also very powerful and domineering, ahhh, My legs are weak just thinking about it.”

"That's right, that's right, and the elder sister who played the role of Mei Niangzi, how can there be such a beautiful woman in this world, if only I could look like her, the music she plays is also very nice, Don't miss it later."

"Hurry up, check the ticket at Xiangyuelou, I'm going to see my elder brother Kun, don't squeeze!"

Suddenly someone yelled, and the people crowded outside the gate suddenly became agitated, especially some fifteen or sixteen-year-old girls, who seemed desperate to pull in.

Wei Cheng froze for a moment, how could this scene be so familiar.

Isn't this ikun!
Fortunately, Xu Ding didn't keep Wei Cheng waiting too long, and brought Jia Xu to Wei Cheng not long after.

Jia Xu bowed his hands respectfully, "I've seen Mr. Wei."

Wei Cheng waved his hand, pointed at the messy crowd, and asked curiously, "Wenhe, what are you doing here?"

Jia Xu heard the words, looked at the yelling girls, and said helplessly: "You don't know, this No. 13 satellite city originally didn't have any industry, so I wanted to be like Luoyang, entertaining the public all the time with opera juggling What, help the big guys make some money."

"Uh, you... You earn a lot, don't you think so many people come to listen to the music every day?" Wei Cheng asked.

Jia Xu clasped his hands and replied: "It's not like there are so many people every day. Isn't it just a good time to take a bath today? In addition, the income of several surrounding satellite cities has increased a lot recently, so I asked the stewards to specially I went to promote it, and I didn’t expect so many people to come today.”

Wei Cheng glanced at Xu Ding next to him, "Do you know about this?"

Xu Ding shook his head in embarrassment, "Forgive me, my lord, I only found out about this today, if you think it's inappropriate, I'll send someone from the City Guards to come immediately..."

Wei Cheng stretched out his hand to interrupt him, shook his head and said: "Forget it, that's fine, there is no place to have fun, if you drive people back, you don't know what troubles will happen then."

Jia Xu secretly heaved a sigh of relief, he had managed to achieve some results, if he was cut off because of this, he would definitely not be reconciled.

Fortunately, Wei Cheng is an open-minded person. He glanced at Jia Xu and said with a smile: "It's unexpected that I can attract so many people to watch operas and listen to music. Let's go, take me to see and see, what's the matter?" Brother, what else is there to flatter your wife?"

Jia Xu rolled her eyes and said respectfully: "That kid Cai Kun is nothing to look at, but Mei Niang. If you are interested, I will arrange for her to play a song for you later."

Wei Cheng's face was serious, "Why, you think of me as Dong Zhuo?"

Jia Xu's complexion changed drastically, and he almost knelt down, "Don't dare, so, so..."

Wei Cheng laughed suddenly, and said seriously: "I see you are scared...cough cough, what kind of Mei Niang, is she really beautiful?"
