"The best strategy is not good, and the worst strategy is not good. You should choose it." Huan Yuan smiled. "I have some subordinates in Minyue. If you need it, I will ask them to go to Nanyue to pick you up."

Liang Xiao couldn't help laughing. "How many years have your subordinates been free to raise? Can you still listen to you?"

Huan Yuan was calm. "Some people, even if they are by your side every day, will not be loyal to you. Some people, even if they only meet once in their lives, will remain unswerving until death. Whether they are loyal does not depend on the length of time, but on whether they are in the same spirit."

Liang Xiao glanced at Zhongliqi behind Huan Yuan and said nothing more. He himself did not believe that there was such a friendship, but it did not mean that it did not exist. Zhongliqi's loyalty to Huan Yuan was a bit inexplicable. Whether Huan Yuan was a newly released prisoner or a general who commanded the thousand troops, he would never leave him.

"Okay, actually, I'm coming back to you. One is to ask you for your opinion, and the other is to ask you for some tactics in the jungle. I guess this trip to Nanyue is likely to be the opposite of the mission to the Western Regions. I go there in a magnificent and shameless way. If I don't understand the jungle war, I might die in a certain valley."

Huan Yuan picked the corner of his mouth slightly. "Yes, you are prepared for any trouble, this is your greatest advantage."

"You can't be careful." Liang Xiao sighed. "No matter how dangerous the jungle is, it's not as dangerous as the court."

"Do you regret it now?" Huan Yuan teased: "If I had listened to me and stayed in Minyue, it would not have been so troublesome now."

"That's right, even if you can't handle the King of Minyue, there's no problem with Liu Ju." Liang Xiao laughed and said, "But it's not too late now. Master, I still have a chance. But by this, Liu Ju's good life will come to an end."

Huan Yuan's face changed slightly. Then he smiled again. "Okay. In general, life is better now. But..." He then put away his smile again. "The emperor is wise and decisive, better than his father and grandfather. You are unwilling to be a minister, so you should be more careful."

Liang Xiao nodded and agreed.

Not long after, the fish soup was delivered. Liang Xiao picked up the pottery bowl and took a sip of the fish soup. It immediately became fragrant and couldn't help swallowing it. He swallowed a bowl of fish soup in a few sips and stretched it over.

"Another bowl."

Huan Yuan held the bowl, glanced at him, and ordered, "Aya, put another bowl for him. Just one bowl, and there will be no more."

The Yue girl responded with a smile, and then filled Liang Xiao with a bowl of fish soup. Liang Xiao took it and looked at the Yue girl. "When did you call Aya?"

"The name given by Master Huan." Aya blushed and smiled with a pursed lips: "My name is Aya, and her name is Aman."

"It's quite elegant. It's a good match. Master, you really know how to name a few."

"Man and Ya. They were originally the two sides of Wu Yun and Chu Feng." Huan Yuan took a sip of the soup, closed his eyes, and a comfortable smile appeared at the corner of his eyes. "I just picked it up at will, and it was not strange. Instead, you thought too much and were persistent. Just like shooting an arrow, holding the bow too tightly, and trying to win, it is not beautiful."

Liang Xiao curled his lips. Huan Yuan seemed relaxed, but he said casually, but in fact he had some ideas. He is now a big family and has a lot of things to consider, so it is impossible to be so calm. Huan Yuan said that his three strategies are not the best and the worst, and he is indeed not wrong. However, it is not easy to let him leave now. Not to mention whether he can leave, even if he can leave, he is not willing to accept it.

How can you leave without fighting?

Liang Xiao returned to Bailu Jingsan and found Deng Guobin, asking him to bring the recent research results. Not long after, Deng Guobin brought several Huainan disciples and brought several large bundles of silk books and two ship models.

"After comparing, these two models are more suitable." Deng Guobin picked up a ship model, which was like a treasure. "This is the main warship with the largest size. After it is built, it will be a water city. According to Junhou's suggestion, a sail was installed. However, on such a large ship, how to use the sail remains to be practiced. Judging from the experiments of the small boat, it should save a lot of effort..."

When talking about specific technical issues, Deng Guobin talked endlessly and spoke in an eloquent manner. Several other guests also had their eyes shining and added from time to time. It can be seen that they were very satisfied with this kind of life. Not everyone wants to be an official, but the official-oriented culture makes these people unable to live with dignity, and can only reluctantly devote themselves to the struggle of the officialdom and waste their talents in vain.

"You copy the data again. If it's time, you can do a few more of these ship models. The tests that have not been completed are not needed for the time being."

"Why?" Deng Guobin was very surprised.

"I may have to leave Yuzhang for the time being." Liang Xiao sighed. "I don't know who will come to take the lead, nor what kind of work the successor is. I don't want your efforts to be treated as garbage."

Deng Guobin understood, nodded, and retreated.

Liang Xiao walked to the window and looked at the vegetable fields at the foot of the mountain, showing a helpless smile. The vegetable fields had just been tidied out and were about to be transferred away before they had time to grow vegetables. The emperor's mood was more changeable than the clouds on Pengli Lake. I don't know which clouds would rain.

"What's wrong, can't bear to bear?" Guan Fu walked in, leaned over, looked out along Liang Xiao's gaze, and smiled and said, "Don't worry, I am the prefect of Yuzhang, and no one dares to touch your vegetable field. When you come back, you might be served with new dishes."

"I'm afraid I won't have a chance to eat new dishes." Liang Xiao turned around. "Why are you here? Urge me to go on the road?"

"How dare I?" Guan Fu wiped his beard and squeezed his eyes. "There is an edict here."

Liang Xiao looked behind Guan Fu in surprise. Han Shuo stood with a knife, his face was thin, but his spirit was pretty good. Seeing Liang Xiao look at him, he owed his body a little shyly. "Lian Junhou."

"Why are you back?" Liang Xiao frowned. "Are you the envoy to deliver the imperial edict?"

"Yes, Your Majesty is pity for me and let me be my husband. This time I was ordered to go on a mission to Nanyue with the Lord and the Lord."

Liang Xiao smiled bitterly. The Han brothers really got along with me. As soon as Han Yan was killed, Han Shuo was back. After crossing Han Shuo's shoulder, Liang Xiao saw several familiar faces, and Qin Ge was listed. Liang Xiao couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly. These officials were not Weiyolang, but guards around the emperor. The people called them Qimenlang. Soon after, they had a more majestic name: Hu Benlang.

Liang Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly and he couldn't help but tilt his mouth. He didn't say anything and accepted the edict. The edict was quite polite. The emperor explained the consideration of sending him to Nanyue, told him to pay attention to safety, and specifically stated that he would keep his Lushan Manor and a hundred acres of vegetable fields as his private property. As for his errand work on supervising the building of the building, the emperor did not mention it. Naturally, he was spared.

"Your Majesty is so kind to me." Liang Xiao put away the edict and sighed in a fake manner.

"Yes, Your Majesty has high expectations for the Lord. I hope you will work hard and don't let Your Majesty down."

"Hahaha..." Liang Xiao laughed and waved his hand. "I'm happy and happy together. Today I invite you to eat the specialties of Pengli Lake. I won't go home until I'm drunk."

It was late at night and the moon was hidden in the dense bushes. The half-hearted Liang Xiao walked slowly along the mountain road, and Qin Ge stood shoulder to shoulder with him, holding his hands behind his back. He had not spoken for a long time.

Liang Xiao sighed softly and felt deeply moved. "I didn't expect that after several years, we will fight side by side again."

Qin Ge smiled and said, "Yes, but now you are the champion of the 3,800 households with fiefs, and I am still a 600-stone man."

"This is just luck. By the way, the war in the Northern Xinjiang ended, has Zhongqing been promoted again?"

"The beheadings of 35,700 people, and the town has been added to 3,500 households, a total of 4,300 households."

Liang Xiao pondered for a moment, a little surprised. "No promotion?"

"No, I'm still a junior doctor, and I'll be a junior minister."

"This is unreasonable." Liang Xiao smiled and said, "The emperor is not satisfied with this battle?"

"With the battle of Henan, how can this battle satisfy the emperor?" Qin Ge also laughed. "The killing and injury are comparable to the damage of war. Zhongqing can still increase the territory. It is already the emperor who is particularly kind to the emperor. Oh, by the way, Zhongqing is going to go to war this time. He will go to Kuaiji with Gong Han, and Mrs. Zheng will also go home to visit relatives."

Liang Xiao's brows trembled slightly, but he said nothing. Wei Qing was sent to Kuaiji, which was somewhat beyond his expectations. Judging from the current situation, there was no problem. He went on a mission to Nanyue, and Wei Qing assisted Han Anguo in sending troops to Kuaiji. The two young generals who could fight the battle together, and the emperor gave enough face to Nanyue. However, from another perspective, this may not be the emperor's plan for the battle in Liaodong.

Will Wei Qing be the one who really went to Liaodong? If this is the case, he will really not be able to find a reason to object. If he competes for merit with Wei Qing, he will be despised.

The emperor has really put his heart into good intentions.

"How is the palace?"

"The palace has changed a lot. Wei Zifu gave birth to two daughters in succession, and Your Majesty was not very happy. Both Mrs. Chen were pregnant. According to the imperial physician, at least one of them should be the prince. If it is true, then His Majesty's always worrying is fine. The Lord's father Yan entered the palace, and His Majesty admired him very much. In less than two months, he was promoted. Zhang Tang made great contributions to handling the Jiangdu case, and now he has become a court officer, which is quite favored by His Majesty..."

Qin Ge came one by one to the palace, and Liang Xiao listened quietly. The emperor knew his relationship with Qin Ge, and arranged for Qin Ge to come to convey these messages to him. From what he knows now, the emperor seemed to be favored by him. As for what the emperor was thinking, Qin Ge didn't know, so he could only rely on him to guess and analyze it with the existing information.

After chatting with Qin Ge until midnight, Liang Xiao returned to the room. After completing the night practice, he did not fall asleep, but wrote a letter of gratitude to the emperor.

The next day, he sent twenty knights with Xie Enshu to escort Deng Guobin and others to Chang'an, packed his own luggage, and embarked on the journey of a mission to Nanyue.

The emperor held his cheek and stared at the exquisite ship model without blinking.

Although these two ship models are only six feet long and three feet high, each part is very finely made and does not look like a model at all. It gives people a strong sense of reality, as if it is a warship ready to go, ready to be powerful all over the world.

"Can this ship enter the sea?" the emperor asked suddenly.

"It should be no problem." Shang Gongling, who came under the imperial edict, was also fascinated by the eyes. When he heard the emperor's question, he quickly said: "But what exactly depends on the real ship built. No matter how exquisite the model is, it is a model after all."

The emperor glanced at him and pushed the drawings into front of him. "Before Liang Xiao came back, build a real warship."

Shang Gongling showed a look of embarrassment. "Your Majesty..."

"If you think you can't do it, then give up your position to avoid the virtuous." The emperor snorted: "If you can't even do it well, what else can you do?"

Shang Gongling was so sad that he didn't dare to say anything again. He asked someone to pick up the drawings, and he carefully held the boat model and bid farewell to the palace.

The emperor looked at his back and showed a moment of deity. Then he turned his head and looked at Xu Le and Master Yan. "You are all people in the sea. How do you think this ship is like? Can you sail into the sea?"

The Lord's Father Yan responded, "Your Majesty, you need not only a boat to go to sea, but also to be able to distinguish the direction. In the sea, the water and sky are vast. If you cannot distinguish the direction, you will easily lose your direction and die of hunger and thirst."

The emperor said strangely: "Isn't the sea full of water? Why do you still die of thirst?"

The master Yan smiled and said, "Your Majesty doesn't know that the sea water is bitter and salty and cannot be drunk at all. Drinking it forcibly is like drinking poison to quench thirst."

"really?"

"Your Majesty, that's true." Xu Le echoed: "Not only that, there are great storms in the sea, and there are also giant beasts. Although this ship is large, it may not be able to be fully protected."

The emperor said nothing, but there was an undetectable relief between his eyebrows. He raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a little smugness.

The master Yan lowered his eyelids, but his eyes were staring at the emperor. He quietly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the pride in the corner of his mouth. Since he learned about Han Yan's death, he had always been holding a heart, afraid that the emperor would blame Liang Xiao for Han Yan's death. Now it seems that the emperor is quite at ease with Liang Xiao.

When Liu Ling entered the door, he stood with the door frame for a while before stepping into the house.

Alpha rushed over and supported Liu Ling. Mama Liang also stood up and asked with concern: "Aling, how are you?"

"It's okay." Liu Ling smiled slightly and glanced at his belly. "The reaction was a bit big in the past two days."

"Oh, this is a good thing." Mama Liang was overjoyed. "The moon was also very responsive at the beginning, and then she gave birth to a boy. It seems that you are a boy too."

"My mother, how can I know now?" Liu Ling sat next to Mama Liang, took out a letter, and pushed it to Mama Liang. "A Xiao has written a letter."

"How is A Xiao?" Liang Mama put away her smile and felt a little more worried. "Did the emperor blame Han Yan for his incident?"

"It's okay, Han Yan takes it for himself, what's the matter with his husband?" Liu Ling said lightly: "It's just that he was on a mission to Nanyue, and Yu Zhang's affairs are about to stop. Deng Guobin and others are going to stay in Chang'an for a while. Mother, I plan to stay outside the city for a while. Do you think it's okay?"

"Go outside the city?" Mama Liang hesitated. "I have no problem. It's just that you are pregnant and live outside the city. How can you be convenient in the city?"

"It's okay. Some people around me brought from Huainan, and there is Aunt Shi in the village. If something happens, I'll just ask someone to come back and notify me. Living in the city is convenient, but the problem is that it's too convenient." Liu Ling raised his hand, pointed to the direction of the imperial city, and laughed softly: "People come and go, so they can't live a peaceful life."

Mama Liang seemed to understand but she didn't understand. However, she knew that Liu Ling was responsible for doing things, so she didn't stop him and responded readily.

A few days later, Liu Ling took Deng Guobin and others to leave Chang'an City, came to Maoling Manor, and thanked the guests in a closed door. -
