Chapter 643 Ambiguous
Wu Zhongyuan doesn't know whether he slept well. Wu Zhongyuan only knows that he slept well. The snowflakes were flying outside and the cold wind was howling. Compared with the bright sunshine and clear sky, he prefers this kind of weather with dark light in the wind. There is only the sound of nature, without the noise of the world.
The ninth level of the Heavenly Grade roughly corresponds to the Earth Immortals, Heavenly Immortals and Golden Immortals in later generations. Yuxu’s cultivation is equivalent to the ultimate Earth Immortals, and it is only one step away from the Heavenly Immortals. Although there are still various needs for physical mortals, they do not have rigid requirements like mortals. Taking sleep as an example, if conditions permit, sleep a little longer. If there is anything that needs to be dealt with in a hurry, it will be fine if it lasts for several days and nights.
Because he was feeling relatively relaxed, Wu Zhongyuan slept until the next day at Mao. After waking up, he looked up at Wan Shanhong on the bed, but found that Wan Shanhong had woken up, lying on his side of his arm, staring at him without turning his eyes.
A beautiful woman is like a beautiful scenery, which can really make people feel happy. Men like to be with women who can make them feel happy. The pleasing appearance is one of the only ones, but not the only ones. In addition, there are many positive personalities and qualities such as intelligence, kindness, tolerance, care, gentleness, and considerate.
Conversely, women also like men who can make them happy. Handsome facial features and chic figure are just one of them. In addition, there are all kinds of excellent qualities such as sincerity, knowledge, humor, wealth, generous, and responsible.
If you have to distinguish between the primary and secondary, then the three most important qualities of a woman be kind, smart and gentle, besides her appearance.
In addition to appearance, the three most important qualities of a man should be generous, sincere and responsible.
The reason why generousness is ranked first is that if a man is stingy and stingy with women, it will be over. It is completely over. No woman will like a stingy man, just as no man will like a vicious woman.
Seeing Wu Zhongyuan looking at him, Wan Shanhong smiled at him. At this moment, Wu Zhongyuan really felt like he was bathed in the spring breeze. He smiled back and narrowed his eyes and smiled again.
Ambiguity, like a false ambiguousness, and a mountain of ambiguity.
What is ambiguity? In the eyes of the world, ambiguity is to be tempted, to be rejected, to be unrighteous, and to cut into pieces. In fact, this is a mistake in understanding. Ambiguity itself is a neutral word. In the interpretation of the Chinese dictionary, it refers to those unclear relationships between men and women above friendship and under love.
People’s level of knowledge and understanding abilities are both high and low, and not everyone is good at summarizing. In Wu Zhongyuan’s view, the so-called ambiguity is based on the heart and ends with etiquette. When facing beautiful things, if you fully follow etiquette and directly regard them as a disaster and retreat, it is not a righteous gentleman, it is hypocritical and dare not face it. If you completely violate etiquette and pounce on the consequences, it is not a love supremacy, it is irresponsible moral corruption.
After smiling at each other, Wu Zhongyuan asked, "Tell me the truth, how old are you?"
"You see, I'll be as old as I am." Wan Shanhong smiled.
"What would you do if I walked over?" Wu Zhongyuan asked with a smile.
"You can try it." Wan Shanhong also smiled.
"Do you want me to try?" Wu Zhongyuan asked again.
"Hope." Wan Shanhong smiled and nodded.
"Hahaha, I won't try." Wu Zhongyuan stood up and stretched, "Get up and clean up the road."
Wan Shanhong sat up with her arms, "Are you afraid that I will rely on you, or are you afraid that I will be criticized by the world and be criticized by the promiscuous infamy?"
Wu Zhongyuan smiled and said, "Hahaha, I'm not afraid of you relying on me, nor am I afraid of carrying a slander. I am the Huangdi of the human race. I will marry a few if I want to. Historically, I will not consider a few queens or imperial concubines if I marry him, unless it is outrageous. And I have not even married the three palaces and four courtyards that the Great Wu of the Bear Clan is standard. Who is qualified to blame me?"
"Then what are you worried about?" Wan Shanhong asked, not a resentful question, but a curious question.
"Do you want to hear the truth?" Wu Zhongyuan asked back.
"Say." Wan Shanhong nodded.
"I only say this time. I don't want similar conversations to happen again in the future, otherwise it will destroy the tacit understanding between us." Wu Zhongyuan said.
"Okay." Wan Shanhong nodded again.
Wu Zhongyuan said seriously, "I am the Huangdi in troubled times and the target of public criticism. If I fight against the five powerful enemies, it will be difficult for me to have a good end. I don't want too much drag and worry, and I don't want too many people to bury me for my life."
Wan Shanhong nodded and asked, "Then why do you want to marry them?"
"Because they were already on this ship, okay, get up quickly and pack up." Wu Zhongyuan walked to the door and pushed the door out.
Wan Shanhong had nothing to clean up, and she didn't even bring her bags. After washing up next to the hot spring stream, the two drove a giant eagle to the sky and heading south.
Wan Shanhong rode a white crane before, but the reason why it was replaced by a giant eagle this time was because the white crane was a migratory bird that was not tolerant of cold, while the giant eagle was a resident bird in the north and could withstand the severe cold of the cold icelands in the extreme north.
At this time, the north wind was blowing. The two of them went south with the wind. When they set off at Chen Shi, they entered the Central Plains just after Si Shi. Wu Zhongyuan pointed out the path and led Wanshanhong to Lianshan.
At noon, the two arrived in Lianshan and met Prince Jiang Tao.
Jiang Tao thought Wu Zhongyuan came here this time to check the implementation of ambergris. He took the initiative to report without waiting for Wu Zhongyuan to speak, but said that all the people in the country had already smelled ambergris and strictly implemented it without any omissions.
Wu Zhongyuan affirmed Jiang Tao's work, but the two came here mainly to explore the motive and detailed process of Jiang Zheng's order to destroy Lianshan. Since this incident happened several years ago, Jiang Tao was very impressed by this incident. The reason why Jiang Zheng wanted to destroy Lianshan was replaced by it. Jiang Zheng always wanted to replace it from Lianshan. If Lianshan did not destroy Lianshan, the small tribes in the Western Regions did not come to Lianshan. The so-called Lianshan was acquainted with the bandits was just an excuse to send troops to wipe out.
However, Jiang Tao did not participate in this matter, and the leader was the Yong Wang Jiang Zhen.
Since Jiang Zhen led the team, he naturally had to go to Jiang Zhen to understand this matter. Later, Wu Zhongyuan confirmed another situation with Jiang Tao, which was the city in the Niu tribe that produced nitr salt.
According to Jiang Tao, since the cattle people are far away from the East China Sea and the South China Sea, the salt consumed by people's livelihood mainly comes from nitr salt, that is, mineral salt. There are three places in Yuancheng that produce nitr salt, namely Guishan, Hushan and Qingshan. Among them, Guishan and Hushan produce less output, while Qingshan in the southwest direction has more output.
After asking about the situation, Wu Zhongyuan said goodbye and left, did not have lunch in Lianshan, nor did he explain to Jiang Tao why he wanted to investigate the matter.
Jiang Zhen’s palace was located in Xiaoshan. Before noon arrived, Jiang Zhen was having lunch. When he saw the two of them coming, he hurriedly ordered the kitchen to prepare a banquet and welcome the air.
Jiang Zhen was a few years older than Jiang Nan and older than Wu Zhongyuan, but Jiang Zhen respected Wu Zhongyuan, the Huangdi and brother-in-law. First, Wu Zhongyuan treated him very well and rewarded him in various ways. Second, Wu Zhongyuan's bravery showed in the previous East China Sea battle made him very impressed. Jiang Zhen himself was a hawkish general, and the one who admired the most was a brave and warlike person like Wu Zhongyuan.
Wu Zhongyuan did not go around it anymore, and directly involved in the main topic and asked about the details of the suppression of Lianshan. When Wu Zhongyuan envoyed Wan Shanhong to be the Princess Yongshou from outside the Aryan city, Jiang Zhen was present. Knowing that she was not an outsider, Jiang Zhen had no scruples and told the truth.
When Jiang Zhen was talking, Wu Zhongyuan and Wan Shanhong just listened quietly without interrupting him.
After Jiang Zhen finished speaking, the food was served. The three of them got on the table. Wu Zhongyuan and Jiang Zhen spoke Q&A, and Wan Shanhong was eating and drinking on their own.
Most of the warriors Jiang Zhen brought when he wiped out Lianshan were from Yuancheng in the southwest and west directions of the Niu tribe. Most of these cities are now under his jurisdiction. Since he has been stationed in this area, Jiang Zhen is very familiar with the situation of these cities, including Qingshan, which produces nitrification salt.
Since the incident of Yichang bronze medals happened thirty years ago, and the two parties involved were already in their fifties back then, Wu Zhongyuan did not hope that Jiang Zhen would know about their situation, but since he was here, he always had to ask the previous question.
What he didn't expect was that Jiang Zhen had an impression of both Yi Huan. Jiang Zhen did not know the ugly monster who sold bronze medals, but knew that there was a village called Lefengling hundreds of miles west of this place. Most of the people in the village had the ugly appearance described by Wu Zhongyuan.
Jiang Zhen also had an impression of the Qingshan warrior who had exchanged the bronze medal. The reason was that Wu Zhongyuan had previously granted him the title of King of War and distributed him five walled cities, including Qingshan. After being granted the title, Jiang Zhen inspected the five walled cities, the towns and besieged cities under his jurisdiction, and visited and condolences of the older generation of warriors. During this period, he saw an old warrior who had three fingers missing on his left hand. Jiang Zhen couldn't remember what this person was named Jiang Zhen, but he knew that this person lived in Qingshan's monastery, in his eighties, lost three fingers in the war in his early years, and has been responsible for Qingshan's logistics since then.
This person is still alive, but he is not in good health. He suffers from tuberculosis and has a severe cough.
Wan Shanhong originally had a leisurely and leisurely food. When Jiang Zhen talked about this, she accelerated her meal. Although she had not been with Wu Zhongyuan for a long time, she knew that Wu Zhongyuan focused on work efficiency and would compete every second on important matters and critical links.
Wu Zhongyuan didn't expect things to go so smoothly. He was worried that the old warrior would die of illness and didn't care about eating. He took some snacks and moved with the two of them to Qingshan.
Qingshan is not far from Xiaoshan, and in half an hour the three of them arrived at the ground. The city lord of Qingshan, Jiang Xiu, was killed in the East China Sea battle not long ago. At this time, the deputy city lord Jiang Guangping was in charge. Jiang Zhen knew the residence of the old warrior, and did not seek Jiang Guangping's lead. He directly led the two to find the yard where the old warrior lived.
The gate of the courtyard was open. When Wu Zhongyuan walked to the door, he saw a white-haired old man sitting under the north wall of the main house in the courtyard, basking in the sun. Three fingers were missing from his left hand exposed.
Seeing that the person was still alive, Wu Zhongyuan felt relieved. The three of them entered the house. The old warrior recognized Jiang Zhen. Jiang Zhen introduced him. The old warrior was very frightened and trembled. "Subordinate Jiang Zhu, pay homage to the emperor."
Wu Zhongyuan hurriedly helped him up and helped him into the house.
Wan Shanhong followed in, Jiang Zhen brought the door with his backhand and guarded outside the door.
Jiang Zhu is already over 80 years old, but his minister is a minister. Wu Zhongyuan helped him into the main seat and sat in the guest seat, calling him his name, "Jiang Zhu, I came here this time to explore an old story that happened many years ago. You have good memories and answer truthfully."
Wu Zhongyuan's seriousness frightened the old man, stood up tremblingly, coughing anxiously, "Saint...Master...Master, please ask."
Wan Shanhong stepped forward and helped Jiang Zhu sit down, poured him a glass of water, and then returned to his position.
"Thirty years ago, did you have exchanged several bronze medals for nitrate salt from Lianshan?" Wu Zhongyuan asked in a deep voice.
"Thirty years ago?" Jiang Zhu was old and had a vague memory.
"Yes, thirty years ago in autumn, in the evening." Wu Zhongyuan asked.
