Red Mansion: Seizing Jiangdong, starting with pirates

Chapter 184, Xiangyun enters the account

When Fang Yong carried her off the horse, Xiangyun felt that the places on her body that Fang Yong touched were hot, an indescribable feeling.

She looked up at Fang Yong, only to find that Fang Yong was also looking at her.

Xiangyun quickly lowered her head.

Even with her carefree personality, she couldn't help feeling a little shy at this moment.

"So, can you tell me your name?"

Fang Yong asked.

"Shi Xiangyun..." Xiangyun said softly.

"It's Xiangyun!" Fang Yong nodded.

Xiangyun saw this and asked, "Does the general know me?"

Fang Yong explained: "Tanchun told me about you!"

Xiangyun's eyes lit up, "Third sister!"

Fang Yong laughed and said, "Tanchun told me before that you are younger than her, but you call her sister!"

Xiangyun raised her chin proudly and said:

"It's no one else's fault. We learned this from the poetry society!"

As they talked, the relationship between the two became closer.

Enter the main tent.

This is a temporary military tent with relatively simple conditions, only some wooden tables, chairs, maps, paper and pens, etc.

There was a screen inside, and behind the screen was a simple wooden bed covered with bedding for Fang Yong to rest temporarily.

There were several military documents on the wooden table in the tent.

With an army of 30,000 people, plus a huge team migrating south, many things happen every moment. Some small matters can be handled directly by the military leaders and staff without bothering Fang Yong, but major matters require Fang Yong to decide personally.

However, the current matters are not urgent. If there is an urgent matter, the soldiers will come directly to inform Fang Yong.

"Xiangyun, please help me grind the ink."

Fang Yongdao.

Xiangyun agreed immediately.

Fang Yong sat in a chair and opened a document.

Xiangyun stood beside Fang Yong, grinding the ink carefully.

Fang Yong looked at Xiangyun and said with a smile: "Why don't you sit down and grind the ink? Are you so reserved?"

Xiangyun blushed and quickly denied: "I'm not shy."

So he sat next to Fang Yong and ground ink.

Fang Yong looked at the information.

Xiangyun was a little curious when she saw this, but as someone from a large family, she knew that there were some things that she couldn't look at carelessly, so she forced herself to suppress her curiosity.

In fact, Fang Yong’s documents are not that important.

The first document stated that the retired emperor had a sudden onset of an old illness and was in critical condition, so he requested to leave the team and go to a nearby town or county for treatment.

In this regard, Fang Yong's staff officer Guo Yu suggested:

"You can treat the disease, but you must be on guard against the emperor escaping under the pretext of being seriously ill!"

The opinion of another staff officer, Jiang Ji, was more direct.

He suggested that Fang Yong should directly imprison the retired emperor. If he died of illness, it would mean that the retired emperor died of old age; if he recovered, it would mean that a thief was controlling the retired emperor and concealing his illness with the intention of causing chaos.

They could use this as an excuse to openly station troops in the imperial palace after entering Beijing.

Jiang Ji, courtesy name Shiji, was the top scorer in the second imperial examination. Fang Yong originally planned to let him serve in the rear, but Jiang Ji wrote several letters requesting to follow the army north, so Fang Yong appointed him as a military adviser.

Fang Yong really couldn't understand it. His character was clearly an upright person, so why did his subordinates always turn out to be such sinister and vicious strategists?

After giving a brief instruction, Fang Yong handed the matter over to Jiang Ji and then looked at the next document.

This is a document about sending scouts to conduct reconnaissance and early warning in the vicinity.

Although the Huaiyin Army was only stationed here for one day, they still had to take necessary precautions. Sometimes, just one day of slackness could lead to failure.

Fang Yong carefully browsed through the arrangements on the document.

Several military staff officers made the arrangements very carefully and there were no omissions. After Fang Yong confirmed that there were no problems, he signed his name and stamped his seal.

Xiangyun watched quietly from the side. Seeing that she was bored, Fang Yong started chatting with her casually.

It starts with Tanchun.

Xiangyun was somewhat curious about Tanchun's life in Huaizhou.

Fang Yong and Xiangyun simply talked about their life in Huaizhou, and Xiangyun listened attentively. When Fang Yong mentioned that Xiao Ronger knew martial arts, Xiangyun's expression became more serious, and her eyes were very bright.

Fang Yong said that after the war situation stabilizes after a while, he would arrange for someone to pick up Tanchun and others.

Xiangyun was very happy to hear that.

The documents were processed while we were chatting and laughing.

There is still some time before the banquet is ready.

Fang Yong then pulled Xiangyun behind the screen.

Xiangyun was a little nervous. Could it be...

Fortunately, Fang Yong is not that anxious.

He just lay on the wooden bed and told Xiangyun:
"Xiangyun, please massage my forehead."

Xiangyun breathed a sigh of relief, took off her shoes, revealing her small feet in white child's socks, and got on the wooden bed.

The makeshift wooden bed was a bit crowded.

Xiangyun leaned beside Fang Yong and gently pressed his forehead.

She didn't know how to massage either, she just tried to imitate it by pressing gently.

Fang Yong squinted his eyes to rest.

Xiangyun looked down at Fang Yong's appearance, and the more she looked, the more handsome he seemed to her.

Why would such rumors be spread about such a person?

Xiangyun was a little curious.

I wanted to ask about Fang Yong's past, but I felt that they had only been together for a short time and their relationship wasn't that close yet, so it seemed inappropriate to ask such questions casually.

Just as she was thinking about it, Xiangyun's pretty face suddenly turned red.

But it was Fang Yong who secretly reached out his hand and grabbed Xiangyun's small feet wearing white child's socks.

"What a strange feeling!"

Xiangyun thought with a red face.

Fang Yong rubbed it gently and felt that the texture of the children's socks was very soft, silky, and thin, and was in no way inferior to modern socks.

This went on for a while, and Fang Yong asked Xiangyun to stop.

"Let's take a break together!"

Xiangyun lay nervously beside Fang Yong. Fortunately, Fang Yong just pulled up the quilt and gently put his arms around her waist, and then there was no other movement.

Being hugged by Fang Yong, Xiangyun was a little nervous at first, but as time passed, she felt sleepy. A lot of things happened that day, which made her mentally exhausted, and Xiangyun gradually fell asleep.

In her sleep, Xiangyun dreamed that there was a big stove beside her. It was warm and very comfortable. She got closer and closer.

Outside, Xiangyun was completely entangled with Fang Yong, like a kitten, with a look of comfort on her little face.

Fang Yong looked at this scene, smiled and shook his head.

At this time, the subordinates outside reported that the banquet was ready.

Fang Yongsui peeled Xiangyun off his body, put her down, covered her with a quilt, and then went to the banquet.

After Fang Yong left, Xiangyun quickly opened her eyes, her face flushed with shame, and she wanted to get under the quilt.

Just after Fang Yong peeled her off his body, the big stove in her dream went out, and she naturally woke up. The fact that she actively hugged Fang Yong to sleep was too embarrassing for her, so she didn't dare to open her eyes and could only continue to pretend to sleep.

At the banquet, Fang Yong invited people who had made great contributions in this operation, such as Jia She, Jia Zhen, Wang Ren, etc. There were also key members on his side, Wei Xing, Guo Yu, Jiang Ji, Jiang Feng, etc.

Originally, he was not planning to call the Shi family, but because of Xiangyun, Fang Yong still sent someone to call Shi Nai over as well.

After learning about Xiangyun's affairs, Shi Nai hesitated for a while and did not try to stop it. Instead, he chose to go with the flow and acquiesced to the matter.

Afterwards, Shi Nai gladly attended Fang Yong's invitation.

After all, Fang Yong is not bad either.

According to the current situation in the world, Fang Yong can at worst retreat to the south of the Yangtze River and control half of the country.

If I'm a little luckier, maybe I can reshape the world...
