    (Thanks to Yingdao¡ï, yebaoyin, Tang Shibu waved his hands, and Wuhan Fengshen for your support. Thank you!) Early in the morning, the tent on the bed was still dark. Zhao Xuan opened his eyes and felt that it was another brand new day.  , compared with Jianghuai's hometown, the mornings here are colder, even in summer, but you still need to cover yourself with a sheet at night.  The house is quiet. They live in a simple wooden house now. The construction of Tunpu has just begun. They need to dig wells and build walls first, and then start digging the foundation to build the house.  However, there are a lot of trees here. These strong young men went out to cut down trees from the mountains not far away, cut them down a little, and then built simple wooden houses.  Although it is simple and rough, it is really good.  The dozens of people in the Zhao family can no longer live together as before. One advantage here is that it is a big place.  Therefore, the Zhao family finally built two large courtyards, one for their house and one for their uncle's house.  The yard is similar to a quadrangle, with houses on all sides and a large courtyard enclosed at the end. Because there are so many people, their yard has a row of several rooms behind the main house on the north, forming a two-entry quadrangle. Although they are all simply built with wood.  But the house was bigger and the yard was more spacious. He finally had his own independent house, so he no longer had to squeeze in a bunch of brothers.  The sound of his father's cough came from outside the house, which made him feel the same as when he was in his hometown. Every day, his father was always the first to get up. Before he got up, his father was already up and gargling. After gargling, he would always wake up.  If you have to cough for a while, clear your throat.  He jumped up and lifted the curtain aside. It was a very good morning and the sky was reddish.  The wind blew the curtains on the windows, revealing a bright sky.  He opened the door and felt the cold morning in northern Liaoning. A soft and cool wind blew slowly, bringing moisture.  Um.  It doesn't look like it will rain today. It's a nice day.  He walked back to the house, put on a blue round-neck robe that his mother had prepared for him yesterday, tied it around his waist with a cowhide belt, then put on a pair of beautiful boots on his feet, and finally put on  A black soft-footed hat is worn on the head.  After putting on this outfit.  He walked to the basin outside the house and looked at the reflection inside carefully, as if he didn't even recognize himself.  This was the first time that he was dressed so neatly. Not only was he just wearing a turban on his head, but he no longer casually tied a straw rope around his waist.  Not even barefoot but wearing boots.  The father walked over with his hands behind his back, "Get up." "Yeah." "You look very energetic in this outfit." The father looked at his newly dressed son with satisfaction.  After a while, several of Zhao Xuan¡¯s brothers who were going on a blind date also got up, all wearing the same new clothes.  Uncle's father came over with his dog girl Zhao Wei in his arms, "Let's have breakfast after we are all dressed, and then go on our way early. Well, Qilang is the most energetic." "It's better for the imperial court to not only arrange blind dates with girls, but also provide them with the God of Wealth. You see  Now everyone is given such a beautiful set of clothes and hats. It¡¯s really the Holy Emperor¡¯s reign. God bless you. You must remember it and don¡¯t forget His Majesty¡¯s kindness. ¡°Today¡¯s breakfast was good, just average.  We don¡¯t eat breakfast at home. In the past, we had two meals a day in our hometown. We had to wait until we came back from work to eat breakfast, and then wait until the evening to have another meal.  After coming here.  The family has become accustomed to having three meals a day, but the two heads of the household have always been frugal.  The so-called three meals are just two of the original meals.  Added a meal of porridge.  But today there are nine men in the family who are going to the city for a blind date, so this breakfast is particularly different.  Zhao Xuan¡¯s mother and aunt, plus five sisters-in-law and several unmarried sisters, all started preparing since midnight last night and prepared a table of very sumptuous meals.  "Eat more, we have to drive dozens of miles in a while, but don't let your stomach growl when you go on a blind date with a girl. That would be embarrassing. Others think our family doesn't have enough to eat. Who would care?  Are you willing to agree with our family? " Today all the men of the Zhao family will go to the city. The nine Zhao Xuan brothers are going on a blind date, and his father and uncle plus five other brothers who are married will also go with them.  According to my uncle, every one of the nine people who went on a blind date today will win one. If the one who chooses from left to right comes back empty-handed, his legs will be broken and he will not come back.  "The imperial court has won another great victory." Zhao Xuan couldn't help but said to his family at breakfast.  "Where did you win another great victory?" Gou Mei, who has always had a good relationship with Zhao Xuan, answered.  "He must have heard what Mr. Liu said again." Another brother laughed.  Zhao Xuan nodded, "Yesterday when Mr. Liu brought new clothes, I listened to what he said. I heard from him that the imperial court had recently won another great victory in the northwest. Marshal Gao, the deputy envoy of the imperial court, led the western expedition and captured Dunhuang.  The invading Turks and Tuyuhun were severely defeated. Then Marshal Gao and the subsequent army rushed to the imperial court to conquer Tuyuhun. They won consecutive battles and the imperial courtTuyuhun Khan has been captured alive, and the Tuyuhun Kingdom has been destroyed by our Sui Empire.  Now that His Majesty the Emperor has made Tuyuhun the province of Qinghai, I heard that the imperial court is going to send troops to destroy the Turkic Datou Khan who has retreated to the Western Regions after his defeat.  "Speaking of this, Zhao Xuan was full of passion. "This is a good thing. Now that the Holy Emperor of the Sui Dynasty is on the throne, these barbarians from the northwest dare to invade. They are really asking for death.  "When his uncle heard the news, he burst into laughter. Since arriving in northern Liaoning, Zhao Xuan found that his uncle had great admiration and reverence for the emperor of the day. He would always say "holy emperor" when he opened his mouth, and even mentioned the emperor in his ears.  "Did Mr. Liu say when the imperial army would send troops again to destroy Goguryeo?  "My father asked. For these immigrants, they are all concerned about the war between the imperial court and Goguryeo. After all, although this is the old land of the Han family, it has been occupied by the Goguryeo people for hundreds of years. The imperial court cannot be destroyed in one day.  Goguryeo, they always worry about it. What if Goguryeo comes back? They left their families and careers and traveled thousands of miles to come here. This is their second hometown.  No one wants to lose these anymore. ¡°I heard from Mr. Liu that it seems that the imperial court will not fight Goguryeo for the time being.  "Zhao Xuan put down the bowl and carefully recalled what Mr. Liu told him, "Mr. Liu said that the court's top priority now is to stabilize Liaodong and North Liaoning. Although Goguryeo will definitely perish, it does not necessarily mean that it will be destroyed.  A large army must be launched to attack.  The imperial court may use other strategies to deal with Goguryeo. Oh, by the way, the three kingdoms of Silla, Baekje and Japan are now fighting to the death with Goguryeo on the Three Korean Peninsula, and the fight is in full swing.  " "I heard that the King of Silla married his daughter to our Emperor, right?  " "Yes, in fact, not only did the King of Silla marry his daughter to our Emperor, but later Baekje and Japan also sent their princesses to Luoyang to marry our Emperor and marry the Sui Dynasty.  Even Gao Jianwu, the new king of Goguryeo, sent his sister Princess Goguryeo to Luoyang.  " "If the emperor marries a Goguryeo princess, will that destroy Goguryeo?  " "How is this possible? One code equals one code.  " Gou Mei said on the side, "The three kingdoms of Silla, Baekje, and Japan will add insult to injury. They actually joined forces to attack Goguryeo at this time.  " "What is adding insult to injury? They are simply sending out troops in accordance with my decree in the Sui Dynasty.  " "That's good. We don't need to send troops in the Sui Dynasty and let several vassal states go into battle. Well, it's a good thing.  "Old man Zhao stroked his beard and smiled. Zhao Xuan also smiled beside him and said, "I heard that the King of Goguryeo sent an envoy to Luoyang to ask for an audience with His Majesty the Emperor, and to ask His Majesty the Emperor to issue an order for the three kingdoms of Silla to stop attacking Goguryeo.  Then the emperor replied that the troops sent by the three kingdoms of Silla were not an invasion, but to recover the old lands that Goguryeo had invaded them in the past. Therefore, the Sui Dynasty would not forcibly interfere to stop their reasonable demands.  One sentence made the Goguryeo envoy so angry that he almost vomited blood.  Now Goguryeo kept asking the emperor to intervene in the actions of the Three Kingdoms of Silla, and even offered to set the border between the Sui Dynasty and Goguryeo fifty miles west of the Yalu River.  However, His Majesty the Emperor refused. His Majesty the Emperor proposed that the Great Sui Dynasty was willing to have a truce and to adjust the disputes between Goguryeo and Silla, but only if the Great Sui Dynasty and Goguryeo were bounded by the Yalu River. For this reason, the Great Sui Dynasty even gave special permission.  The Goguryeo defenders in the four cities west of Yalu River such as Guoguo and Wugu retreated to the east bank. The Sui army opened the road and never attacked.  " "If it can really be like this, it's not bad.  "Old man Zhao said, in his opinion, Goguryeo is a big country that has been around for hundreds of years. Although before coming here, he had no idea where Goguryeo was. But now he knows that it is a country that has been around for hundreds of years.  It is a big country with a territory of thousands of miles. In his understanding, although the Sui Dynasty is strong, it is impossible to destroy such a big country at once. It is better for the two sides to negotiate a peace and the Sui Dynasty will accept it.  If the Yalu River is the boundary, then the entire Liaodong and Liaobei areas may be stable in the future, and they won't have to worry about it anymore. After the Sui Dynasty stabilizes these newly acquired areas, they can then attack the Yalu River.  It¡¯s not too late to destroy Goguryeo. ¡°I don¡¯t think Goguryeo is willing to agree. I heard that the two cities, Guijin and Wugu, were huge cities. The inner city was once the capital of Goguryeo. How could Goguryeo give up so easily?  , not to mention that if they abandon these big cities on the west coast, it will be difficult to defend Yalu River.  "Zhao Xuan expressed his thoughts. "Then let's fight. We might as well destroy Goguryeo in one fell swoop, and it will be over.  Seeing that he was getting further and further away, Old Man Zhao knocked on the table with his hand, "Okay, these are things that His Majesty the Emperor and the court ministers have to consider, so you don't need to worry about it anymore."  Hurry up and eat. Your task today is for each of you to find a daughter-in-law for me, and strive to get married before the year, marry her into the family, and have a baby next year.  ¡± The Zhao brothers who were talking happily at first, especially the nine who are here todayThe brother who went on a blind date immediately withered away.  "Everyone, cheer up. Don't be unaware of your blessings when you are in the midst of blessings. It's too late for your daughter-in-law, who fell in vain from the sky, to be happy. You still blame this and that, stupid!" Old man Zhao scolded all his nephews with disdain.  , but he believed in his heart that no matter how unwilling they were now, their attitude would change drastically once their daughter-in-law came to the door. Once they had paid off, they would know how big the difference was between having a woman and not having a woman.  (To be continued)
