Chapter 441: Let the Chanyu Royal Court Become an Inseparable Part of Jiuyuan! [Seeking Monthly Votes]

Yan Qing looked through the work plan of the Intelligence Department and asked Liu Bei:

"Uncle, according to the agreement between Cao's Mansion and the Liao Dynasty, the caravan will take weapons and armor to Youzhou for trading recently. How to arrange it specifically?"

Liu Bei thought for a while and said:

"Let's say that the road is blocked by heavy snow and that we can't carry weapons and armor. We can transport some real-world crafts to exchange for gold. By the way, we can bribe a few housekeepers there to establish a relationship and prepare for the undercover work of Mr. Chai."

As soon as he finished speaking, Wen Huanzhang asked Yan Qing:

"Has anyone from the original caravan surrendered?"

"Half of them have surrendered and said they will contribute to the destruction of the Liao Dynasty... Before they leave, I will ask them to swear in front of the statue one by one."

With old people from the caravan, the success rate of undercover work can be much higher.

As for the original leader of the caravan, he can use the excuse of being sick or promoted. For caravans of this kind of large family, the person in charge will be replaced every few years, which can effectively prevent corruption and petty calculations.

Shi Jin raised his hand and asked:

"Who will go on this trip to Youzhou?"

Yan Qing said:

"I will be the leader of the caravan, and Yang Lin, Yang Xiong and Shi Xiu will be the deputy leaders... This time we are just meeting, and we have less stuff to bring, so the number of people has to be streamlined. It won't be too late to add more people after we get familiar with each other."

If this contact goes smoothly, Chai Jin can leave for the Liao Dynasty after the New Year.

With Chai Jin's looks and eloquence, it should be no problem to get a wave of venture capital from the Liao Dynasty leader. Maybe if he is happy, he can even get the status of a Liao Dynasty prince consort.

However, Chai Jin may not be interested in the princess there. After all, his Chai family is also a serious royal family, and he will not be tempted by the status of a Liao Dynasty prince consort.

Of course, if we can get a lot of assistance, such as war horses, money, food, weapons, etc., it is not impossible for us, Old Chai, to suffer a little grievance.

In short, investment must be proportional to returns, otherwise it will be a loss!

Shi Jin was a little disappointed when he heard that he had nothing to do.

But it was normal that they didn't take him to play with the intelligence department, so he just did something else reluctantly.

Now Zhending Prefecture is in a state of disrepair, and there are a lot of things waiting to be dealt with, so there is no time to relax.

At this time, Wen Huanzhang smiled and said to Shi Jin:

"If my dear brother wants to go far away, I have an errand here."

"Military Advisor, please speak!"

"You and Le He go to Tokyo, and give gifts to the ministers in the court in the name of Chen Jicai, the prefect, especially Cai Jing and Yang Jian. You must give them expensive gifts so that the court will no longer pay attention to Zhending Prefecture in the near future."

Shi Jin was a little unresponsive:

"Didn't Cai Jing's family send a group of people to ask for gifts? Do we still need to give gifts?"

"These are two different things. Zhending Prefecture will receive those people well, and you have to give your gifts. In this way, if someone in the court doubts that there is something wrong with Zhending Prefecture, Cai Jing will only If you open your mouth, you can expose me for a long time. "

Yang Lin was holding a small mirror, arranging his temples in a showy manner. Hearing this, he was surprised:

"Gao Qiu and Tong Guan didn't give gifts?"

Wen Huanzhang said:

"They are military generals. If the prefect of Zhending Prefecture gave them gifts, Tokyo would be suspicious... Civil officials never give gifts to military officials. This is related to the face of the literati."

Taking this opportunity, Wen Huanzhang told everyone about the contempt chain in the officialdom of the Song Dynasty, such as the Western Army despised the Imperial Army, civil officials despised military generals, Beijing officials despised local officials, etc., which made everyone stunned.

Zhang Fei muttered:

"It's really troublesome. Officials are divided into civil and military. It's better in the Three Kingdoms. Everyone is both civil and military. The prime minister is good at making plans, the governor is good at fighting, the chief secretary is the bravest among the three armies, and the chief clerk... the chief clerk is a big fool!"

Speaking of the chief clerk, San'er's mind unconsciously emerged with the image of a certain Bingzhou's top civil official, and he couldn't help but want to spit.

Fengxian my son, your father is not around, you have to take care of yourself, don't recognize your father randomly.

Said to Chai Jin, who was more familiar with the officialdom:

"Isn't this to show the nobility of the scholar-official class? Of course, fundamentally speaking, the Song Dynasty was not legitimate, and they were afraid that the generals would learn from Zhao Kuangyin and bully orphans and widows, so they could only suppress the generals as much as possible."

Listening to these shocking conversations, Fan Xingping, the garrison general of Zhending Prefecture, who was attending the meeting for the first time, was a little nervous. He was very worried that a group of fully armed soldiers would rush in the next second and catch everyone in one fell swoop.

However, when the meeting was over, the scene he was worried about did not appear.

After leaving Fengming Academy, Fan Xingping was about to ride away when the little bully Zhou Tong followed him:

"Are you used to it, father-in-law? Are you scared by what we said?"

Fan Xingping did not want to lose face in front of his son-in-law, so he pretended to be calm and said:

"I attended a party in Tokyo that year, and the conversation was much bolder than this, but those were all hysterics of the literati. Unlike the emperor's uncle, all his arrangements are based on the people's livelihood... No wonder the people of Xinye are willing to follow him. If it were me, I would also lead my whole family to go with the emperor's uncle."

Now Fan Xingping knew that he was tricked by Lu Zhishen in Jimin Temple last time, but he did not regret it, especially after the Zhending Cao family was eradicated and the prefect's family was executed, he was happier than his own promotion.

"Don't forget to go home for dinner after you're done. Xianglan made you a cotton jacket. Go try it."

"Thank you, father-in-law. I'll go home after I finish my shift. By the way, I'll bring some cosmetics that we can't buy here to Xianglan and mother-in-law...Is father-in-law busy today?"

Fan Xingping tightened the reins:

"I want to be busy, but I don't know what to be busy about. If you have something to say, just say it."

Zhou Tong whispered in his ear:

"If you have time, please go to the Taoist temple in the north of the city. Uncle Huang will ask the immortals to treat your hidden disease..."

Liu Bei had said long ago that as long as he surrendered sincerely, he would ask Luo Zhenren from Erxian Mountain to help treat Fan Xingping's hidden disease.

Now that Zhending Prefecture has been taken, Fan Xingping has been helping everyone wholeheartedly, and it is time to fulfill this promise.

When Fan Xingping heard this, he rode away without saying a word.

Zhou Tong returned to the academy and asked Qiao Daoqing:

"Is it really Luo Zhenren who took action? It can't be your illusion, Taoist priest?"

Qiao Daoqing waved his whisk:

"It is indeed the master who came. Today, Fan Rui and I also formally became disciples of Erxian Mountain... Fan Rui is still in the Taoist temple and plans to learn how to treat diseases. In the future, he can also make money with medical skills when he is undercover."

Among the four Taoist priests in Qilin Village, Xie Yingdeng is good at making money by reading Feng Shui, Gongsun Sheng is good at making money by reading physiognomy, and Qiao Daoqing has illusion. If he wants, he can just pick up a stone and it will be money.

Now Fan Rui wants to learn medicine, especially for some hidden diseases, he can definitely make a lot of money.

Zhou Tong said sourly:

"Damn, you monks are all better at making money than the other. Excavator drivers, don't just listen to them, learn from them."

Li Zhong, who was not far away, said speechlessly:

"I used to travel around the country and make a living, wasn't it better than you?"

Zhou Tong patted his uniform:

"I'm an official now, with a salary and bonus, and I'm not exposed to the wind or rain. Are you angry?"

Li Zhong: "..."

Damn, I really want to dig a hole and bury this bastard alive!

After the meeting, everyone was busy with their own things, and the whole Zhending Prefecture was bustling with activity.

General Fan Xingping, the garrison commander, came out of the Taoist temple in the north of the city and returned home excitedly. Soon, the backyard was filled with satisfied cries that had been suppressed for a long time, which made the servants very confused:

"How can a cat call in heat in such a cold day?"

At the city gate, Shi Jinle and the other two were riding horses, and just as they were about to set off, Shi Qian's voice came from behind:

"My two brothers, please take care. The emperor's uncle asked me to go to Tokyo to find something for the court officials to do, so that they don't have to be idle."

Shi Jin took out the intercom, confirmed with Liu Bei, and asked Shi Qian:

"Are you going to pretend to be Song Jiang and write a crooked poem about the queen this time?"

"No, that matter has not been followed up. The military advisor suspected that it was the Nine Heavens Mysterious Woman who made the people in Tokyo forget it temporarily. If I force it, it might attract the revenge of the gods, so I plan to change my mind."

The poet Gu Shangzao felt that the recipe for stealing embroidered shoes and hanging them up was too simple and not challenging. As a technical player, he planned to try some difficult operations this time.

Shi Jin reminded:

"Don't play yourself into jail, or we won't be able to rescue you."

"Don't worry, we won't even enter the palace this time, it's safer!"

The three of them rode on the snow, chatting as they headed south.

When Le He passed by Xingzhou, he would go to Ma Lin, who had successfully gone undercover in a brothel, to remind him to pay attention to hygiene and not get any syphilis.

In the real world, it was half past five in the morning.

Li Yu and the yawning Mu Guiying left the room, sat side by side in the driving seat of the electric five-wheeler, and slowly went down the mountain to pick watermelons in Wang Shengli's field.

Yuwen Chengdu rode a battery car, carrying the sleepy Li Shimin behind him, occasionally reminding Li Shimin to hold on to his clothes and not fall headfirst.

Arriving at the field and seeing Wang Shengli, Li Yu asked:

"This year's melon harvest is great, you must have made a lot of money, right?"

Wang Shengli waved his hand:

"No, even though the retail price is high, the wholesale price can't go up at all. If I take it to the city to sell it, I will be driven away everywhere. If it weren't for the face of the people in our village, these melons might be left."

The melon growers can't sell them, and the common people can't eat cheap melons... Li Yu sighed in his heart, and planned to see which melons in the village were unsalable in the next two days, and buy them to give benefits to the employees.

Everyone worked together, and soon, 5,000 kilograms of watermelons were loaded on the car.

Li Yu actually wanted to buy some more, but Wang Shengli left some melons for others, so he had to drive to another melon field and bought another 3,000 kilograms.

Back at the B&B, Li Yu transported the watermelons to the warehouse and divided them directly, and asked Mu Guiying to take 2,000 kilograms back and give some to the empress and others.

As for Yunxiao and others, they asked Zishou to send them off.

In Mu Ke Village, Li Fengyang said as he ate a watermelon:

"It's true that acquaintances are more common. Since you became the third wife, we have obviously more supplies. But when our watermelons are ripe, we should also send some to the real world. We can't always eat the master's, making it seem like we are selling the village master for glory."

Mu Guiying raised her hand and pinched her cheek:

"You are such a chatterbox. How did everyone tolerate you in Niangzi Pass?"

"Tsk, in front of outsiders, I, Li Fengyang, have always been a cold goddess, but when I came to Mu Ke Village, I was infected by you and became a funny person."

In the underworld, each of the ten kings of hell was given a hundred kilograms of watermelon.

They didn't dare to enjoy it alone, and shared it with their subordinates.

Chief Judge Cui Jue bowed to Zhang Daoling who was delivering the melons:

"Please ask the Heavenly Master to tell the Holy Son that in the future, if you want to extend your life span, you don't need to go through the process. Just pass a note and we will handle it right away."

The Wheel King asked several other colleagues:

"Which hall have those ghosts who offended the Holy Son gone to? Do they need to go through another round? After eating the Holy Son's melon, it always feels inappropriate not to do something."

King Qin Guang smacked his lips in annoyance:

"It's a pity that those souls from Liangshan were taken away by the Heavenly Court before they came, otherwise they would have to taste all kinds of enhanced punishments."

In the restaurant of the B&B, Li Yu was eating a bowl of mutton offal soup.

I picked so many melons on an empty stomach in the morning, and shared them after returning. I was so hungry that my chest was sticking to my back.

After eating a bowl of mutton offal soup and two sesame cakes, I finally felt a little full.

While eating, Lu Bu came to deliver watermelons.

He had left Nie County and was on his way to Tongdi County. This county was next to Qinshui and had a dangerous terrain. Lu Bu thought that he could build a few hydropower stations to make full use of water resources.

Xun You, who was traveling with him, was thinking about the governance of Shangdang County as he walked.

After all, he was a military advisor in the past, and now he suddenly became a governor who governed a region. He had to think more about people's livelihood issues and set a small goal to attract 50,000 people from Jizhou.

Seeing Li Yu eating mutton soup, Lu Bu also went to fill a small bowl, then grabbed four sesame cakes, intending to fill his stomach first:

"I don't want watermelon this time. After taking down Changzi County, can you get me a whole car, so that all the soldiers can have a taste of it, which is a reward from the B&B to everyone."

Li Yu said:

"Okay, no problem, I'll get you a big car then."

After settling the watermelon issue, Lu Bu talked about Zhao Yun:

"After taking down Shangdang County, I plan to let Ma Chao Zhang Xiu led a team of cavalrymen and went back to Changshan County with Zilong to bring his family back. By the way, let Zhang Zhongjing treat his brother. If Zhang Zhongjing was helpless, he would come to the real world. "

Li Yu put the mutton offal into the pancake and took a big bite:

"If Zilong is willing to come to the real world, bring his brother here for treatment. If not, let Yunxiao do it."

"Okay, everything depends on Zilong's decision!"

After breakfast, Lu Bu hurried back to the Three Kingdoms world and continued to lead the troops.

Li Yu was busy with the scenic area, and asked Wang Shengli to prepare a large cart of watermelons to reward the three armies!

Three Kingdoms world, Chang'an City.

Zhang Yang brought his family and came to Chang'an City under the protection of Mu Shun and 500 personal soldiers to meet His Majesty.

He served as the governor of Henei for two months and the governor of Henan for two days, and then hurried to Chang'an.

This time, I will go to Jiuyuan to be the governor. It has been determined to be the seat of the state government. The city will be expanded and the living conditions of the people will be improved.

After a few years of tossing and turning, Zhang Yang is a little uncomfortable to return to the border.

The biggest dream of children who grew up in the border is to live in the Central Plains with distinct seasons, rather than endure the wind and sand and foreign races all day long.

Mu Shun muttered:

"General, we ran from the prosperous Hanoi to the barren Henan, and now we have to go to the border again. Is this the care or punishment of the general of the cavalry?"

From the perspective of power, this is definitely a straight downhill road.

Before, I laughed at Fang Yue for guarding Hulao Pass, but I didn't expect that this guy stayed in the Central Plains because of this.

Zhang Yang said:

"Your Majesty asked me to go to the border because I came from the border and I know the place well. I just don't know who I will be partnered with this time. If it's with a group of corrupt scholars who like to point fingers, then I will find a way to keep you in Chang'an and prevent you from suffering."

"I am not afraid of hardship, but I am afraid that the general will be wronged."

As they were talking, the two saw Cheng Lian riding a horse to greet them:

"Brother Zhishu, do you still remember Cheng Lian from Jiuyuan?"

Zhang Yang hurriedly rode forward with a smile on his face:

"It's been a few years, and I finally see our old brothers again. I heard that you are now the Minister of the Honglu Temple?"

Zhang Yang was very happy to see his old brother, but thinking that Mu Shun would have to go to the border to suffer, he wanted to get close to Cheng Lian and arrange Mu Shun properly to prevent this subordinate from suffering.

Cheng Lian smiled and said:

"It's just to help Your Majesty find some talents, not worth mentioning... Brother, how do you think of Guanzhong after all this journey?"

"I can't believe that Guanzhong has such a grand occasion. I thought it was all barren land like Henan County."

"It was indeed barren land when we came this spring. In less than a year, this place has completely changed... This time, brother goes to Jiuyuan, we will arrange some experienced agricultural technicians to go there, so that Jiuyuan can become Jingxiang on the frontier!"

Cheng Lian wanted to say Jiangnan on the frontier, but thinking about the fact that there are still many Shanyue people in Jiangnan now, Jingxiang area is actually the richest place in the country.

Hearing this, Zhang Yang's face was full of surprise.

If Jiuyuan could be as rich as Jingxiang area, there would not be starving people everywhere in my hometown.

But thinking about the scene of the rampant foreign races, I feel that no matter how much food is planted, it is not enough for the foreign races to plunder.

Cheng Lian knew his worries:

"Brother, you haven't been home in recent years, so you may not know that Wenyuan and Cheng Zhongde have completely conquered the Southern Xiongnu royal court. There are already dozens of Jingguans there. Foreigners will never dare to come to our hometown again."

Zhang Yang: "!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

How long has it been? The grassland has changed so much?

Cheng Lian continued:

"His Majesty has organized a group of people to enter the grassland with you to clear out the foreigners in Yanmen and Daijun. If you are interested, you can join the action. His Majesty has appointed you as the General of Conquering the Enemy to facilitate your leading troops to fight the foreigners!"

Zhang Yang's eyes were full of shock. Thinking of being able to fight the foreigners, he nodded hurriedly and said:

"Okay, okay, I will take up the post right away... Damn, I have wanted to fight the foreigners since I was a child, and now I finally have the opportunity... My dear brother, with the title of general, how far can I lead the troops to fight?"

Mu Shun, who had been muttering just now, also had golden light in his eyes. Obviously, he also wanted to gallop on the grassland and kill all the foreigners who bullied the children of the Han family.

Cheng Lian took out two packs of sandwich biscuits and handed them to the two people:

"The post of Jiuyuan governor can govern the local area, and the post of general of conquering the enemy can conquer the homeland... If you are willing, the Shanyu royal court will also become an inseparable part of Jiuyuan County!"
