There was a light breeze and a drizzle.

The long-lost rain dispelled the heat brought by the autumn tiger, and the air was filled with an autumn mood.

In the water pavilion, a few swallows sheltering from the rain under the eaves chirped, which could not cover the laughter in the building.

"I rule Kaifeng Mansion, like cooking Xiaoxian." Chen Shou looked at the official document with a smile, and was in a good mood.

This year, Kaifeng Mansion is full of good news of a bumper harvest, and the commercial tax is far more than in the past, and the Hu merchants in the Western Regions have not been affected by the troubled times that are about to come, but because they need to hoard materials everywhere, they are dispatched more frequently.

Kaifeng Prefecture has long been Gyeonggi Province, and countless magnates have long occupied the land, and the rest is some saline-alkali land.

Chen Shou went through three palace changes and several battles, and killed the forbidden army family, the Xungui group was empty, and more than half of the civil officials under Wei Yunse were cleaned up.

These people's land has all become a cake that Chen Shou can distribute, which is used to win people's hearts and minds, and also brings a bumper harvest that Kaifeng Mansion has never had.

Huang Zhen laughed and said: "In the long run, our Kaifeng and Daimyo two prefectures will definitely be able to make the people rich and the south of the Yangtze River, and the soldiers will be stronger than Liaodong!" ”

This is a bit full, but no one present corrected him, and it was too late for everyone to be happy, who would come out at this time to make people disgusted.

The high-ranking officials in the water pavilion have not seen Chen Shou with such a snorting demeanor for a long time, he is the backbone of everyone present, since everyone is on this boat, they will rely on Chen Shou's promotion to make a fortune in the future, and glorify the lintel.

Kaifeng and the Daimyo Mansion are the basic plates of the interest group to which they are located, and the future of everyone depends on this.

Even Tao'er behind him raised his hand, covered his lips, and whispered to Liu'er: "Master hasn't been so happy for a long time." ”

Behind the screen, Xue Shao, who was boiling tea, looked at Chen Shou quietly through the curtain with a pair of clear eyes with a slight smile, and liked to see his confident and radiant spirit very much. She picked up the flute in her hand and held it across her red lips, and with a light touch of her jade fingers, a string of light and beautiful tunes came out.

After the water boiled, Tao'er came in to pour tea, raised her two little hands on her chest, and applauded Xue Shao gently, not making a sound but worshiping her face.

The conversation outside continued, Chen Shou paused slightly, plucked the water vapor with the tea lid, and said with a smile: "I want to go to Liangzhou." ”

The water pavilion, which was bursting with laughter, suddenly quieted down, and Liu Zhiying, who was the oldest, was the first to say: "Absolutely not!" ”

Huang Zhen nodded and said: "As the saying goes, the body of a thousand gold, you can't sit in the hall, and even more gentlemen don't stand under the dangerous wall." Hou Ye is a family member of Kaifeng, and countless people are happy in life and death, how can he travel to Xiliang in person. Not to mention before, just in the past few years, how many people have died along the way..."

Chen Shou had long known that once he said it, his henchmen would definitely disagree.

But he had already decided that Xiliang had to go back once.

Along the way, it is just through Qin Hui, and when it reaches the boundary of Xiliang Land, there will be no danger.

As long as you bring enough people with you, you are not afraid of other people ambushing you halfway, after all, although you have enemies all over the world, there are only a few who really tear your face, and they are beyond the reach of the whip.

This road seems dangerous, but in fact it is okay, just because Chen Shou's identity is too special, just like in previous dynasties, the emperor wants to drive a personal expedition or a private tour of micro-services, which will be fiercely opposed by the courtiers.

But there are only a handful of emperors who really have an accident.

A person's status is high, and the slightest risk will make the people who are vassals of him tremble.

The relaxed look on Chen Shou's face also disappeared, and he said in a deep voice after a while: "If I don't go to Liangzhou, I don't know Liangzhou, I don't know Liangzhou, how dare we hand over our backs to them." ”

Everyone in the building looked at each other, and what Chen Shou said made sense, Xiliang's ally was too crucial.

But Chen Shou's henchmen, including everyone upstairs, seem to have really been to Liangzhou, and only Zhang Zhengyuan seems to have been there.

The wife of the Marquis of Zhongyong is the second lady of the General's Mansion, but this cannot be a guarantee of a solid alliance in the slightest.

"Master Hou insists on going, it's better for me to run." Yuan Xiannian volunteered, and Datang went for Chen Shou by himself, and the result was not bad. Not only did he achieve his goal, but he also contacted many officials of the Southern Tang Dynasty.

Chen Shou said categorically: "I have to go in person." ”

As soon as these words came out, the voice of opposition disappeared, Chen Shou's prestige was actually very high, and when it was really time to make an idea, he could say a word.

Because of the current situation, he completely single-handedly fought it, with his back against the four eunuchs, rampage, and knocked the center of Daqi to pieces.

Since Chen Shou insisted on going, everyone worked together and began to plan a route for him and bring people and horses.

Chen Shou said with a smile: "Xiliang Dama, I have been nesting in Xiliang, how can I not be aggrieved." I intend to let my father-in-law, send Xiliang soldiers, to meet me, what do you think? ”

Xiliang soldiers and horses went out of the customs and walked into Qin Hui without the slightest obstacle, because the Qin Huan area had a good relationship with the General's Mansion. Yao Shu of Chang'an is Li Wei's godson, and he goes to Liangzhou every year to celebrate his birthday.

"I see great goodness!" Liu Zhiying stood up, cocked his beard and said, "What's there to be afraid of?" A few of our old bones also went to one or two, which shows sincerity. ”

"Yes." Chen Shou nodded, thinking in his heart that the General's Mansion had been fighting with the Qiang people for a hundred years, and there seemed to be an invisible shackle on them, trapping them in Xiliang.

The Xiliang soldiers, there was no idea of getting out of the customs at all, there was no chance at the beginning, the Qiang people were too powerful, they had just been driven out of the Central Plains, stole a lot of technology, and took away a large number of craftsmen.

Later, he was afraid of gossip, and the Xiliang soldiers knew that they had nothing to do, which would inevitably cause shock to the government and the opposition.

Now that the troubled times have begun, and there are wars everywhere, Chen Shou himself is facing two battlefields, fighting Hedong in the north and Shandong in the east.

The people of Xiliang are still sticking to their own one-third of an acre of land, which is inappropriate, Chen Shou intends to let them come out, I don't know if Li Wei will give this face.

Thinking of this, Chen Shou secretly said in his heart, Li Wei, you must give me some face, I can take care of your two daughters now.

If Li Wei knew, the probability of chasing and slashing himself with a knife might be greater than that of kissing and kissing.

Chen Shou sighed and said, "I asked Miss Li to write a letter to Li Wei, maybe it will be more convincing to him." ”

Li Lingfeng's experience was more tragic, he was sent to the capital by Xiliang as a chess piece, half a marriage and half a hostage. And her husband died as soon as she came, such a daughter, Li Wei was more or less guilty, and asked her to write better than Li Lingyue.

Huang Zhen said: "If she is willing to write, it is very good." ”

"Don't worry." Chen Shou said with confidence.

After sending off everyone in the water pavilion, Chen Shou beckoned Zhang He to come over, and said with a smile: "Go to the summer palace." ”
