At the end of July, the Hanzhong area has entered the rainy season.

The water level of the Western Han Dynasty skyrocketed, and Feng Yong, who was urgently recalled to Hanzhong by the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty, had to give up the idea of taking a boat and rode all the way back to Hanzhong along the Western Han River.

It was raining, so Feng Yong only took his guards on the road.

Guan Ji and the child stayed in Pingxiang until the end of August, and then set off as originally planned.

"Brother, this rain seems to be getting heavier than just now, do you want to find a place to settle down first?"

Li Yi wore a hat and a decaying clothes, wiped a handful of water droplets on his face, and asked.

Feng Yong looked up at the sky.

The sky was gray, and the cold raindrops fell on my face, and I felt that the rain had flowed down my neck and into my clothes, and it was wet and uncomfortable.

Feng Yong opened his mouth and asked, "What are the road conditions on this road?" How long will it take to get to Wudu? ”

Li Yi glanced at Xu Xun, who happened to be returning to Hanzhong with him.

Xu Xun hurriedly replied: "Brother Hui, the road conditions are okay." If it is at the current speed, I am afraid that it will be dark by the time I reach Wudu. ”

"The rain is not too heavy, so I can continue to walk and rest before dark. Let people go to the front to check first, see if the road has collapsed, and pay attention to safety. ”

Soon there were two riders picking up speed and running forward.

Feng Yong turned over and dismounted, walked to a high ground, and looked at the Western Han River not far below.

Two years ago, when this road was taken in the spring, the Northern Expeditionary Army could still use it to transport grain.

But now, even if he was standing far away, Feng Yong could hear the surging roar.

The boots made of fine cowhide were already soaking wet, and the water seeped into them, and the surface of the feet was wet and cold.

There was a sound of "creaking" stepping on the thin mud behind him, and Feng Yong didn't have to look back to know that Li Yi and Xu Xun were following.

"In the past two years, you have taken Dongfeng Express to transport grain to Longyou, which is really hard."

Feng Yong said.

I still wait for others to ride lightly, but Dongfeng Express is to transport grain in this situation, which is hard, needless to say.

Xu Xun didn't expect his brother to say this, and hurriedly replied:

"The elder brother led the army to kill the thieves in the front, that is to protect the brothers with his life, the brothers in the association can have today, who is not grateful to the elder brother?"

"The younger brother is just transporting grain at the back, compared to the elder brother, how can it be called hard work?"

Military merit is the fastest way to be promoted, and the elder brother, as the head of the association, the higher his position and the more stable he stands, the more hope the brothers in the association have.

Take the present as an example, the elder brother is the captain of the Qiang Guard, and he is in charge of all the affairs of the Hu people in Longyou, which is a big piece of fat.

What is the price of the grain distributed to the Hu people, what is the price of the cattle, sheep, horses, wool, leather, etc. that are collected, and what is the price of the sale, and so on.

Isn't it all up to the elder brother to decide?

My brother has the final say, isn't Xinghan going to have the final say?

Even if the brothers in the club don't do anything, they can make a lot of money with their mouths up and down, and they can make a lot of money when they change their hands.

It's just that how did this Captain Qiang come about?

Didn't my brother buy it in exchange for his life?

Rushing to Longguan, fighting fiercely in the street pavilion, running Hu people, coercing Liangzhou, just change someone, can you do it?

Therefore, the position of Captain of Qiang is the most suitable for the elder brother.

"If you really want to say hard work, my brother is hard work."

Xu Xun said sincerely.

He often runs to Pingxiang, so he naturally knows what kind of place Pingxiang is.

In the beginning, the city wall was not even a dirt fence, and the roots of the wall were full of the smell of feces and urine.

Compared with Jincheng, I don't know how many thousands of times worse.

Now the brothers in the church are living comfortably, and there are brothers in front of them.

Feng Yong held the horsewhip in his hand and smiled indifferently:

"You don't have to be humble. I walked this path two years ago and know what it looks like. ”

"And at that time, there was a great drought in Longyou, and it was you who worked tirelessly and led people to transport grain to Longyou, which alleviated the urgent need of the Qiang's Captain's Mansion."

"Longyou can have today, if you really count it, you also have merit."

Xu Xun heard his brother praise himself like this, although his mouth was modest, but the corners of his mouth that reached his ears clearly expressed his heart.

Feng Yong turned around and said to Xu Xun, "Now that Longyou is barely stable, you won't have to work back and forth like this in the future." What's next? ”

Xu Xun was stunned.

Li Yi reacted quickly and kicked him from behind.

Xu Xun finally understood, and his heart was beating wildly: he was ...... After Zhao Erlang and Li Dalang, they will officially become the core of the Xinghan Society?

The people who held the positions of real power in the Xinghan Society were the first few people to follow their brothers.

After all, at the age of everyone, they are still in the stage of mixed qualifications.

Except for my brother, basically no one has a chance to come out.

Xu Xun's voice trembled a little: "The younger brother listens to the brother's arrangement." ”

Feng Yong smiled slightly, and he didn't sell it:

"I have two paths here, the first is that the prime minister plans to change Yueshan to Neijun, Yueshan Taishou Meng Yan is ready to be transferred to Hanzhong and enter the Prime Minister's Mansion, and Zishi (Wang Xun) moves to Taishou."

"This vacant county position, the prime minister asked me if there was anyone I wanted to recommend."

This is the difference between the second generation of officials and the students who came out of the school.

Zhang Yuan is the best among the students in the academy, and now he is studying in the martial arts hall, and if he can become an intern lieutenant after graduation, it can be regarded as the highest starting point.

This is still under Feng Yong's special care to have such achievements.

And Xu Xun, as the second generation of officials, has accumulated some credit, and he directly started as a juncheng.

Xu Xun's face was happy, he swallowed his saliva, resisted his impulse, and looked at Feng Yong, "I don't know what the second one is?" ”

"Second, now in the Captain Huqiang Mansion, those students in the General Staff Department are now talking about martial arts, and some logistics matters are too cumbersome, I want to find someone to help manage them."

"You have helped transport grain in the Longyou Army in the past few years, and you also have a lot of experience, so you should be able to get started quickly."

"Of course, if you don't like either of these two, I can still recommend them to the prime minister or the emperor......"

Before Feng Yong finished speaking, Xu Xun directly interrupted him: "Brother, the younger brother chooses the second article and serves in the Guardian Captain's Mansion." ”

Juncheng looks good now, but don't forget, the Huqiang Captain's Mansion is nominally in charge of all the Hu people in Longyou, Guanzhong, and Liangzhou.

I don't know how many times the future is bigger than Juncheng!

As for the Prime Minister's Mansion, Yang Yi, Wei Yan, Jiang Wan and others are not only older than themselves, but they also don't know how much older than themselves.

With his current age and capital, he does not have such capital as Li Wenxuan.

The most I have to do when I go there is to serve tea and pour water, how many years do I have to boil before I can get ahead?

The Captain's Mansion is naturally not as good as the Prime Minister's Mansion, but how old is the brother?

And as long as you are not blind, you can see that Cheng is more important than his brother, so his brother's future, even if it is worse than Cheng, it may not be much worse!

Now that I have this good opportunity, isn't it stupid not to hurry up and hug my thighs?

As for recommending to the emperor, it is even more unnecessary.

My own adult, now he is Da Changqiu Cheng, but he is a trusted person in the Middle Palace, what are you still squeezing in?

Xu Xun was able to make a choice so quickly, which surprised Feng Yong slightly.

He glanced at Xu Xun approvingly: "Okay, when I arrive in Wudu, I will immediately send someone to Hanzhong to ask the prime minister for instructions." ”

This did not come out, not only Xu Xun, but even Li Yi was a little surprised: "My brother is going to Hanzhong anyway, why don't you mention it to the prime minister together at that time?" ”

Feng Yong took a deep look at the direction of Guanzhong, and said to the two of them meaningfully: "I'm afraid it's too late." ”

What's too late?

The two looked at each other a little inexplicably, and were about to ask again, when they saw the two horsemen who had gone to explore the way just about to gallop back.

"Report to the prince, the road ahead is not broken!"

"Good. Get on the horse and hurry! ”

Feng Yongyi waved his horsewhip and ordered.
