In less than five days, the New Year will be celebrated.

The western part of Longyou has been ruled by Dashi for many years, many customs of the Han people have died out with the passage of time, or have been changed, Dashi also has a festival similar to the New Year of the Jin Dynasty, but it is not the first day of the New Year, but the ninth day of the first month of January every year, which is also very lively.

In the land of seven states in the west of Longyou, there may not be any New Year's atmosphere in other places, but in Wuzhou, because there are many Han people, as the New Year approaches, it is still slowly lively, and the atmosphere of the New Year is getting thicker and thicker.

Zhou Qing looked displeased and quickly left Li Xun's living room.

Fan Zhongyun, who happened to come over, said strangely: "Why is Lord Zhou displeased? ”

Zhou Qing snorted and said dissatisfiedly: "Li Xun doesn't know about political affairs, but he interferes in the government affairs of my assassination of the Shi Mansion, which is really unreasonable. ”

After that, Zhou Qing arched his hand at Fan Zhongyun, and said that he still had something to deal with, that is, he said goodbye and left.

Fan Zhongyun walked into the living room, where Li Xun was sitting and drinking tea.

Seeing Fan Zhongyun come in, Li Xun got up and said with a smile: "How are the logistics materials such as grain, grass, ordnance and so on?" ”

"It's almost, I asked Li Cunxiao to recruit transport personnel, it may take a few days."

Fan Zhongyun said a word, and then came to Li Xun to sit down, and Li Xun sat down and asked about something.

Today, Li Xun's official position and rights have been quite prominent, but he has been very polite and respectful to Fan Zhongyun from beginning to end, and has not changed in any way because of the rise of his official position, which is Li Xun's characteristics, which makes many people feel admired and feel comfortable and relaxed to do things under such a person.

After talking for a while, the next person brought tea, the two stopped talking for a while, Fan Zhongyun took a sip of tea from the cup, and then said with a smile: "When I first came, I met Zhou Qing, and I was unhappy, saying that you interfered in the government affairs of the Wuzhou Assassin Mansion. ”

"I'm so busy dying now, where do I have the time to take care of the in his hands, but there is no way, others have sued me, I can't ignore it."

Seeing Fan Zhongyun's face with doubt.

Li Xun smiled, and then explained.

Today's Wuzhou, although the population has decreased a lot because of the war, there are still nearly 300,000 people, of which more than 100,000 are Han people, and foreigners account for the majority.

Every year, on the ninth day of the first lunar month, it is a pilgrimage festival for different races, and many people often gather together to pray and make pilgrimages.

In the past, when Dashi ruled the western part of Longyou, there were many Han people living here, with the passage of more than 100 years, many of them Han people, ideas and customs are completely petrified, the annual pilgrimage festival is coming, the people living in Wuzhou, in recent times, under the call of religious leaders, the people of various cities and towns in Wuzhou, began to slowly gather here in Shenchi County, there are many Han people, Zhou Qing as the history of Wuzhou Thorn, this is very unkind, he strictly ordered the people not to gather for gatherings, more than 50 people gathered, must go to the government for the record, and the Han people among them are all blamed, forcibly let them give up the Tianlan Sect, return to the Han culture, which caused many people to resent and resist, and with the government personnel friction, contradictions, Zhou Qing's methods and attitude are very tough, arrest a lot of people.

The religious leader Jabak finally found Li Xun, explained the reason, and angrily accused Zhou Qing of being unkind to the government.

Five days ago, Li Xun sent a message to Zhou Qing, telling him to do things tactfully, not to be too presumptuous, as long as the people obey the law and discipline, do not meddle and change the way of life of the people, and go with the flow.

But Zhou Qing didn't give any face, and pushed Li Xun back, still self.

Until two days ago, thousands of people gathered outside the city to listen to the lectures of religious leaders, Zhou Qing sent people to drive away, almost caused a popular uprising, the news came back, Li Xun was very dissatisfied, and he no longer gave Zhou Qing any face, in the name of the Wuzhou Supervision Envoy, issued a formal order, let Zhou Qing send all the people arrested, and hold Zhou Qing accountable.

Li Xun is the envoy of Wuzhou Jiedu, only in charge of the army and not in politics, and was originally not qualified to meddle in local government affairs, but after the end of the Longyou War, Zhao Zhi promoted Li Xun's rights in Longyou, and let Li Xun concurrently serve as the supervision ambassador to supervise the government affairs of the seven states in the west of Longyou.

This is also why Zhou Qing came to Li Xun in person today to find his theory.

After listening to Li Xun's description, Fan Zhongyun nodded and said lightly: "Zhou Qing is still too young, and he has not been an official for a long time, plus because of his personality, his grasp of some things is still a little bad, but he himself is honest and honest, and he is not selfish, and the suppression of people of different races should not be intentionally difficult." ”

"I know that, so I don't have the same knowledge as him."

Li Xun smiled, he and Zhou Qing have worked together in Wuzhou for several years, and he still knows him very well, Zhou Qing has never had any selfishness towards people and things, this time he has dealt with people of different races, Li Xun feels that he has done something wrong, not a bad thing, but a lack of work, so even if Zhou Qing speaks a little out of line, Li Xun does not really blame him.

Zhou Qing is just an episode, Li Xun admires him very much, but it does not mean that he will condone him, in Wuzhou, now the entire seven states in the west of Longyou, that is Li Xun has the final say, even if Zhou Qing is not satisfied, he can only endure it, Li Xun's order, he can't disobey.

"Li Changchun is very cooperative, but he only retains 10,000 soldiers, and the remaining 20,000 soldiers are all handed over.

Li Xun diverted the topic and said to Fan Zhongyun about the army.

Fan Zhongyun nodded and said: "Li Changchun is a smart person and a vengeful person, as long as he has the opportunity, he will not cherish it." ”

Li Xun asked, "How is Wang Dezhao's side, have you talked to him?" ”

Li Xun asked Fan Zhongyun to talk to Wang Dezhao for the last time, if he still didn't obey, then Li Xun would not be polite, he was the highest military governor in the western part of Longyou, Wang Dezhao served as the governor of Wuzhou, that was his subordinate, if he refused to obey, Li Xun would completely marginalize him and deprive Wang Dezhao of the military power in his hands, but in this way, this expedition to the Western Regions, the performance of the 20,000 Anbei cavalry may be greatly reduced, after all, even if Wang Dezhao is stripped out, let Shan Qiu or Yuan He be the chief general of this Anbei army, The integration of generals and soldiers takes a certain amount of time, and now, what Li Xun lacks is time, since he has planned to send troops to the Western Regions, he must be surprised, and the first battle is successful, once the Western Regions are prepared, and if he wants to succeed, it will be difficult.

Therefore, as a last resort, Li Xun did not want to tear his face with Wang Dezhao.

Fan Zhongyun said: "I crossed him to my house for dinner at night, you don't have to be anxious, you can see that Wang Dezhao's psychological defense has been loosened, and there is a great possibility that the persuasion will succeed." ”

Li Xun nodded: "You can do it." ”
