The next day, two things spread in Chang'an City.

The first is that the Wei general Zhang Yuan succeeded in blocking the Hun cavalry four times as large as his own with inferior forces, and won a great victory.

The second thing is that Princess Pingyang deliberately chose a suitable housewife candidate for Zhang Yuan.

The first piece of news is naturally the happiest people in Guanzhong, and those cattle and sheep can directly benefit them.

And the second piece of news made the nobles of Chang'an a little excited.

As long as there are daughters in the family who are still old and unmarried, they all send the portraits and birthdays to the Pingyang Marquis Mansion.

Zhang Yuan is the hottest figure in Chang'an City now.

Although Wei Qing does not have a wife yet, everyone knows that she is not a princess, so there is no drama at all.

Zhuo Wenjun locked herself in the room directly in the Xin'an Hou Mansion, and she didn't really want to know everything outside.

Although Zhang Yuan is in his thirties, everyone who is interested in the ladies is as young as fourteen years old and as old as twenty years old, and no matter how old he is, he is really an outlier if he is not married.

Because women have no autonomy, they don't say they can marry whoever they want.

Most of them are married, and those in their twenties are not married, not because girls don't want to marry, but because their parents haven't found a suitable son-in-law.

"Your Royal Highness the eldest princess, you said that we work so hard.

Can General Wei grasp our hearts? ”

"Your Majesty explained something, do you think I want to be this wicked person?

The eldest daughter of the Zhuo family is also not angry, and her stomach has not moved for so many years, and Zhang Yuan has never had children.

In addition, Zhang Yuan's parents have also passed away, and he has no relatives, such a person is a person who has no concern.

A person who has no concerns, how can His Majesty trust him more. ”

Even though their status has risen, the two sisters, Wei Junru and Wei Shao'er, still often come to Pingyang Hou's Mansion.

They need to keep in close contact with Princess Binh Duong in order to be able to help their husband's family.

"Which family did Her Royal Highness the eldest princess fall in love with?"

"I haven't thought about it yet, and the birthday eight characters sent today are not 100 but 80.

Excluding those whose status is not equal at all, there are also twenty or thirty liehous who want to marry Xin'anhou. ”

"This new Anhou is quite blessed, but anyone who goes out can get a lot of credit."

The resentment in Wei Junru's heart still did not dissipate, although her own marriage was also directed by Liu Che, but Liu Che's intention at that time was to pull the Wei family along.

She was considered to be climbing high branches at that time, that is, in recent years, Wei Qing has become more and more trusted by Liu Che, and this official is getting bigger and bigger, and he is about to sit at the end, and Wei Junru can only raise his eyebrows in Gongsun's house.

Now that she is in the family, her voice is not small.

Almost all big and small things can be interfered with, and even the patriarch of the Gongsun clan greets her with a smile every time he sees her.

The younger brother is so promising, so naturally he still thinks that his husband can take another step.

But there are so many official positions in the Han Dynasty, and the higher he goes, the fewer the positions, Zhang Yuan has won Gongsun He's military exploits, and he will definitely suppress Gongsun He.

"Who says it's not, if my husband can have half of Xin'anhou, he won't be a Zhan Shi now."

"Okay, okay, what's wrong with Zhan?

It's no worse than Jiuqing, when the husband gives birth, if it's a baby boy, you will all rise up. ”

"Hey, I hope my sister's stomach is a little more angry.

I heard that there was a wizard in the palace, and I asked the heavens, and I said that it was a prince. ”

"Your Royal Highness the eldest princess, if the prince really gives birth to a prince for His Majesty, it will depend on you to operate from it."

"What is this saying? I asked you to come to find a good match for Xin'anhou.

How to talk more and more partially! ”

"Her Royal Highness the eldest princess forgives the sins, we won't say it anymore."

In fact, Princess Pingyang also hoped that Wei Zifu could give birth to a boy, and then asked Liu Che to make Wei Zifu the queen, so that this prince would be the eldest son of the Han Dynasty, and the crown prince was basically gone.

After the news of Zhang Yuan's victory spread throughout Chang'an City, not only the girls of all families were moved.

It also ushered in a new wave of skyrocketing business in Xin'anhou Mansion.

The rich man who had been standing still earlier went to the Ziqian Village of Xin'an Hou Mansion on this day, wanting to exchange all the copper coins in his house for five baht coins.

Zhuo Wangsun knew that a big deal of business was coming, and he couldn't control his daughter.

Hurriedly urged the smelting workshops around Chang'an to start smelting and casting five baht coins at full speed.

The more stable Zhang Yuan's position in Dahan now, and the more Liu Che trusts him, the higher the credibility of the five-baht coin.

Jianzhang Palace Jade Hall Palace.

"Your Majesty, many princes have sent people to Qingpingfang today.

According to our report, I am afraid that the list of copper coins exchanged in Qingpingfang today is estimated to have exceeded 200,000 yuan.

Do you think you want to control it? ”

Liu Che shook his head, this is not the time to sanction Zhang Yuan at all.

"Send someone to Qingpingfang and ask them for a five-baht mold.

At the same time, it was ordered that all taxes collected this autumn would be charged five baht. ”

Sang Hongyang's heart trembled, knowing that Liu Che was going to support Zhang Yuan and implement the five-baht coin across the country.

"Minister, let's go down and do it."

After Sang Hongyang left, Liu Che took out another piece of paper and began to write a few questions on it.

Then let people send it to Zhang Yuan urgently.

Liu Che's drastic change in attitude towards Zhang Yuan actually made him a little incomprehensible.

The economy is Liu Che's shortcoming, and Sang Hongyang is dissatisfied with Zhang Yuan, Liu Che knows it.

Now if you want to support Zhang Yuan's implementation of the five-baht coin, it is natural to ask Zhang Yuan how to act.

This letter reached Zhang Yuan's hand faster than the previous wooden box.

Six days later, Zhang Yuan, who was still waiting for news from Liu Che in the surrendered city, received this question from Liu Che.

The emperor's questions to his subordinates are called policy questions, and the courtiers give methods or opinions based on the emperor's questions are called policy questions.

Originally, Zhang Yuan thought that the letter Liu Che gave him was an edict, but it turned out to be a question.

So much so that he directly summoned all the generals and officials before, wanting to read this edict in front of them.

"General Wei, what did Your Majesty say in the edict?"

Zhang Cigong hoped that it would be an edict for them to return to Chang'an City, and it would be better if there was a little more news of the reward in it.

"Well, I'm a little confused.

Your Majesty's letter has nothing to do with you, so let's all disperse. ”

"General Wei, when is this, Your Majesty is writing to you at this time, how can it be that it has nothing to do with us?

If Your Majesty says in the letter that you want to hide it from everyone, then there will be nothing to say, if not, what do you want to do to hide the meaning of the Son of Heaven? ”

Han said that he didn't get any credit for this expedition, and he became more and more dissatisfied with Zhang Yuan in his heart.

And now that the war is over, everyone is about to return to Chang'an City, and he is not afraid of Zhang Yuan.

In terms of his close relationship with Liu Che, he thinks that he is stronger than Zhang Yuan, not to mention his brother Han Yan, and he is the male companion who has played with Liu Che since he was a child.

"Hehe, Han said, you must know that General Ben is still your commander now.

Do you know what it is to question a commander in the army? "Lele Literature

"The last general knows, isn't it even greater that General Kewei is guilty of covering up the holy will of the Son of Heaven?"

"Good! Li Jian took this letter and read it to everyone! ”

What is called pampering and arrogance, Zhang Yuan can be regarded as having seen it.

Sometimes these dogs who only flatter the Lord are really disgusting.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is Your Majesty's question to General Wei about the five-baht coin and the Han coin."

Li Jian didn't read out the contents in the end, he felt that it was not something that these generals should be mixed with.

"How is that possible?"

Han Yan snatched the letter from Li Jian's hand and read it.

"Xue Ren!"

"The last general!"

"Pull Han Yan out, take off his shirt in front of the whole army, and lash fifty!"

"General Wei, isn't it a little too heavy, General Han may not be able to withstand it."

"No more nonsense, you will be punished with him."

"Whoa!"

If you are strong enough to be on the board, you may die.

Fifty lashes are at least the kind where flesh and blood are blurred, and bones can be seen directly, and once it is too late to treat wound infection, it will be death.

Li Shuo was arrested, and Zhang Yuan didn't talk about him.

But this Han Shu also caused trouble again and again, and Zhang Yuan didn't want to take the name of a benevolent and righteous handsome, so if he killed him, he would kill him.

If there is one less such scourge, there will be one less yin and yang person around Liu Che in the future.

"Ahh Yes! Ah.....h

Han Qi's screams directly pierced the entire surrendered city.

However, it did not interfere with Zhang Yuan's mind, and after blasting the others away, Zhang Yuan took out a piece of paper and began to write his own policy.

"Your Majesty has a German voice, and if you want to reform the currency system, it is beyond the reach of the ministers.

The reason why the minister made five baht coins was because of the chaos of my Han coins, the private minting was rampant, and the currency system of each county could not be unified, and the rest of the people's production could only be placed at home or bartered.

His Majesty was benevolent and sympathetic to the suffering of the people, and thought that he should first take back the coinage rights of the princes of each county, and then set up another official office to start the reform of the new currency.

The Shaofu system is dull and chaotic, and His Majesty has not been to Shanglin Yuan for a long time to go to the prosperous age of the Son of Heaven hunting.

The minister thought that the officials of Shanglin Yuan could be removed from the jurisdiction of Shaofu, and the Shui Heng Duwei was set up to take charge of Shanglin Yuan, and then Shanglin, Junyi, Yu Shaming, Forbidden Garden, Ji Hao, Zhong Guan, Skill, Six Stables, Copper and other subordinate officials.

In charge of Shanglin Yuan, he is also the main tax collector, royal fiscal revenue and expenditure, and coinage.

Then the counties can be allowed to destroy the copper coins they had minted before, and the copper obtained will be transported to Shanglin Yuan in Chang'an City.

A new five-baht coin was minted by officials such as Zhong Guan, Debate Copper, and Skill.

The minister was willing to send all the iron smelting workshops and craftsmen under Qingpingfang to Shanglin Yuan, and when the orders of Qingpingfang were settled, the exchange of coins would be completely shut down. ”

Zhang Yuan wrote down all the things he remembered in his mind, and then sealed this document and sent it to Chang'an City urgently.

As for whether Liu Che adopted it in the end, Zhang Yuan couldn't care about it.

After an interval of three days, the wooden box that Liu Che gave to Zhang Yuan arrived in the surrendered city.

As a result, this time, Zhang Yuan did not gather all the generals and officials, for fear that His Majesty the Great Emperor would come up with something else.

When Zhang Yuan opened it in front of the person who delivered the wooden box, he found that it was a letter and an official seal.

Zhang Yuan didn't read the letter first, but looked at the official seal.

'The Seal of the Taifu. ’

......

Zhang Yuan was stunned, a little completely stunned.

As far as he knew, it would be at least more than a hundred years before Dahan regained the official position of Taifu.

The emperors of the Western Han Dynasty were domineering, at least the emperors in the early middle and early periods were very domineering.

Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, would definitely not worship the teacher, but Emperor Hui of the Han Dynasty had the possibility of turning Shangshan Sihao into an emperor, but Empress Lu did not let Emperor Liu Ying of the Han Hui recognize any emperor.

Emperor Wen of Han and Emperor Jing of Han, the father and son, are extremely benevolent and righteous, but in fact, their means are far beyond comparison.

The emperors of the Han Dynasty had a shadow in their hearts, and that was from the Queen Mother.

From Lu Pheasant to Dou Yifang to Wang Huan, it is not a simple goods.

As long as these emperors are not crazy, who is willing to put another obstacle on their heads.

Although the symbolism of the third wife or the fourth assistant is far greater than the actual meaning, but the emperor has to bow when he meets, Liu Che is the first in the world, there is no one in the world, there is no one before and no one after him, and the most bullish person in the world will ask him to bow to you, I am afraid that he will want to kill this person in his heart.

When Zhang Yuan saw the seal of Taifu, he immediately put it back in the wooden box and only took out the edict.

The content of the edict is very simple, that is, the soldiers have worked hard, and you are allowed to return to Chang'an.

Then mentioned the reward for Zhang Yuan, Zhang Yuan's fiefdom was added to 10,000 households, and he became the marquis of 10,000 households.

Then it is to be named Taifu.

After reading the edict, Zhang Yuan was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat.

It occurred to him that if a person wants to perish, he must first make him crazy.

"I already know what Your Majesty means, you go down and rest first."

"Whoa."

Zhang Yuan immediately called Li Jian over.

"General Wei, are you looking for me?"

"Your Majesty sent someone to send an edict, you go down to inform the armies, and start to drive back to Chang'an in the early morning tomorrow."

"Whoa."

Only when I go back to Chang'an can I really see my reward.

Those of them who are alive are excited.

Zhang Yuan had already asked the officials of General Wei's Mansion to start summarizing the exploits of each soldier non-stop.

This time is nearing the end.

Early the next morning, Zhang Yuan found someone to send the statistical battle merit list to the Zhongjun Mansion, and also copied a copy to Wei Qing in Yuyang County.

He is still the Great Sima, commanding the national army, and Zhang Yuan is obliged to do so.

In addition, Zhang Yuan wrote a letter to Liu Che, asking Liu Che to cancel the celebration ceremony, wait until Wei Qing and Gongsun He returned, and celebrate together at the autumn festival.

It can be said that Zhang Yuan is extremely cautious, and as for the position of Taifu, Zhang Yuan plans to wait until he returns to Chang'an.

There were 56,000 cavalry when they came, and when they left the surrendered city, only 20,000 remained.

And everyone still has the smell of all kinds of livestock, which is really miserable.

Zhang Yuan was very sad in his heart, he could bring the army to the battlefield completely, but he couldn't bring them home completely.

Fortunately, the evil king wanted to take refuge in the Han Dynasty, so that Zhang Yuan and the others could bury the bones of the soldiers who died in the battle on the spot.

As for the captured Li Shuo and the disappeared Li Fu, they all became a scar on Zhang Yuan's heart.

Strange to say, Zhang Yuan did not find Li Fu's body among the corpses of the Han soldiers, but it is not possible to determine whether the number of dead exceeded 2,000, and they were all scattered during the first day of fighting.

In the vast prairie, it is normal to lose your way.

Zhang Yuan only hoped that those who had disappeared would return to Dahan alive.
