Chapter 365 Crossing the river and demolishing the bridge

Half a month after Jiang Shu's farewell, he rushed to Longya Mountain again, and it was already the end of February.

Jiang Shou took the conferral issued by Yang Yuanpu, the king of Tan, in the name of the Xingshang Book Order this time.

Xue Ruogu, Tian Cheng, Zheng Tong and others also carried the bronze seal of the assassin history that Han Daoxun left in the state government on the eve of his appointment in Jinling, and after meeting Jiang Shu from Qianyang, they rushed to Longya Mountain to meet Han Qian.

Han Qian stood with his hands in his hands, looking at the lacquer plate held by the guards and the bronze seal the size of the palm of his hand with a purple ribbon tied on his nose, and was silent.

Tian Cheng, Feng Yi, Gao Shao and the others stared at the small copper seal, but their eyes were shining, this time the name of the Xuzhou Assassin was determined, and the worries they had been worried about for a long time finally fell to the ground.

Han Daoxun's death caused Tian Cheng, Gao Shao and others to feel both grief and extreme disappointment in the current world.

This also makes their inner desire for Xuzhou to be self-reliant, in fact, as strong as Feng Yi, Feng Yi, Kong Xirong and others, who suffered from unprovoked disasters and the death of their fathers.

Whether it is the bloody lesson of the Feng family, or the fact that they have been following Han Qian's side over the years, they are mostly limited by the Xinchang Marquis Mansion, which makes them think in their hearts that only Xuzhou can not be controlled by others, and under the current chaotic and bloody world, the family and relatives can be better preserved and continued.

Otherwise, the slightest mistake will be doomed.

Feng Yi experienced the disaster of the Feng family and was heartbroken, and the lives experienced by Tian Cheng and Gao Shao were even more bumpy and tortuous than Feng Yi.

However, the population base of Xuzhou is too small, and the local people of Chenjing Sichongying and other states around are extremely powerful, because the local surname forces in Xuzhou were ruthlessly suppressed by Han Qian before, so that they are full of vigilance against Xuzhou at this time.

The cloth iron produced in Xuzhou must be transported out for sale in order to exchange for other resources and attract more people to migrate over.

The official awarding of Han Qian's position as an assassin by Xingshangshu Province is undoubtedly the result that Tian Cheng, Feng Yi, Gao Shao and others are most happy to see.

It was said before that the first emperor intended to let the Han family take the post of Xuzhou assassin, but after all, it was an ethereal rumor that lacked factual basis, and no official documents remained.

Not to mention in the state of Chu, it is difficult for this kind of rumor to be widely recognized within Xuzhou.

Today, after his father Han Daoxun, Han Qian officially took over the history of Xuzhou, and after the fact that father and son successively succeeded, he could truly form the righteous name of the Han family to lead Xuzhou.

In this way, Xuzhou can almost be said to be self-contained at no cost, and there is no need to look at the faces of others.

At this time, even though the head of the family, Han Daoxun, was sentenced to death for a short time, Tian Cheng, Feng Yi, Gao Shao and others were excited and excited in their hearts.

If it weren't for Jiang Xu, Xue Ruogu and others present, they would have been eager to change their words to Han Qian and call him "Lord Gong".

Jiang Shu, who took the official to climb Longya Mountain again, was much more complicated than Tian Cheng and Feng Yi.

He knew better why the new appointment of the Xuzhou assassin was so quick to come to power.

His Royal Highness and Shen Yang didn't want Han Qian to stay in Longya Mountain to serve his filial piety and not ask about the world, and they didn't want Ding Wei to mourn and become an excuse for the concubine and the Zheng family and the Xinchang Marquis Mansion to exclude Han Qian from the core of Yueyang.

And Zheng Yu and the others acquiesced in this matter, on the one hand, Xuzhou was already in Han Qian's actual hands, on the other hand, they couldn't guess Han Qian's thoughts, and they intended to tie Han Qian to Xuzhou along the river, making it difficult to directly intervene in Yueyang's affairs.

Jiang Yu couldn't guess Han Qian's thoughts, and he didn't know what choice he would make after receiving this edict, whether he felt the urgent need of His Royal Highness and Shen Yang for him, and could temporarily put aside the grief of losing his father and plan for His Highness, or did he push the boat along the river, follow the intentions of Zheng and others, and really hide in this place of mountains and rivers after separating Xuzhou, and stand by to watch the rights and wrongs outside Xuzhou?

Xue Ruogu's mood was even more complicated.

Since the Qin and Han dynasties, the Central Plains Dynasty has never stopped conquering and naturalizing the southwest, and it took thousands of years to form a situation in Chenxu and other prefectures where Han people live together, and liuguan and local officials stand side by side.

During Han Daoxun's reign in Xuzhou, he even saw the dawn of hope that the two states of Chenxu would be completely naturalized and incorporated into the territory of Great Chu.

However, Han Qian's son inherited his father's business this time, accepted the history of Xuzhou's assassination, and formed the fact that he was the leader of Xuzhou, and Xue Ruogu couldn't say that this was a regression.

After all, before Han Daoxun ruled Xuzhou, in addition to the position of assassin in Xuzhou, many core official positions were hereditarily controlled by the forces of the native surnames, and the cause of death of the predecessor assassin was so suspicious that the imperial court had no mind or ability to pursue it at all.

Not to mention Sizhou, Jingzhou, Yingzhou, Yunzhou, and the county, which is in the hinterland of Qianzhong's ancient county, even Chenzhou, which is closer to the hinterland of the Dongting Lake Plain, the hereditary power of the Chenzhou Xi clan led by Xiying has been further strengthened than before the war to cut the domain.

It is precisely because of the tradition and foundation of hereditary replacement in Chenxu Prefectures that Han Qian inherited his father Han Daoxun to take over Xuzhou, and the fact that the Han family led Xuzhou did not encounter strong obstacles and opposition.

Even this is taken for granted to a certain extent, and many people think in their hearts that this can stabilize the situation in the southwest, so as not to make the warlike people and soldiers in the southwest become a threat and hidden danger to the Great Chu Dynasty.

"Your Royal Highness consulted with all the adults, and they all said that with the ability of Lord Han, governing Xuzhou is just a small Shuer, in order to facilitate Xuzhou to make more efforts to quell the rebellion, Xuzhou has since the history of assassination, and the appointment of the county Cao Department official Zuo Zhi is also recommended by Lord Han." Jiang Shu also said that Han Qian was appointed as the assassin of Xuzhou, which will not be confirmed by official documents for the time being, but Jiang Xu brought this sentence on behalf of Yang Yuanpu and Shen Yang, which means that Han Qian will get their full support when recommending the officials and generals of Xuzhou.

Han Qian held the right to recommend the officials and generals of Xuzhou, which was actually the basis for further determining the power base of the Han family to lead Xuzhou.

Xue Ruogu secretly wondered what Han Qian would do next to consolidate his power in Xuzhou, but he didn't want Han Qian to slowly turn around at this time, look at him, and ask, "Does Lord Xue no longer have the intention of staying in Xuzhou to serve his life?" ”

Xue Ruogu stared at Han Qian in disbelief, he never thought that Han Qian would cross the river and tear down the bridge so soon, and he would be expelled directly from Xuzhou.

Han Qian ignored Xue Ruogu's shock, and said to Jiang Xu: "Xuzhou officials and generals, how to adjust, I stayed in Longya City to mourn, and I really didn't have the heart to think about it, but Lord Xue Ruogu, Lord Li Tang, Lord Li, and Lord Qin Wen Qin are all talented, or they can be used by His Highness, but I recommend them to serve by His Highness's side, or they can solve problems for His Highness!" ”

Han Daoxun and Han Qian confused the Ma family with the momentum of separating Xuzhou, Xue Ruogu, Li Tang, and Qin Wen almost broke with the Han family's father and son, these things Jiang Shu knew in his heart, but he didn't expect Han Qian to give Xuzhou the history of assassination, and the first step was to expel these three people from Xuzhou?

"This, this, this," Jiang Shu is over fifty years old, and he has experienced ups and downs for half his life, and at this moment he was a little stumbling when he spoke, and it was difficult to suppress the turmoil in his heart, Han Qian took Xuzhou as his own, and from then on, he thought of running Xuzhou, and no longer paid attention to the rights and wrongs of Yueyang, how could His Royal Highness deal with himself?

Could it be that Han Qian sent the county lord of Qingyang to Yueyang City, just as a pawn and bargaining chip to force the Zheng family and the concubine to back down in this matter?

"His Royal Highness's appointment to Xuzhou Assassination History is a great trust in Lord Han, and he expects Lord Han to plan for the rebellious matter," Xue Ruogu's face turned red, and he couldn't help but argue, "Lord Han is alive, he is diligent in government and loves the people, and he is also brutally punished for the struggle for a glimmer of life in the Great Chu Society, Ruogu does not ask Lord Han to continue the legacy of Lord Han, but also asks Lord Han not to cross the river and tear down the bridge so soon!" ”

"What is crossing a river and demolishing a bridge? Isn't my intention to stay in Longya Mountain to guard the tomb and mourn clearly enough? Your Highness treats me sincerely, I have filial piety, and I can't be loyal to His Highness, please Lord Xue you do it for you, why is it to cross the river and tear down the bridge? Han Qian stared at Xue Ruogu's pupils and asked, "Besides, my father has his way of life, I have my way of life, is it possible that my father can't get out of a dead end in his life, and I still have to plunge into it?" ”

Seeing that Han Qian had spoken to this extent, Xue Ruogu was speechless, and secretly said that this world owes Han Daoxun too much, Han Qian was disheartened and determined to pass through Xuzhou, who can say that he is not?

"Lord Han insists on this, and Xue has nothing to say, so he will stop bothering Lord Han, and he will send someone to send his resignation to the mountain tomorrow." Xue Ruogu arched his hand towards Han Qian, and then went down the mountain with two entourages with a gloomy expression.

"I also have to rush back to Yueyang and report to His Highness." Jiang Xu originally had a full stomach of words, thinking of telling Han Qian about the complicated situation of Yue Yang in the past month, and asking him to give advice to His Highness, but at this time, he couldn't spit out the words full of stomachs, so he could only leave and leave first.

"You go back and tell Your Highness that Your Highness will give Han Qian with Xuzhou, and Han Qian will not disappoint Your Highness," Han Qian said to Jiang Xu, "The current situation in Jinling should change within a month, Chuzhou is strong in soldiers and horses, and it will definitely be able to thwart the rebels of Anning Palace, and then the attitude of the concubine, Li Houye, and the Zheng family will change, please Your Highness should be a little calm at this time, in addition, Xue Ruogu, Li Tang, and Qin Wen are straightforward in nature, sharpened, and can rest assured to stay by their side and appoint." ”

Jiang Shu was slightly stunned, and then bowed to Han Qian with great joy, thinking to himself, His Royal Highness has generously called the Han family to lead Xuzhou, how to run it and how to take it for himself is Han Qian's own business, the Zheng family and Han Daoming They think so, they will only relax their vigilance against Han Qian, and he is reluctant to give up for His Royal Highness, isn't he in love?

At present, Han Qian is a little impatient and ruthless to expel Xue Ruogu and others from Xuzhou in order to divide Xuzhou and consolidate his power, but from another point of view, Han Qian is temporarily inconvenient to come out, and His Royal Highness is not in urgent need of Xue Ruogu and other ministers by nature?

Otherwise, if Xue Ruogu and them contain Han Qian in Xuzhou, wouldn't they be full of food and support?
