The fire candle was beeping and burning, Han Qian was thinking wildly, the hall was too quiet, so quiet that he seemed to be faintly hearing the sound of his heartbeat, Shen He thought to himself that he had been by His Majesty's side for so many years, and he had really never seen such a depressing scene a few times.

It's just that seeing that Han Qian can calm down under His Majesty's tiger gaze, Shen He was also secretly shocked.

After a long time, Yang Mi still stared at Han Qian unwillingly and asked:

"Xuzhou is in the southwest of Tanzhou, and the widow regards Tanzhou as a trouble, so you don't have a little panic in your heart?"

Han Qian saw that Yang Mi Lao'er turned the topic to Xuzhou, his scalp was secretly numb, and his heart suddenly became vigilant, and said: "What Your Majesty thinks about is the foundation of Dachu for ten thousand years, and where should Xuzhou go in this storm, Your Majesty has its own considerations, and Weichen is stupid, and everything is only known to Your Majesty and His Royal Highness, so there is no panic in my heart." ”

"Shen He, you said that people are young, but what you do and what you say, you don't leak, you have decades of skill!" Yang Mi forked out, glanced at Shen He and said.

"The old slave has been by His Majesty's side for all these years, and he has no ability, so he will only say something nice to make His Majesty comfortable, Your Majesty should not laugh at the old slave." Shen He replied with a smile.

Yang Mi's words only diverged from Shen He's body for a while, and then he turned his head to stare at Han Qian and asked: "After Xuzhou lifted the land ban, more than 2,000 soldiers in Tanzhou pretended to be homeless people and entered Xuzhou to build a village, to say that your father and son are so shrewd, it is impossible not to be unaware, but to say that your father and son have already noticed it, how can you not be frightened at this time?" ”

Han Qian didn't look up, he could also feel that Tianyou Lao'er's eyes were as sharp as knives, and he felt a chill rushing up from the tail vertebrae, kowtowed and said: "Tanzhou soldiers secretly entered Xuzhou, not only did I already notice it, I even suggested that my father deliberately connived, first, Xuzhou's wealth and goods want to enter Jinling, you need to go to Tanzhou, you can't evil Tanzhou, the second is that Xuzhou is strong and weak, the former assassin Wang Yu is really poisoned by the local wealthy family, my father don't say that it is all gone, it is difficult to even gain a foothold, so he can only take the risk of driving the tiger and devouring the wolf, but, My father and son and Tanzhou are really dedicated to His Royal Highness and for the sake of the Great Chu Society, and they have no intention of colluding with Tanzhou. ”

Yang Yuanpu thought that Han Qian would push this matter on him, he was sitting on the side and was making up a confession, but he didn't expect Han Qian to take this matter alone.

Yang Yuanpu was secretly frightened, he didn't know why Han Qian said this, could it be that the crime of colluding with Tanzhou in private could be explained clearly in front of his father in a few words?

Shen He saw the reaction of the three princes in his eyes, and smiled in his heart, the third highness is a little younger, no matter how young he is, he is also the most easily deceived age, how can he know all the thoughts of being a courtier?

Shen He set his eyes on Han Qian again, thinking that this kid probably wouldn't kowtow twice, and the collusion between his father and son and Tanzhou would just pass, right?

"Xuzhou's territory is a little bigger, even if your Han family leads the history of Xuzhou, but you need to know that Xuzhou can't become the elbow of the imperial court to solve the problem of Tanzhou!" Yang Mi circled for a long time, and also lost patience, and directly spread out the hole cards and said.

Hearing His Majesty say this, Shen He almost threw the dust in his hand to the ground again.

What the?

Did you hear it wrong, Your Majesty did not investigate the collusion between the Han family father and son and Tanzhou, and rewarded Xuzhou to Han Daoxun and Han Qian's father and son?

Even if it is taboo for Han Daoxun to be in Xuzhou, how can Han Daoxun, Han Qian's father and son, dare to receive the hereditary reward of Xuzhou's assassination history?

"Wechen would never dare to have such a delusion." Han Qian scolded in his heart to buy a horse, but he was worried that Tianyou Lao'er's suspicion would really burn and he might cut off his head, so he kowtowed his head "bang bang" to show his loyalty.

"There are no more than 10,000 households in Xuzhou, and the four surnames are hereditary, not to mention that Dachu has been founded for many years, even the previous dynasty could not get a grain or grain from Xuzhou. And Xuzhou to the west and south

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

All of them are in the state of bondage, and the positions of assassin history are all hereditary, but they are only nominally subordinate to the imperial court. If Xuzhou can be ruled by someone trusted by my Great Chu forever, why not? Yang Mi said, "Xuzhou and Tanzhou are more important, and the widows can still distinguish clearly." ”

Shen He couldn't help but look at His Majesty in surprise, he couldn't hear that His Majesty's words meant to test Han Qian, and thought to himself, Could it be that Your Majesty is really crazy and wants to give Xuzhou to the Han family's father and son?

However, Shen He thought about His Majesty's words and made sense.

The three prefectures of Tanlangyue occupy the essence of the coast of Dongting Lake, with a population of more than 200,000 households in the last years of the previous dynasty, and with the destruction of the Jingxiang area by the war, a large number of people fled south of the Yangtze River, and the population of Tanzhou at this time will only be more than less.

The total number of Tukka people in Xuzhou is more than 12,000 households, and the population is only one-twentieth of the three prefectures of Tanlangyue.

More crucially, for a long time, Xuzhou, and even Chenzhou, which is closer to the Dongting Lake area to the north, was hereditary controlled by local clans; Upstream from Xuzhou along the Yuanshui, it is the ancient county of Qianzhong, and the county of Jianzhou and the county of Zhishi are all hereditary local wealthy families, and they have never been really controlled by the central government.

Not to mention Qianzhong County, Feng Changyu and others, with only one or two thousand people under their rule, dared to poison the former assassin Wang Lu, and even tried in vain to set off a state prison riot to kill the new assassin and massacre the guest forces in Qianyang City, which shows how weak their awe of the Great Chu court is.

Xuzhou is poor and bad, the road is dangerous, and it is a barbarian land, if it is at the expense of Xuzhou, in exchange for the absolute control of the imperial court over the Dongting Lake area such as Tanlangyue Sanzhou, it will naturally be a big deal.

Just handing over Xuzhou to the Han family father and son, can it really solve the problem of Tanzhou smoothly? Shen He was deeply suspicious of this, and at this time, he couldn't figure out what His Majesty was thinking in his heart.

At this point, Han Qian had penetrated the mind of Tianyou Lao'er, and he shouted and said:

"Wechen will never dare to have this delusion, if Your Majesty thinks that Xuzhou can be used to contain Tanzhou, Wechen dares to ask Your Majesty to give Xuzhou a feudal domain to His Highness, and Wechen is willing to go to Xuzhou to seek it for His Highness!"

Shen He saw a glimmer of essence in His Majesty's eyes at this time, and he was shocked, could it be that His Majesty's mind was this?

"It's not realistic to give Xuzhou to Pu'er, and those native households are willing to hand over their land and Dingkou?" Yang Mi shook his head lightly and said disdainfully.

"Please Your Majesty Xu Weichen for His Highness!" Han Qian figured out the context of Tianyou Lao'er, his mind relaxed, and he knelt down slightly and said.

"Say it." Yang Mi didn't give another seat, but asked Han Qian to kneel on the ground and said.

"If there is pen and ink, Weichen can speak more thoroughly." Han Qian said.

Yang Mi glanced at Shen He, Shen He understood, took pen and ink from the imperial case, and spread a piece of snow-white rice paper on the brick floor in front of Han Qian.

Han Qian knelt on the map, and with a few strokes, he concisely outlined the flow of Xuzhou and Chenzhou, as well as Xuefeng Mountain, Wuling Mountain and Yuanshui, and sketched the bottom of the zigzag of Yuanshui in Xuzhou, and said: "At this time, Xuzhou only placed three counties of Qianyang, Langxi and Tanyang, among which Qianyang is the most easy terrain, standing between the water, and the fertile soil is a hundred miles away, which is also the most essence of Xuzhou, which was originally controlled by the Feng family and the Xi family. After the Feng clan defeated the Xi clan, they were afraid to wash the surname Yang San, and only expelled the Xi clan, but did not take the land of the Xi clan and let it be barren, because the northern part of Qianyang County was even more desolate and sparsely populated. If Your Majesty thinks that it is a little hasty to give the capital of Xuzhou to His Highness, you can separate the northern part of Qianyang and place a new county as His Royal Highness's domain! ”

"What's so special about this barren mountain range?" Yang Mi asked noncommittally.

Han Qian said: "This is Longya Mountain, where the old Xi Village is located, Longya Mountain is connected to Chenyang County in Chenzhou in the north and Qianyang in the south, which is the central point of Chenxu Prefecture. Yuanshui is in the territory of Xuchen two states, and is subject to

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

The mountain is forced, there are many bends, the previous dynasty had opened a post road through Longya Mountain, fifty miles to the south and north, and then it was able to mortgage the bank of the Yuanshui River. The north of Longya Mountain belongs to Chenyang County, Chenzhou, not to mention for the time being, the south of Longya Mountain, formerly known as Yushu Bay, has not been well developed, at this time the vast majority of them are ownerless barren beaches, even if there are more than a dozen small villages, but they will never dare to disobey His Majesty's imperial decree. His Royal Highness took it, built canals and embankments, and channeled streams and rivers, and in three or five years, he could get two or three thousand hectares of fertile and fertile land, which could be the foundation of the county. When the time comes, His Royal Highness will command the elite of the Dragon Sparrow Army, and he will be able to capture the Ma family and present it in front of His Majesty's case! ”

"Under the persecution of the mountains and mountains, only a corner of Xuzhou can treat two or three thousand hectares of grain fields, so it may not be that no one has cultivated them in the past?" Yang Mi asked with interest.

Shen He was also slightly surprised.

One acre of 100 acres, two or three thousand acres is 200,000 acres.

At present, the secret agents sent by the Inner Government Bureau have learned all aspects of the situation in Xuzhou, but the information collected does not mention at all that the southern part of Longya Mountain, that is, the bottom of the Yuanshui zigzag Dawan, can reclaim so many grain fields.

Junzhou is also a land with many mountains and little land, but after all, it is a state land, and it is located on the edge of the Nanyang Basin, and it is planned to reclaim 560,000 mu of grain fields in Danjiang and Hanshui, and there is no problem in relocating tens of thousands of soldiers.

At this time, Han Qian said that in a corner of Xuzhou, where the terrain is more dangerous than Junzhou, two or three hundred thousand mu of grain fields can be reclaimed, Shen He didn't believe it, and thought to himself that if it was so easy, the previous dynasty actively promoted the relocation of people to Xuzhou for three or four hundred years, but it has not been able to completely bring Xuzhou under its rule, isn't it too stupid and incompetent?

"Longya Mountain is the old village of the Xi family, when the Xi family is based, in addition to closing and self-defense, it is forbidden for the guest to live under the mountain, which is also; It is special in this place of the stream, in addition to the Yuanshui in the summer and autumn when the water rises greatly, there are two big streams on the two wings of Longya Mountain to the south into the Yuanshui, these two big streams are actually suspended above the bay, especially in the Wuliu River where Xuefeng Mountain and Longya Mountain intersect, compared with the low-lying place of the bay hanging thirty or forty meters high, the water potential rises slightly in summer and autumn, the river overflows the river, and the barren beaches in the bay are all impacted, resulting in the flood of Yushu Bay, and it is difficult for people and animals to survive - if the Wuliu River can be tamed, the bay is full of grain fields. Han Qian said.

"You've been to Xuzhou once, and you know a lot!" Yang Mi said with emotion.

"Weichen went to Xuzhou with his father, and got a female slave who was the daughter of the Xi family, and after Han Qian took it under his command, he secretly collected the Xi clan people who were dispersed by the Feng family, so that he could resist the four surnamed Haoqiang in Xuzhou, so he knew more about the situation in Longya Mountain." Han Qian thought that Tianyou Lao'er knew that Tanzhou secretly sent troops to infiltrate Xuzhou, and the people of the Xi clan who secretly collected him should not be able to hide it, so he simply admitted it.

"From this point of view, there are indeed some possibilities for the new reclamation of two or three hundred thousand acres of grain fields in that place?" Yang Mi asked, "It's just that I can't wait for three or five years, and I can't startle the snake in everything, and Xuzhou is south of Tanzhou, if I use you, how should I do it?" ”

Shen He glanced at Han Qian, thinking that if a corner of Xuzhou could really reclaim two or three hundred thousand mu of grain fields, it would have been able to barely settle five or six thousand soldiers, and the total number of native people in Xuzhou was more than 6,000 households.

However, Tanzhou is not a fool, and it is impossible for Han Qian to take five or six thousand households and thirty or forty thousand people from Tanzhou to take the road and take root in Xuzhou, especially when Xuzhou has already attracted thirty or forty thousand displaced people.

"Your Majesty can use the strategy of hiding from the sky and crossing the sea to belittle the people of the Feng clan in Xuzhou, as long as Xuzhou can secretly gather two or three thousand elites within a year, Weichen can send troops from Xuzhou to help His Majesty contain Tanzhou......" Han Qian thought that if he didn't die, he would have to take a risk, so he said boldly.
