Zhou Nan didn't explain to everyone first, and then arranged, "Fourth Brother Zuo and his Eagle Guards are scattered everywhere and are responsible for transmitting messages. In the future, anyone who is not from the Eagle Guard can ignore it. The transmission of messages with Yanjing was also done by the Eagle Guards, but by the Eagle Guards who stayed in Xianghe. ”

  Zuo Xiaosi also hurriedly stood up and agreed.

  Zhou Nan finally said, "The matter of leading the troops to fight is discussed by Brother Gao and Brother Yang, that is, three things: get rid of Zhang Jun, recover Pingzhou Road, and guard Yuguan." The last thing is particularly important, even if you can't recover Pingzhou Road, you must hold Yuguan first. ”

  Yang Keshi understood and said, "Don't worry, Dalang." Yuguan is a place where the Jin army must invade, if you can't hold Yuguan steadily, it is not interesting to recover Pingzhou Road; If we hold Yuguan steadily, the remaining states and counties that have not been recovered will be recovered by ourselves, and we will recover them when we want, and we will not be able to turn the sky. But what is the truth? ”

  "Exactly!" Zhou Nan smiled and nodded, "Since you all understand, I'm relieved." ”

  "We are not at ease with your arrangement." Gao Yuan said dissatisfiedly, "You don't go with us to Pingzhou, and you don't go to Zunhua City, where are you going?" ”

  "I won't hide it from you," Zhou Nan said, "the emperor of the Southern Dynasty asked me to bring a craftsman who made a car to Tokyo a few days ago to make a treasure car for him, and I reasoned that the snow is very difficult; Now the emperor of the Southern Dynasty was unwilling, and even sent a letter again, but this time he said that Yanjing's return to the Great Song Dynasty was a major event celebrated by the whole world, and he had already wished the first emperor, and said that he wanted all vassal states to send people to participate in the Shangyuan Festival, and the monarchs and ministers congratulated together. This time I couldn't shirk it, so I had to go once. ”

  "The Shangyuan Festival is only three days in total, fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, those distant vassal countries, I am afraid that after receiving the national letter, people have not yet left, the Shangyuan Festival has passed, where can I catch up? Not to mention the congratulatory congratulations of the monarchs and ministers. There will be deception in it. Li Shi first said that since he was cast under Zhou Nan's account, Li Shi felt more and more that Zhou Nan was kind and tolerant, and he thought that Zhou Nan was more attentive to doing things.

  "Shangyuan is supposed to be three days, yes. But this time, in order to celebrate with the whole world, the Southern Dynasty made a lot of money. In order to celebrate this ceremony, the Southern Dynasty specially decreed that this year's Shangyuan Festival starts from Shangyuan Day and ends at the end of the first month, it is the Shangyuan Festival, and the officials of the whole country have a holiday, and the people all go to the market to play and play, and all the songs and dances are performed on the street every day. Local governments have to pay for decorating lanterns and flags to celebrate. Zhou Nan explained helplessly. If it weren't for the extension of the Shangyuan Festival, he could have said that he wouldn't go, but the Southern Dynasty actually changed the rules for this, and if he still couldn't shirk it, I'm afraid there would be trouble next.

  Zhou Nan didn't take those armies of the Southern Dynasty to heart, but now that Pingzhou has not been recovered, the Jin army may kill them at any time. That's why Zhou Nan decided to take a trip to Tokyo.

  "I see." Li Shi didn't know about the "grievances and hatreds" between Zhou Nan and the Southern Dynasties in the past, so he didn't say anything anymore.

  "Da Lang, you tied up the three princes in Xiongzhou a few years ago, and now the Southern Dynasty wants you to go twice, although it is to participate in the celebration of the Shangyuan Festival, but I always feel that you should be wary of the three princes. Maybe this incident was instigated by him behind the scenes. So that you can leave Yanjing, leave Wanshengjun, and when you arrive in Tokyo, it will be the tiger falling in Pingyang and being bullied by dogs. Gao Yuan said worriedly.

  "That's right! When King Yun left, it didn't look like he had reconciled with you! Yang Keshi also reminded.

  "You must still remember that the Southern Dynasty was able to release the detained people, was willing to reconcile with us, and gave Merlin a place, in addition to our hard fists and bowed horses, and the other is thanks to the prince and the third prince fighting openly and secretly, helping me, and the Southern Dynasty emperor and the princess Yu Min and others in the Hanlin Courtyard met and secretly exchanged news, which led to the current situation."

  Zhou Nan looked at everyone and said, "This time I was invited to go, not only with the official state letter, but also with the emperor of the Southern Dynasty and the crown prince. The national letter is invited, and the stakes are naturally different from those invited by the prince and the emperor. The prince of the Southern Dynasty was a loyal man, not a treacherous person. Don't bother to be careful. ”

  Gao Yuan saw that Zhou Nan had made up his mind, so he said, "Did the princess know about this?" ”

  Zhou Nan replied, "The princess and Yun'er both know that this invitation was transferred by the princess. ”

  Gao Yuan asked strangely, "The princess didn't dissuade you?" ”

  "Nope." Zhou Nan shook his head.

  "Then how many soldiers and horses do you have to bring with you to Tokyo in the southern court?" Takato asked with concern.

  "You don't have to bring more, you have to bring more, and the Southern Dynasty is afraid that it will not let you pass. I'll know to bring Brother Fu's Eagle Guard. With the addition of Brother Fu and me, there are eight of them. Enough is enough. Zhou Nan replied.

  "That's too little!" Yang Keshi exclaimed, "The people of the Southern Dynasty are treacherous and untrustworthy, and they go back on their word. Dalang, you still have to bring a few soldiers and horses, even if you can't enter the city of Tokyo in the Southern Dynasty, you can ambush outside the city, so that you can meet Dalang at any time. "Yang Keshi's own father was arrested by the three princes of the Great Song Dynasty, so naturally he didn't have a good impression of the Southern Dynasty, and every time he said it, he hated it to the core.

  "No matter how many people and horses you bring with you, there will always be more soldiers and horses from the Southern Dynasties, and if they are discovered at that time, it will not be good." Zhou Nan politely refused and said, "I took Brother Fu and seven others with me as my entourage." In addition, put my pro-army in Guiyi City Jia Lao Liu, if there is something, it can also come in handy. That's enough. ”

  "When are you leaving?" Yang Keshi couldn't persuade Zhou Nan either, and asked about Zhou Nan's itinerary again.

  "You will lead the troops eastward tomorrow, and I will rush back to Yanjing City tomorrow first, and discuss some things with the princess and Yun'er first, there are many things, after I go, I still have to do it in a hurry." Zhou Nan said, "Li Hanlin, work hard tonight, transcribe the land decree and the decree of the general supervisor, and when I go to Yanjing tomorrow, I can take it to the princess and her Hanlin Academy for inspection, if there is no need to supplement or modify, I must hurry up and implement it." ”

  "Yes, I will copy it overnight tonight, and I will send it to the horse early tomorrow morning, and there will be no delay." Li Shi said.

  "And you," Zhou Nan pointed at Gao Yuan, Yang Keshi and others with his hand, "I went to Nanchao Tokyo this time, and I didn't dare to forget you." Before leaving, I will explain to Yun'er, let her go back to the cottage, hurry up, and send it to you as soon as possible. ”

  "Exploding arrows?" Gao Yuan asked with a twinkle in his eyes.

  "It's not an explosive arrow," Zhou Nan shook his head with a smile, seeing Gao Yuan's disappointed face, he then said, "But compared to explosive arrows, it's ten times more powerful!" "I like Song Chungui, please collect x Song Chungui.
