Malu, after an almost barbaric expansion, has built four walls. With the addition of the original inner and outer cities, it is now considered to be two laps long. And with the construction of the stone bridge across the river, the land on the other side of the river was quickly incorporated into the urban area.

The Murghab River, too, has truly become the inland river of Malu.

The towns and villages that were originally scattered around Malu were also connected to the city under the expansion of Malu City. The famous Avenue of the Mir, after being renamed the Avenue of Khorasan, has become the central axis running through the city of Malu, stretching for nearly 100 miles.

The road is full of rows of shops, and the prosperous scenery is breathtaking. Many businessmen who had just set foot on the land of Malu couldn't believe their eyes.

At this time, Wang Yinzhi, the former direct scholar of the Privy Council of Southern Liaoning, Shi Moterlie, the former commander of the Guards Division of the former Great Liao, and several people accompanying him, rode in a carriage and slowly approached the triumphal arch of Malu.

This is the northernmost gate of the city of Maru, just on the edge of the desert. Except for a tall and imposing gate, there is only a row of symbolic low earthen walls on either side. It is also a long distance away from the prosperous urban area.

A battalion of border troops is stationed here and is responsible for maintaining peace and stability here. There are some houses inside and outside the city gates, which are relatively low and not many in number. Therefore, the significance of the border army here is more symbolic than practical.

"May I ask in the car, is Mr. Shi Mo sitting?" Rabi Lasi waited outside the city gate and came up to meet the way.

In Malu, the honorific title of sir refers to a person who has read books and is learned. This spread with the construction of a series of schools. It is said that the earliest came from the mouth of the king.

Up to now, Mr. has become a good name for people.

Judging from the fact that Shi Mo Terlie was once a great Liao official, knowledge is indispensable. Therefore, the honorific title of Mr. is just right.

"It's Shi Mo Min'an below, I don't know who Your Excellency is?" , because he has served as a special horse for so long, many people have forgotten his real name. As a result, it has become a habit to be commensurate with Stone Charm.

Now that he has stepped down from his official position, the word "Lie" is no longer appropriate.

"Below is the secretary of the Khorasan State Guard Division, Rabi Rasi, who has come here to greet Mr. by order of the king." , caught a glimpse of other people in the carriage, and saluted separately.

"Then there's a labor officer!" , Shi Mo Min returned the salute and said softly.

Since receiving the letter of invitation from Li Shichang, he immediately set off for the south. and invited Wang Yinzhi and them over. There are also some old friends, who are also on the way south.

It is also the sunset atmosphere of Daliao, which has been undoubtedly demonstrated. Those of them who are officials in Daliao can naturally see it clearly. Coupled with the fact that Yeluzi was being excluded from the court, they were either demoted or dismissed.

The national fortunes of Da Liao are becoming more and more disheartened.

Faced with the invitation of Li Shichang, the old master, they did not hesitate much and took the initiative to invite.

This is naturally a great joy for Li Chengji. Because with the further expansion of the Khorasan state, the newly incorporated territory is in urgent need of human governance. The surrender of the old ministers of Da Liao just filled this gap.

Although Shi Mo Min'an came to Malu in the name of them, they only visited Li Shichang. But in fact, each is clear about each other's purposes. Moreover, Li Chengji believes that his father's ability will definitely allow Shi Mo to calm them down and serve the Khorasan country.

So in terms of face, Li Chengji also tried his best to give enough.

Then Rabi Rasi led the way and led the people to the Holy Palace.

Along the way, although Shi Mo Ming'an had seen the prosperity of the two cities of Xun Sigan and Puhua, he was still surprised by the prosperity of Malu City. In particular, the straight and wide Avenue of the Emir and the four city gates passing through in a row gave them a subversive understanding of the vastness of Malu City.

And they also noticed that outside the fourth wall, there were large rows of houses. The prototype of some street markets has also revealed its scale. Therefore, it is foreseeable that the urban area is still expanding outward.

And the fourth city wall was also built very briefly. The strong foundation is the sand and gravel at the bottom of the river, which is not reliable. And the walls are also very thin, only two feet wide. In terms of height, it is only more than one zhang.

To tell the truth, such a wall can't even compare to the courtyards of many people's homes.

But this shocked Shi Mo Ming'an and them!

Because such an undefended city revealed the confidence of the Kingdom of Khorasan. And the expansion of the urban area also shows the rapid rise of the national power of Khorasan.

Just when they were in a deep shock to the city of Maru, inside the Holy Palace. Zhang Timing, Al Zimi, Ali Bura, Flat, Guo Huai and other chief officials or secretaries all gathered together. Li Chengji sat at the top with a wry smile on his face.

Because of Zhang Timing, they got together, not for anything else, but to prevent him from going south to sacrifice the army.

"Lord of the Kingdom! Since ancient times, the son of a thousand gold cannot sit down, the son of a hundred gold does not ride the balance, and the holy lord does not take advantage of the danger and get lucky. The land of Gur is in chaos, and it is not suitable to come in person! David Gurion said bitterly, as if Li Chengji did not agree, he was ready to die.

Of course, with Lee Seungji's understanding of David Gurion, he will definitely not have the courage to die. And this allusion from the Han Dynasty will not be understood by David Gurion, a Jew who is bent on money.

So, apparently, someone taught David Gurion to say it.

Looking at the sweat on his forehead and his dodging gaze, Li Chengji was even more sure of his guess.

Then he said loudly: "This time I went south to reward the three armies." Secretary David, how can he be so unreasonable! When Li Chengji said this, his tone was a little serious.

David Gurion, who has long compared himself to a dog of Lee Seung-ji, immediately turned pale. His body was also shaking like chaff, and he trembled violently. In the end, he understood that his status today was rewarded by Li Chengji. And his family's interests are also too deeply entangled with the Li firm.

Especially when guarding the fat gap of the Treasury Division has caused many people to be greedy. He could only desperately hug Li Chengji's thighs so that he could sit more securely. When facing Li Chengji, it is difficult to have confidence.

Today, if it were not for the other chiefs and ministers, they would threaten him together. I can't say it, he won't even set foot at the palace gate.

Then he trembled and responded: "Minister-minister---."

Zhang Timing on the side saw that he was so unbearable, and immediately glanced at Guo Huai. Seeing him take a step forward, he hurriedly said: "The status of the lord of the country is noble, and he should sit in Malu." The matter of rewarding the three armies only requires one will. ”。

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

A series of echoing voices echoed in the main hall, obviously negotiated a long time ago.
