Although in this way, there are three divisions to go through. It also seems troublesome to deal with. However, the deputy secretary of the chamberlain, Rabi Rasi, also serves as the deputy secretary of the inspection department. Neither the Supervision Department nor the Attendant Department has a general secretary.

This makes Rabi Lasi invisibly the leader of the two ministers.

Mordur's eyes were warm, and for this reason.

Therefore, it is extremely easy to dispose of.

However, this special case obviously cannot be permanent. Li Chengji is also short of people, otherwise he would not let Rabi Lasi be in charge of the two ministers. and in order to prevent his authority from being too heavy, it would cause dissatisfaction among other officials in the governor's palace.

He was only allowed to be the deputy secretary, which was considered an official, and he was a head shorter than everyone. It also told those secretly dissatisfied officials that they couldn't find the words to accuse for a while.

As for the ordinary slaves, they also went to stay for themselves. Although he can't be like those male attendants, he will switch to the governor's palace. But it doesn't mean that the Governor's Palace doesn't care about them. For example, the workshop of the Li family trading house recruited many freed slaves.

Other merchants can also recruit these slave left guards.

This arrangement provides a good place for these people to go. Second, it also allows them to have a grateful heart. Because of the removal of their slavery, the governor's palace has spent money. Otherwise, how dare those masters.

Even if he was temporarily taken by the military might of the Guardian Army, he was extremely dissatisfied in his heart. Therefore, Li Chengji chose the policy of redemption and bought the slaves' slaves from them.

After being compensated, those owners don't have so many complaints. Slaves, too, can become free men, liberating a lot of productive forces.

However, the deed of sale advanced by the Governor's Palace still has to be repaid.

At this point, the amount set by the Governor's Office is one-half of the original ransom fee. The slaves also knew that they were taking advantage of it, so they were willing to pay back the rest of the money. And because the governor's palace has set a deadline of ten years, it is not difficult to pay it back.

Originally, Lee Seungji didn't want them to pay it back! But considering that what was too easy to obtain would not be cherished, the money was reduced by half, so that the slaves who had been granted the status of freemen could understand the hard-won freedom and the benevolence of the governor's palace.

It didn't take long for Zhuqing to return. After kneading Li Chengji's shoulder for a while, Li Chengji was also so tired that he rested for a while.

After the water temperature was completely cool, Li Chengji put on his clothes and returned to the front hall under the service of Zhuqing.

But Zhang Timing and Alzimi never left.

Li Chengji also knew that he couldn't hide, so he asked Zhuqing to invite them in.

After taking his seat, Zhang Timing got straight to the point and said: "Governor! Sending troops is a major matter for the country. Today, I only informed Li Hubu of one person, could it be that I suspect that the two of us can't do it? Zhang Timing asked out loud because of his close relationship with Li Chengji.

Although Alzimi on the side didn't speak, his heavy expression obviously revealed the same question.

Li Chengji knew that he had gone too far in this matter, so he glanced at Zhu Qing. Then the door of the main hall was closed, and only the three of them remained. Li Chengji smiled awkwardly, and said softly with relief: "Uncle Zhang, Uncle Alzimi, this matter is not something I pretended to conceal..."

The uncle shouted out, and it was kind of giving them a step.

He gave his reasons in full. According to him, this campaign against Malu is not really about conquering Malu. It is Xiang Zhuang's sword dance, which is intended for Pei Gong. The real enemy to deal with is also Nishapur, south of Malu.

It was a foreign aid that the Malu County Guard was proud of, and he was currently deeply involved with Khorezm. According to reliable sources, the governor of Eastern Persia had secretly received orders from Mahamat to send more troops to Nishapur.

If you are united with Malu again, then it will take a lot of effort to take it back.

You know, it's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! Khorezm was tired of Annei and defeated by the Great Liao, and did not dare to openly disobey the decrees of the Great Liao. So even if Nishapur had reinforcements from Khorezm, there were not many of them, and the division was nameless.

As long as the Governor's Mansion defeats them in a dignified manner, then Khorezm will not dare to interfere with the Governor's Mansion to receive the four counties for a long time.

The foreign aid that the county guard of Malu County has been looking forward to is impossible to talk about. In the future, when faced with the apologists who represented the will of the Great Liao, they did not dare to have the idea of fighting again. This is possible without a fight.

As for Yeli, there is no place to ask for help.

With this in mind, Li Chengji decided to announce the conquest of Ma Lu in public during the review. So that the men of Nishapur and others let their guard down.

Hearing this explanation, Zhang Timing and Al Zimi's faces softened a lot. But that doesn't mean that their doubts are gone. Seeing that Zhang Timing was still frowning, he said loudly: "There is nothing wrong with the governor thinking about this. But it moves the whole body! The land of the three counties is not long new. The military prestige of the apologetics has not been trained. Malu lives deep in the desert and has been divided for a long time. Nishapur was intimidated by Khorezm's national prestige and submitted to the Sultan's rule. It is not an easy task to attack the city in this way. ”。

This history can be traced back to Shah, the younger brother of the previous ruler of Khorezm, Takhash. Due to the failure of the struggle for the throne, Shah, with the help of the Great Liao, conquered most of Khorasan. The cities of Nishapur, Maru, and Herat were also taken into possession.

After his death fifteen years ago, the land was annexed by Takash. If it weren't for the eastward advance of the Gur kingdom later, Khorezm's dominance in Khorasan would not have been shaken in the slightest.

Now, after the defeat of the kingdom of Ghul, these lost lands have regained their rule in Khorezm. But the local city lord has been faintly divided. In particular, the cities of Yeli and Malu have become more separatist after the civil strife in Khorezm.

Only Nishapur, because of its close proximity to Khorezm's capital Yulong Jiechi, is still under Khorezm's rule. Its governor was also appointed by Khorezm.

Now Li Chengji wants to restore his rule in Khorasan in the name of Da Liao. This Nishapur is the most important hard nail.

As long as it is recovered, then Khorezm's influence in Khorasan will be minimized. Therefore, Li Chengji would rather come and attack the west and pull out the nail of Nishapur.

But Mahamat is not a fool, don't you know? Although on the bright side, he did not dare to disobey the majesty of Daliao. But it is impossible to hand it over like this. This is completely different from exchanging his life for his mother.

However, Li Chengji does not know this.

Then he responded: "What Uncle Zhang said is reasonable! However, the recovery of the land of Khorasan is related to the development plan of our Khorasan province. At present, Khorezm is in the midst of civil strife, and the division of troops is weak, and it is time to seize it. Therefore, the soldier refers to Nishapur, which is exactly the right time and place. ”。

(I suddenly have to work overtime today, not to mention it.) Three watches in the next two days tomorrow can be regarded as an apology for today's delay. ）
