Zhang Yuan's face became miserable, and he screamed: "Yang Chong, you really have a bad plot and treat Hexi as your own one-third of an acre. Don't forget, this is the world of the Great Sui, as long as the Holy Son of Heaven says a word, you can wipe out your family. Yang Chong, believe it or not, we can take down all your people in Chang'an, including your little concubine Yuan Raider. ”

Yang Chong was not excited at all, looked at Zhang Yuan as if he was looking at a clown, and said: "I believe that Wei Xuan is now used to Cao Kan's life, but Gonggong Zhang, I can tell you that as long as Yuan raiders and them have an accident, I will fight Chang'an, whether it is Wei Xuan or anyone else, they must pay back their blood debts." I let you see Brother Kong, just to tell you that when Brother Kong's wanted notice is canceled, Changsun Xian and this Tuoba can return to Chang'an. ”

Cui Zhen turned around and asked Tianjian: "How many people have been arrested?" ”

Tianjian replied: "I am only in charge of Zhangye, and all the warriors under Changsun Xian died in battle, and only survived; This Tuoba is far behind, a total of twenty-two people, and we have caught fifteen live mouths, and are asking for confessions. Judging from the confessions they have obtained, they are responsible for three things: stealing the thunder, assassinating the high-ranking officials of Zhangye, and finding out the transactions between the governor's office and the Turks; The liquor shop was bought by Yu Song's men, who were the lords of the Sogdian settlement in Chang'an, and should not have been interested in Zhangye's restaurant business. ”

Zhang Yuan and the others understood what the problem was, Yang Chong had a net in Chang'an, and Yu Song sent people from Chang'an, which seemed to be safe, but in fact, he was investigated very early. As soon as Zhang Yuan gritted his teeth, stood up and left, Yu Shinan asked, "Have you found anyone who is in contact with them?" ”

Tianjian bowed his head and said: "The wine shop is on the same street as many yamen, and quite a lot of officials go to eat, otherwise we won't pay attention." ”

Yu Shinan sighed, no wonder Yu Zhongwen and Cui Zhen were so cautious, the layout of Chang'an was really vulnerable, and the location of the wine shop seemed to be convenient for collecting intelligence, but it must also be a place for Yang Chong's side to pay attention to and take precautions. Zhuge Ying suddenly asked, "Yang Chong, Wei Xuan has always been worried about your use of troops against Guanzhong. ”

Yang Chong shrugged his shoulders and said: "Wei Xuan wants to divide half of the energy put on me to counterinsurgency and local governance, so that Guanzhong and Hedong and other places will not be ruined, there will be no famine, no foreign invasion, and so many people will die." Uncle Shi, you can tell him, I hope it will remain the same now, and it will not march on Guanzhong, the fields have been abandoned for a year, and there are so many displaced people, it is definitely a headache. ”

The matter of Sui Hantang has been exposed, Zhang Yuan knows that he can't control whether Yang Chong is a traitor or evil, as soon as he heard that Zhuge Ying persuaded Yang Chong that he would not interfere in Chang'an, he immediately dragged Zhuge Ying to the governor's mansion to resign; Yang Chong knew that Zhang Yuan's heart was like an arrow, so he pretended to comfort him and left. When the mission arrived in Wuwei County the next day, it was repeatedly searched by Shan Xiongxin's men, and even the gifts given by Yang Chong were opened; Fortunately, Zhuge Ying, the great god, was here, and he called Shan Xiongxin to send him all the way through Huining County.

When he arrived in Jincheng County, Zhang Yuan didn't even see Guo Rong, who was sick in bed, so he asked the local government to send more people to send him to Chang'an non-stop. Zhang Yuan knew that there was a big disaster, and the 800-mile express report was sent to Xinzhuo County. I heard that he got the heavenly thunder powder, Wei Xuan designated Yun Dingxing to take the lead in the analysis and research, and asked the experts to assist from the major families and well-known Buddhist and Taoist temples.

When Yang Chong heard the news of Zhuge Ying's death, he didn't recover for three days, but he was just sitting alone under the grape trellis in the mansion in a daze, and whoever shouted at him was listless, as if he had been hit by a magic barrier, and he was confused. In the end, Yuwenkai couldn't help it, and stepped forward to wake up Yang Chong with a slap, Yuwenkai couldn't help it, and news came from the Turks that Shibi Khan rejected the proposal to meet in Yulin County, and was ready to enter the court to see Yang Guang, so that the center was likely to make a fuss about the topic and ask Yang Chong to return to the court to discuss things.

After Yang Chong came over, people were still a little different; Ling Jing, Du Yan, and Yang came with Yu Wenkai, and when Yang Chong finished eating a bowl of beef noodles, his expression almost recovered, and then he got to the point. Ling Jing analyzed: "This should be a favor from Princess Yicheng, Yulin County is too close to us and the Wuyuan Tooth Tent, I am afraid that Chief Yang and Dubi will plot against us." It's just that Chang'an, Luoyang and other places can't go at all, and if you go, there will be changes, so you have to think of a way first. ”

Yang Chong's gaze was a little sharp, and he said categorically: "Declare to the outside world that I am unwell, and the general matter will be handled by Deputy Chief Zhongwen; Xuan Ling came to Zhangye and served as the governor of the mansion to assist Cui Zhen in handling official business, and Dai Xuan took over as the county guard of Gaochang. If the official document of the center arrives, please ask Yu Zhongwen to go on my behalf. ”

This is a scoundrel's method, but it is the best way when there is no way, what Yang Chong needs is time; When Yu Zhongwen and Cui Zhen heard the news, they could only smile bitterly, Yang Chong, the general manager, really didn't have anything to do in normal times, and the work had already been assigned to the people below. Anyway, in the end, how the center and Yang Chong settled the account had nothing to do with him, so Cui Zhen directly sent someone to inform Yu Shinan.

In order to promote education, the Western Regions Governor's Office set up eleven primary schools, which were in the four cities of Gaochang, Tiandi, Nanping, and Huni in Gaochang County, and Suning City in Mojun County, Yiwu City, Dunhuang, Jiuquan, Wuwei, and Xijun, as well as Zhangye County and Shandan County. In addition, it is planned to set up middle schools in Zhangye and Nanping, which is still a three-year system.

The curriculum of the primary school is to teach the "Three Character Classic" for two years, and the third grade of primary school and the third year of middle school use the textbooks written by Liu Zhuo before his death, and the content of the textbooks each year includes 15 ancient poems, 10 excerpts from historical books, 10 articles on the hundred schools of thought, and 15 articles on the essentials of Confucianism. Pang Huan and others found 900 practical questions from "100,000 Whys" and compiled three volumes of "Common Sense" as the second course in middle school; Five one-year elective courses are calligraphy and painting, geography, architecture, physics, and agriculture.

Yu Shinan generation of calligraphy, Wang Xizhi, Wang Xianzhi, soft outside and rigid inside, the pen is round and harmonious and beautiful, and later with Ouyang Xun, Chu Suiliang, Xue Ji and called the four great calligraphers in the early Tang Dynasty. Don't look at Cui Zhen, Kong Yingda and other characters are good, but compared with Yu Shinan, there is still a certain gap in terms of vision and pen effort. So he was pulled by Cui Zhen to help identify the copybook.

Xue Shang and they prepared some of the posthumous works of Xue Daoheng and Liu Zhuo, the recitals of Fang Xuanling and Cui Zhen, as well as more than 100 rubbings from the stone tablets and cliffs in Dunhuang, Zhangye and other places, and the most precious thing is that Liu Zhuo and Kong Yingda copied the original copy of Wang Xizhi's "Orchid Pavilion Preface", which made Yu Shinan feel that the trip was worthwhile.

Hearing that Yang Chong was sick, Yu Shinan guessed that there was something strange in it, Yang Chong should wait for the Tiele people to come and go to Yulin together, how did he fall ill, a politician can't be so sad because of the departure of an elder. Yu Shinan can only report to Chang'an according to the regular procedures in case of accidents; However, Yu Shinan's recital is still on the way, and the order of the center has arrived, asking Yang Chong to go to Jiangdu in November to discuss matters, and it is estimated that he will not be able to come back until the end of the New Year. Yu Shinan completely understood at this moment, and specially went to Lijing County to see Yang Chong.
