A few days later, Ashina Wenxia told Wang Fei that the reason why the sage's attitude had changed greatly was because Mrs. Qiu Guo used all kinds of seductive methods in the palace, criticizing Wang Fei's impure intentions, and wanted to follow Wang Zhonghe's example and leave the immortal work of eradicating Tibet to the new emperor. Ashina Wenxia also found out that when An Lushan entered the court, it was the news that Mrs. Yu Guo had opened the Privy Council from the sage, which caused Yang Guozhong to be on guard.

"Emulate Wang Zhonghe?" Wang Fei smiled bitterly: "When did Mrs. Qiuguo become proficient in side affairs?" Yang Guozhong has no such knowledge, and it seems that it is Ji Wen's trick. Qing's father is not dead, but Ji Wen is very cunning, and he should slowly figure it out. ”

The long tassel binds the enemy, and the costume is dedicated to the temple.

In the impassioned breaking array music, Feng Changqing, who was wearing bright iron armor, rode a horse with a pure black body and white hooves. Behind him, Li Siye, who is tall and long-armed, holds the Anxi military flag high, and if the moving Iron Floating Slaughter makes people feel that Mount Tai is overwhelming.

After Li Siye horseed, the complacent Anxi Supervisor Bian Lingcheng shook his head and smiled. Behind the two, Xi Yuanqing, who was in full armor, held the Jiejie Lubu in his hand, led a hundred Anxi heavy horses, and walked slowly. The iron palms beat the bluestone ground in unison, and the temperature around the square seemed to drop sharply.

After the mighty Ansi rode again, the prince of Subi, Sinoro, and the prince of the Great Boru, Miroli, marched in succession. It's just that the two of them are happy and sad, and their expressions are quite different.

At the end of the procession, 500 Tubo and Dabolu prisoners with unkempt hair and red spots on their faces staggered under the surveillance of the Flying Dragon Army. The Anxi army went out to take prisoners in large numbers, and it was impossible for them all to be escorted to Chang'an. Therefore, Feng Changqing carefully selected 500 large and small leaders to enter Beijing to offer prisoners.

When he arrived at the gate of the diligent government building, Feng Changqing turned over and dismounted, and the privy envoy Gao Xianzhi was already waiting here. Under the guidance of Gao Xianzhi, Feng Changqing and his entourage walked to the door of the diligent government affairs building.

Gao and Feng are inseparable friends, but their personalities are very different. Gao Xianzhi was born in a family of Jiangmen, and the journey was smooth, seemingly arrogant and simple; After Feng Changqing was exiled, he was lame and slanted, and he went through ups and downs, so his scheming was deep and difficult to understand. Wang Fei looked at Gao Xianzhi and Feng Changqing, who had made proud achievements, and sighed with emotion: "Xing Wei's death must be Feng Changqing's plan, not Gao Xianzhi's handiwork." ”

Around the first day, rumors spread that Wang Zhun had absconded back to Beijing. Although Wang Fei looked at it indifferently, he still tentatively asked Li Renyi at the luncheon for An Lushan. When he found out that Li Renzhi was not behind the scenes, Wang Fei began to pay attention to this matter.

In order to find out the bottom of the matter, Wang Feige sent a letter to Yangzhou Boliang Commercial Bank, and asked Zao Wou-Ki to send a clipper to Lingnan to find out Wang Zhun's whereabouts.

When Guanzhong suffered a flood last year, Zao Wou-ki's sincerity and pioneering spirit moved Wang Fei, so he shared his memory of shipbuilding knowledge and coastal routes applicable to the technical level of the Tang Dynasty, and invested in a partnership with Zao Wou-Ki to open Boliang Trading House.

After arriving in Yangzhou, Zao Wou-Ki immediately organized the renovation of two sea vessels, adding watertight compartments and water-draped boards, and adding compasses and compasses...... A few months later, the rejuvenated ship sailed from Yangzhou and crossed the East China Sea to Japan's Shika Island (present-day Hirado Island and Goto Islands), where it was resupplied and sailed north along the coast to Chikushi (present-day Kitakyushu area) via Matsuura and Hakata.

No maritime merchant had ever traveled this route before, and Zao Wou-Ki was trembling when he made the maiden voyage. If it weren't for the fact that Wang Fei had the ability to turn stone into gold, he would never dare to take such a big risk. Unexpectedly, it took seven days for the smooth sailing ship to arrive at Tsukikashima Island, and within ten days it reached Tsukushi safely. After a trip, Zao Wou-ki, who was like a divine help, made a lot of money, and admired Wang Fei even more.

Not satisfied with the status quo, Zao Wou-Ki continued to buy and renovate ships, and Boliang Trading Company, which had monopolized the new route for half a year, became bigger and bigger, and gradually emerged as one of the largest maritime merchants in Yangzhou.

Mu Xiu was destroyed by the forest wind, and the various forces that were jealous of Boliang Commercial Bank were constantly moving openly and secretly. For those who secretly do tricks and feet, the Su Ye dart master who followed Zao Wou-ki south returned the tooth for a tooth, and used thunderbolt means to clean up all kinds of cows, ghosts, snakes and gods into obedience; For corrupt officials with ulterior motives and blatant bribery, Zao Wou-Ki erected Yang Yuhuan's banner high in accordance with Wang Fei's instructions. The sentence "make some fat powder money for the concubine" and a few Yizhou Huanhua notes stamped with Yang Yuhuan's private seal, were so shocked that the Taishou and the county order hurriedly retreated.

It turned out that Wang Fei had expected that the shopping mall would be like a battlefield, and Tuo Ashina Xiaoyun whispered a few beautiful words in Yang Yuhuan's ear and borrowed a tiger skin for Boliang Commercial Bank. And every time Zao Wou-Ki goes to sea, he will collect a few rare treasures and send them to the palace for the concubine to enjoy. Wang Fei also took out a few percent of his dividends, and Ashina Xiaoyun offered Yang Yuhuan as private money, making the depressed concubine smile evenly.

In addition to continuing to operate routes to Japan, the thriving Boliang firm also continued to explore new sea routes and business opportunities in accordance with Wang Fei's instructions. Lingnan and Yangzhou already have a mature shipping route, and the fleet of Boliang Commercial Bank will naturally not let it go. Master Suye, who went to Lingnan by boat to investigate, was shocked to find that Wang Zhun had never left Lingnan.

When I got the news from Yangzhou, it was already early March. Wang Fei, Wang Yong, Ayi Tenggna, Ashina Sisters and Lu Qi combined with the sporadic information collected by the Suye Dart Bureau in Chang'an, such as before the Yuan-Ri Dynasty meeting, the sage had secretly summoned Gao Xianzhi to enter the palace alone; For example, Gao Xiangui was too affectionate to Chen Da, the deputy of the former Beiting Tooth Corps, and seemed to have a plan; For example, Wei Boyu, the general of Anxi, often led more than ten tooth soldiers to disappear for no reason, and then there would be news of Wang Zhun making rebellion in Chang'an City...... It is speculated that Gao Xianzhi is very likely to be the driving force behind the suspicion of "Wang Zhun returning to Beijing".

As for Gao Xianzhi's purpose, Wang Fei flipped through a thick stack of "Jinchengfang Monitoring Daily", pointed to several records of "Longwu General Xing Wei said he was not sick" and said: "Gao Xiang wants to avenge the wronged, and the saint wants to be more Yi Donggong, and the Ken Qi is all on Xing Wei." ”

After figuring out the ins and outs of the matter, Wang Fei had no intention of interfering in the matter. As far as the public is concerned, Wang Fei is reluctant to get involved in the battle for succession; Personally, he supported Gao Xianzhi in revenge. When he learned that Xing Wei's throat had been killed by the assassins, Wang Fei felt that good and evil would eventually be rewarded; Hearing that Wang Zhun died in the summer heat of Lingnan, Wang Feiyi first arrived in Gyeonggi and clashed with him at the Ruoxi Inn in the western suburbs, and suddenly had a few sighs of "the deceased is like Sifu".

What amazed Wang Fei was that Feng Changqing's strategy was exhaustive and interlocking. dared to release the rumor that Wang Zhun would return to Beijing because it was calculated that Lingnan was remote, and neither the prince nor Chen Xuanli had arranged manpower here, so it was inconvenient and impossible to distinguish the true from the false in a short period of time; used rumors to stir up the situation in Chang'an, in order to lure the snake out of the hole, making Xing Wei uneasy and the prince ready to move; pretending to be Long Wujun to assassinate Xing Wei was to give Xing Wei the illusion that he was abandoned by Chen Xuanli; Forging Chen Dayu's talisman is taking advantage of Wang Fei's reputation...... And Feng Changqing's ultimate goal is undoubtedly to trick Xing Wei into defecting and exposing the mastermind behind Wang Zhuo's rebellion, so as to avenge Gao Xianzhi.

If it weren't for Wang Fei, who happened to have Boliang Commercial Bank, he wouldn't have been able to break through the layers and twists and turns of Feng Changqing's scheming for a while. However, the imminent disaster and the haze of war over the Tang Dynasty made Wang Fei quickly forget about the matter......

Offering the joy of the Son of Heaven and the edict of grace.

Downstairs in the diligent government department, Zhang Jun, the secretary of the Criminal Department, said loudly: "Your Majesty, the Anxi Protectorate conquered Tubo and Dabolu, captured more than 14,000 people, and respectfully asked for the Holy Judgment." ”

"I am the Son of Heaven, and God has the virtue of a good life. Although Tibet has repeatedly violated the border of the Tang Dynasty, the two countries have been in constant contact, and Wencheng and Jincheng are all in harmony with Zanpu. Da Bolu is a vassal of the Tang Dynasty, and occasional faux pas can also be forgiven. I have made up my mind, and I will pardon the death penalty of you and others. "Standing upstairs and looking down at the group of captives, Li Longji is majestic and like a god.

The five hundred captives downstairs listened to the translator's translation, and they were so happy that they wept so much that they forgot to bow their heads and thank them.

"Death is avoidable, but living sin is inescapable. If you don't obey the edict of the Tang Dynasty and don't respect me, if you let it go easily, how can Tianwei exist? You and others were all captured by the Anxi Protectorate, and I ordered you to work in the four towns of Anxi for ten years, can you wait? "Li Longji is powerful.

"Thank God Khan!" The Tubo and Da Bolu prisoners of war who escaped death kowtowed like a pound, grateful to Dade.

"The four towns of Anxi made Feng Changqing, not chaotic in the face of danger, perseverance and courage, I was very happy, and added the seal of Tejin, Kaifu Yi and the three divisions, and gave Yongye Tian 1,000 acres, 100,000 yuan, and two sons. Li Siye, the soldier and horse envoy of the four towns of Anxi, took the lead in the soldiers, bravely crowned the three armies, and was crowned the deputy envoy of the four towns of Anxi, and gave Yongye 500 acres of land, 50,000 yuan of money, and a son of Yin; The four towns of Anxi with the soldiers and horses envoy Xi Yuanqing, who was stubborn and unstoppable, was crowned the deputy envoy of the four towns of Anxi, and gave Yongye 500 acres, 50,000 yuan, and a son; Bian Lingcheng, the supervisor of the four towns of Anxi, was conscientious and conscientious, and was crowned as a young eunuch from the four products of the province, and was given 500 acres of Yongye land and 50,000 yuan. The rest of the meritorious soldiers will be rewarded by the Ministry of Soldiers! ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Longen!" The Anxi soldiers led by Feng Changqing thanked him in unison.

"Li Siye and Xi Yuanqing crossed Bi Sichen and promoted to the deputy envoy of the same degree, which is very rare, which shows that Li Longji is extremely satisfied with Feng Changqing's battle. Bi Sichen climbed to the position of Anxi Changshi by virtue of serving as the captain of the tooth soldier who served as the husband Meng Lingcha, but he had no outstanding talent except for shaving and patting horses, and he was not the same traveler as Gao and Feng, no wonder Feng Changqing did not take him to the expedition. Anxi Bei General Duan Xiushi is both civil and military, and he is also a rare talent. Wang Fei secretly took stock of the generals in Anxi: "It's just that I don't know whose way Bian Lingcheng went, and he actually returned to Beijing from the border town and became the second only person in the Inner Service Province after Gao Weng......"

Before the sacrifice of the prisoners, Wang Fei received a secret report from Luo Puli, and the Ruyi Juting Prefecture branch frequently invited banquets to the officials of the Beiting Metropolitan Protectorate, which seemed to have a plan. Wang Fei thought that the prince had something to do, so he ordered the Suye Dart Bureau to strengthen monitoring, but who knew that Ruyiju did not make any further moves after that.
