Xuanyunzi's appearance immediately attracted the attention of many people, and also evoked the memories of some believers.

"Hey, how is this Xue Dudu a bit like the one who debated 'Good as Water' at the Holy English and French Conference a few days ago?"

"Don't say it, it's really like!"

The believers seemed to remember, and finally determined that it was really him!

In the crowd, a young man in a blue shirt hurriedly hid his face and left, panicking. His companion hurriedly pulled him back, "What are you running for?" ”

The blue-shirted young man said with a nervous face: "At the Dharma meeting that day, Xue Dudu sat beside me. I often spoke out against him...... Isn't it dead now? ”

It's so good that he can't die, Xue Shao just caught a glimpse of the blue-shirted young man in the crowd. With a smile at the moment, he reined in his horse and took the initiative to ask, "Brother Tai, don't come to harm?" ”

The blue-shirted young man almost vomited blood, and forced himself to calmly clasp his fists at Xue Shao and bowed, "...... Very good, very good! Xue Dudu, don't come unharmed? ”

"Very good, very good." Xue Shao nodded and smiled at him, and patted his horse forward.

The blue-shirted young man looked at Xue Shao nervously with bated breath, and was almost suffocated to death. It wasn't until Xue Shao walked away that he finally let out a sharp breath, and his hanging heart fell back to the same place.

"It's okay, it's okay, he didn't bother with me!"

Xuan Yunzi was leading a team of children to pass in front of the blue-shirted young man, smiled slightly, and said, "Xue Dudu has always been close to the people and loves the people, why are Daoyou so frightened? ”

Directly touching his idol goddess at zero distance, the blue-shirted young man was nervous again, holding his breath, and was so excited that he couldn't speak.

Xuan Yunzi shook his head and smiled, and walked away.

The blue-shirted young man was almost suffocated again, and when he came back to his senses, he saw that Xuan Yunzi had already walked beside Xue Shao's horse, and the two were chatting and laughing intimately.

The blue-shirted young man and some other young believers present who admired Xuan Yunzi felt a chill in their hearts at the moment...... One is the son of Lantian, a feudal official, and the other is the Daomen Shengying who captivates the country and the city. When people walk together, no matter how they look at it, they look like a pair made from the ground.

We can wash and sleep!

The unveiling banquet of the Assassin's Mansion was very rich and grand. Xue Shao, who officially visited Suizhou for the first time after taking office as the governor, invited all the officials and generals of Suizhou to offer flowers and Buddhas, as well as talented scholars and religious masters, as well as leaders from all walks of life and celebrities with high prestige.

The so-called "pro-people" means, first of all, to have a good relationship with these people who have a certain degree of social prestige and influence.

However, none of the two Yangliu families in Hongyun Fort came. Wu Yizong and Xu Changqing were also not present.

Xue Shao saw it in his eyes and remembered it in his heart, but he didn't say a word.

After the feast, the people from all walks of life gradually dispersed. Xu Changqing hurried back to the Assassin's Mansion and made amends in front of Xue Shao, saying that because he was out on official business, he was too late to welcome the arrival of the governor, and the death penalty was clouded.

Of course, Xue Shao knew what he was going to do, and at this moment, Wu Yizong was busy loading grain and grass in Hongyun Castle.

"Since even you know that I came to Suizhou, then Yang Tong and Liu Yuan must also know." Xue Shao said lightly, "The people of Suizhou all came to take the initiative to greet and pay a visit to the official, but they ignored the official. What a big shelf! ”

Xu Changqing was shocked and whispered: "Xue Dudu suddenly arrived, but Wu Yizong was frightened. He hurriedly stopped receiving grain and grass, and asked the lower officials to rush back to the Assassin's Mansion to inquire about the news. Xue Dudu, how should the lower officials reply to Wu Yizong now? ”

"I'm asking you." Xue Shao raised some voices.

Xu Changqing hurriedly bowed, and said resignedly: "The lower official is only responsible for the delivery of grain and grass, and has not had direct contact with Yang Liu and the others - as the governor said, these two people have eyes above the top and the shelves are very big. They were still cold-eyed and arrogant in front of Wu Yizong, how could they put Xiaguan, the long history of the cold family, in their eyes? ”

Xue Shao nodded, this is not strange. Nowadays, not to mention a wealthy surname with a bit of strength, even if it is a child of a famous family who is so down-and-out that he has accumulated a seat to sell shoes, he often has a high-minded face and no one looks down on him. Not to mention people like Wu Yizong, even if they are poor people who have become prime ministers, they still look down on them.

This is the current social form of Datang, and the concept of the door has been strengthened to paranoia!

"To tell you the truth, I deliberately visited Suizhou with such fanfare, just to give the Yangliu family a chance to take the initiative to come to me to ask for peace." Xue Shao's voice was already revealing a sense of coldness, "But now it seems that they don't have this intention!" ”

"This ......" Xu Changqing shuddered, "Xiaguan, it's hard to say!" ”

"Then you go back and give them a mouth." Xue Shao said quietly.

Xu Changqing was stunned for a moment, "Xiaguan, this is going back?" ”

"Or else?"

"Yes, yes! Let's go! Xu Changqing was a little confused, but he didn't dare to ask more, so he had to turn around and leave.

"Wait a minute!" Xue Shao suddenly stopped Xu Changqing and asked, "Hundreds of thousands of stones of grain and grass need to be delivered, and manpower must be recruited." How are your people recruited? ”

Xu Changqing didn't know why Xue Shao had this question, so he had to answer truthfully: "It is Yang Tong's sons who are in charge of recruiting the manpower in Hongyun Castle. ”

"Got it, go ahead!" Xue Shao remained silent.

Xu Changqing was confused, and he retreated.

Xue Shao called Zhang Renyuan over, "Do you want to make meritorious service?" ”

Zhang Renyuan's face turned red, and he smiled innocently: "The subordinates are driven by the governor, and it doesn't matter if they don't make meritorious contributions!" ”

"It's normal to want to make meritorious contributions, there's nothing to hide." Xue Shao smiled, "I don't want a soldier who doesn't want to make meritorious contributions!" ”

Zhang Renyuan hurriedly bowed, "Please give the order of the governor!" ”

Xue Shao called him closer and whispered to him for a while. Zhang Renyuan nodded frequently, and then took the order and left.

The next day, Xue Shao, the governor of Xiazhou, was invited by the Taoist Shengying to attend the dojo puja. Among the entourage, there was more assassination of Wu Yanzhang, but there was one less Zhang Renyuan.

Although everyone was curious, they didn't ask much.

These people who often followed Xue Shao's side, from generals like Xue Chuyu to obscure private retainers like Wu Ming and Yuenu, were all eye-catching and familiar to many state officials and county officials. Only Zhang Renyuan is a young and inconspicuous new face. In addition, Xue Shao's behavior has always been strange and disorganized, God knows what special task he assigned to Zhang Renyuan?

Attending the Dharma this time, Xue Shao no longer had to huddle in the dojo like those believers. He and Wu Yanzhang, the assassin history, served as the official "special guest" and sat on the platform.

Therefore, the political significance of this festival goes far beyond its own religious significance. Xuan Yunzi's position as the leader of the religious circles in Suizhou made him more stable and detached.

The believers once again witnessed the joint appearance of Xue Shao and Xuan Yunzi, the "golden boy and jade girl", and thus they were even more convinced that - a pair made in heaven and a pair set in the earth!

In fact, Xue Shao was looking for something to do at all, and he was patiently waiting for the Yangliu family to respond. As for the government affairs and people's livelihood in Suizhou, in fact, he does not need to personally inquire about everything. Wu Yanzhang, the new assassin, is working hard and loving the people with full horsepower to make political achievements, and there will be no big problems under the rule of Suizhou.

After the puja, Xuanyunzi set up a vegetarian banquet to invite Xue Shao and Wu Yanzhang and his party. The place where the banquet was held was in the Sanqing Women's Guanguan where Xue went.

"It's such a great place with a beautiful scenery. After months of marching and fighting, I was really tired. I'd like to spend a few days here. After Xue Shao arrived at Sanqingguan, he said in front of Wu Yanzhang.

Wu Yanzhang hurriedly stepped forward and bowed his hand and said, "Xue Dudu only needs to recuperate here, and the lower officials will definitely serve with all their hearts!" ”

Xue Shao smiled, "I should do my best to take care of the government affairs of the Assassin Mansion." I brought an attendant with me, so I don't need you, the assassin, to serve in person. ”

Wu Yanzhang's face turned red, and he thought that he had committed some taboo, so he hurriedly confessed his guilt and admitted his mistake.

Xue Shao smiled, motioned for Wu Yanzhang to follow him to the small dirt slope on the side, lowered his voice and said: "Wu Tingshi, I didn't come to Suizhou for Xuanyunzi or to shake the official prestige, I came specifically for Wu Yizong and Yang Dong Liuyuan!" ”

Wu Yanzhang was stunned and nodded hurriedly.

Xue Shao smiled slightly, "I took you as a confidant, so I revealed a thing or two to you." Now, you just have to go back to the Shi Mansion to preside over government affairs, and you don't have to make a noise as yesterday. You just thought I was really looking for flowers and asked the willows, and I didn't accompany me. ”

"The lower officials don't dare!" Wu Yanzhang hurriedly bowed his hand and said cautiously, "Xue Dudu, do you need to do anything under the officials?" ”

"I've already said it." Xue Shao smiled.

Wu Yanzhang blinked blankly, and then suddenly realized, "Xia Guan understands - loose on the outside and tight on the inside, be vigilant!" ”

"I didn't expect Wu Tingshi to know the art of war!" Xue Shao smiled and said, "That's right, I'm dealing with Wu Yizong and Yang Liu, salute first and then soldier." If they know how to lift, everything can be resolved peacefully. If not, the blessing and the misfortune are unpredictable! ”

Wu Yanzhang's eyebrows were furrowed, and his expression was solemn and he pondered for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Governor Xue, the lower officials think that it is better not to move as much as possible. Suizhou has just experienced the rebellion of Bai Tieyu, and the people's livelihood is withered and in ruins, and it can't stand the toss! ”

Xue Shao snorted, "In stark contrast to the withering and ruins of the people's livelihood, it is precisely those corrupt officials and local tyrants who run rampant in the countryside without a king's law, and they are so rich that they are still making a fortune in the country, like maggots that suck blood!" If these poisons are not removed, how can the livelihood of Suizhou be restored? ”

Wu Yanzhang's brows furrowed fiercely, "What the Governor said hit the nail on the head!" ”

Xue Shao smiled slightly, "Presumably, you, the assassin of the new official, have long been fed up with the cowardice of the local heroes." Their existence has greatly affected the rule of law and security in the local area, and greatly threatened the authority of the government. Now that Lang Lang Qiankun is peaceful and prosperous, how can he allow the powerful to resist the government and become a country of its own? Wu Thorn History, it is imperative to pull out the poison, this is exactly your job as a Thorn Shi. This officer, I have come to help you and achieve this feat! ”

Obedient and listening, where does Wu Yanzhang still not understand that Xue Shao is vigorously promoting him?

So Wu Yanzhang officially bowed to Xue Shao, "The lower officials are willing to do their best for the governor, cut off the poison and return the Suizhou side to Qingming!" ”

"Good. Now you can go back to Suizhou Thorn Mansion. Xue Shao smiled slightly, "Remember-don't leak the news to startle the snake." Xu Changqing knew the inside story, but he was very likely to be double-sided at both ends of the rat's head and could not be trusted. ”

"Xiaguan remembered!" Xu Changqing cautiously said, "The lower officials will definitely stabilize Xu Changqing and not make him suspicious!" ”

Xue Shao nodded with a smile, this Wu Yanzhang is indeed shrewd and capable, very sensible!

Wu Yanzhang is gone.

Xue Shao stood on the hillside, stretched out a big lazy waist in the evening sunset, and said with a smile to himself: "Okay, I can finally go to the grass with confidence!" ”
