Chapter 659: The Imperial Court Envoy Comes, the Momentum of Jizhou
The carriage sent by the imperial court, after twists and turns all the way, took a full five days to leave Jizhou, during which thanks to the escort sent by the king of Jiangdu, this can be regarded as a thrilling journey without danger.
Even so, there was still a wave of homeless people in the middle, which made the faces of the group not very good, and there was a bit of a taste of grass and trees.
For this reason, Yu Liang, as the leader, looked even more serious, found an insider, and politely asked about the situation in Jizhou.
This insider is personable and talented, he came to the carriage of Yu Liang and others, sat on the ground, and talked eloquently.
"Jizhou is a big state, with a large population, and the border of Youzhou, Pingzhou is different, that Youzhou several counties combined, a total of only seven counties, this is still too few counties before, and split out two, and seven counties a total of thirty-four counties, some of which are only three or four counties, such as the two counties of Shanggu and Guangning, there are only two counties and three counties!"
"In contrast, Jizhou is obviously different, the entire state spans east, west, north and south, with a total of thirteen counties and eighty-three counties!"
"But the whole Jizhou, but showing a split trend, because of natural disasters and man-made disasters, flattered the four parts of the southeast, northwest and northwest, a while ago the imperial court sent people to disaster relief, but until now, only the south is a little stable, the real disaster relief, but also in the southern plains, Qinghe, Anping, Julu and other counties."
"Most of the people in the north of Jizhou are still wandering, and there are faintly a few homeless thieves who have gathered, among which Gaoyang, Zhongshan, Changshan, and Boling are the most rampant places for homeless people, and there are about more than 20 different grass thieves who have raised their banners, they not only plundered the government, but also attacked everywhere, and they are still merging with each other!"
"And the east, that is, the road we are traveling on, is under the leadership of the king of Jiangdu, the king of Jiangdu sits in Bohai County, and now relying on his soldiers, horses and officials, he has mastered the three counties of Bohai, Leling, and Zhangwu, which are all near the sea, and many fleets set sail from Jiangnan to transport materials, so they have gradually recovered their vitality."
"In addition, between Zhangwu County and Gaoyang County, there is also a Hejian Kingdom, which is the fief of the King of Hejian, but it is not under the control of the King of Jiangdu, but is led by his country, which can be regarded as a buffer to block the offensive of the displaced people for the King of Jiangdu, after all, the King of Hejian is also about to return."
With this person's explanation, everyone felt that they knew a lot about the situation, but when they heard the name of the King of the River, many people's expressions were more or less unnatural.
This king of Hejian has a history, in fact, it is the abolished prince who was imprisoned in Jinyong City, and his life was threatened many times, and finally after the king of Guanghan came to power, there was finally a change, and the garrison was reduced before, and he was finally released, but he was still under house arrest in the capital, but according to some sources, the matter of the waste prince's return to the fiefdom seems to have been determined, but because of the chaos in Jizhou, no one was sent for the time being.
Everyone's minds turned, but Yu Liang praised the person who explained the situation: "Xie Jun's ability is really admirable, in just a few words, the situation is very clear, no wonder King Langya will recommend it." β
It turned out that the person who introduced the situation, named Xie Pei, was an official in the Langya Palace, and had long been recommended by the King of Langya to make him an official, but he had not been able to make the trip.
This time, the envoy led by Yu Liang went north to go to Daijun to contact Chen Zhi, and I don't know whose proposal was to let this scholar from the Xie family of Chenjun follow, but the reason is reasonable.
First, this person has already been recommended, and the imperial court wants to examine his ability.
Second, this person is quite familiar with the situation in the north, and has also been in contact with all parties on behalf of King Langya.
Third, he and Chen Zhi have also met, and they can be regarded as friends.
It was these three reasons that contributed to Xie Bao's trip, and Yu Liang's inquiry also proved that this choice was not wrong.
However, when Yu Liang's words fell, another voice came from the side-
"Xie Jun, you talked about the disaster relief in the south, the distribution of displaced people in the north, and also mentioned the power of the king of Jiangdu in the east, but the west side of Jizhou, close to the side of Bingzhou, did not mention it, I heard that there is a Xiongnu who are currently making waves here."
"Zhang Jun is well-informed, it is true," Xie Li nodded, and said in a calm tone: "This news, in fact, even King Langya was confirmed not long ago. β
is known as Zhang Jun, who is Zhang Ying's son Zhang Yang, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but smile proudly.
However, Xie Pei followed and said: "However, what can be determined now is that although this group of people and horses is from the Huns, their leader is not a Huns." β
"Shile, I know." Zhang Yang hurriedly answered, "This person was chased by the Marquis of Dongping all over the world before, and finally became desperate and took refuge in the Huns, this person also went to the capital with the Hun envoys, but a small thief, he has seen Tianwei, and he doesn't know how to advance or retreat, and the way to death is also." β
"Yes," Xie Pei still nodded, "That Shile is a Qian, so his current composition is very complicated, half of them are Qian, some are Huns, and there are many Han people, who entered the Kou from the grassland, passed through Youzhou, and arrived in Jizhou, after a few battles, the war situation in the west of Jizhou, the south of Changshan County, and the Zhao State further south have been occupied by him. β
"It's really a big hidden danger." Zhang Yang sighed with emotion, looked at Yu Liang, and said: "Yu Yushi, as the Zhongcheng of the Imperial History, you should have sat in the center and coordinated all parties, but I didn't expect to go out in person this time. β
"It is a matter of duty to share the sorrows of the country." Yu Liang didn't say much about this matter, and then changed his words, "On the contrary, the current situation is really getting more and more unfavorable, there is already a Wang Jun in the north, and now there is another Chen Zhi, one or two hidden dangers, in my opinion, I am afraid that it is more dangerous than that Shile." β
"Yes!" Zhang Yang nodded sympathetically, "We must not let them act recklessly." β
"But ......" Yu Liang suddenly changed his words at this time, revealing a smile, "This time, we still have to show respect to the general, after all, this time, we have to visit him first, and then go to Daijun, and we have to rely on his men and horses in the middle." β
Zhang Yang paused for a moment before he realized that this general was talking about Wang Jun, and couldn't help but nod and said, "Yes, this is reasonable." β
That Xie Pei watched coldly, and when he saw these two people asking and answering, he was also thinking about it in his heart.
Wang Jun's matter, although it has long become a hidden danger in the court, the princes tacitly do not say it, it is easy not to say it, at most in private, or at the imperial meeting, mention one or two, in the serious court, it will never say that Wang Jun is a threat, but to praise a word of loyalty to the country.
As a result, this imperial historian as the chief envoy, and Zhang Yang as the deputy envoy, talked about the matter openly, I don't know what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd, at least he Xie Pei didn't dare to put his beak lightly, so he looked at the nose and nose and kept silent.
But he wanted to be quiet, but some people were unwilling to let him go, so he saw that Zhang Yang suddenly looked over and asked with a smile: "Xie Jun, I heard that you have met Chen Zhi and have a friendship, I don't know what you think of this person?" β
"Chen Taishou is a masterpiece in the world, how can I compare with it?" Xie Li was willing to step into this quagmire, and immediately shook his head, "I don't dare to judge, what's more, I'm just speaking for King Langya, and I don't have a friendship." β
"Be modest," Zhang Yang smiled and took two steps closer, "I have heard of your name, and the Xie family of Chenjun is also a famous family, of course I believe in your vision." β
Xie Di couldn't put it off, and was thinking about making an official tone, but was interrupted by a sound of percussion.
The sound came from the carriage outside, as if someone was knocking on the door.
"Somebody, come in and talk."
The carriage stopped, and the doors opened.
As a royal history and an angel, it represents the majesty of the imperial court, so the carriage that Yu Liang is riding in is really not small, there are four people sitting in it, and two small bookshelves can be opened, and there is a large empty space.
Therefore, the people outside pushed the car door and walked in, but it didn't look crowded.
"It's news, but what's going on over there on Wang Jun's side?" Yu Liang's eyes shrugged, made a casual and free look, and asked softly.
The messenger also whispered: "Back to the imperial history, it's not the news of General Wang, but the news of Daijun, or the military situation." β
"Daijun's military intelligence?" Zhang Yang's eyes lit up, "With the two groups of people being pacified one after another, what other military situation can there be?" Could it be that Chen Zhi threw out what achievements? Then he is too uninteresting, and the court still has to inspect his achievements, could it be that the Chen family did not give him a letter to explain? β
After a series of words, he suddenly realized that he had transgressed, and these words should not be asked by him.
Sure enough, Yu Liang used the ring on his hand to tap lightly on the car board under him, and then asked, "What is the military situation?" β
Four words, immediately let the messenger reciprocateβ
"It's the news about the troops stationed in the north of Dai County, saying that the Zhonglang over there colluded with Wang Quan with foreign clans with the intention of rebellion, and was taken down by Chen Zhi immediately and has been escorted to Dai County."
Syllable!
Yu Liang's fingers tapped uncontrollably, and smashed the ring inlaid with gems directly on the car board, and Zhang Yang stood up suddenly.
Xie Di, who was next to him, widened his eyes, and immediately took a deep breath and lowered his head.
Taking a deep breath, Yu Liang suddenly laughed.
"Sure enough, it's Chen Zhi, it's still that Chen Zhi, it's really unscrupulous, even the troops dare to move, and they are not afraid of Wang Jun'......"
In the middle of speaking, he suddenly stopped, and the air was full of embarrassment.
Because everyone present remembered that Chen Zhi was really not afraid of Wang Jun's investigation, the normal order was to tear his face first, and then attack the troops, which made the boss angry, and then there was a countermeasure.
can Chen Zhi be like this, but Wang Jun sent soldiers and horses first, but he couldn't hold down Chen Zhi, and now he has to be broken out a few teeth!
The embarrassing atmosphere lasted for a few breaths, and Yu Liang suddenly snorted coldly: "Go and tell the people outside, speed up!" β
