Early the next morning, Chen Zhi had just gotten up to deal with official business, when he heard someone from outside coming to report-

"Lu Zhi, a staff member under the command of the King of Jiangdu, asks to see the general!"

Chen Zhi hadn't spoken yet, and the bundle of Jiao, who was waiting on the side, smiled first: "Lu Zhi? Finally here, he is in the camp of the king of Jiangdu, and his influence is not small, this time, if you can have any negotiations and tacit understanding with him, you can also increase our influence in Jizhou! ”

Shu Jiao this person, born in the Hebei family, the Shu family behind him also has a few figures, the family background is not bad, but compared with the top few families, there are still many gaps, but in Jizhou is deep-rooted, the influence is not small.

At the beginning, Chen Zhi just decided to go north, and the Shu family sent Shu Jiao over, which can be seen.

With the stabilization of Chen Zhi's position, the status of Shu Jiao in the Shu family has gradually increased, and from the original dependence, it has slowly become a refuge, and now he is the master of the General's Mansion, which can be regarded as entering the core of Chen Zhi's team and mastering the authority, so he naturally wants to further expand the power of the Zhengbei General's Mansion, and his status will naturally rise.

Therefore, as soon as he took Youzhou City here, he couldn't wait to come over and plan, to bring this Youzhou Zhuo County, as well as the Yu County on the side, these two county towns that have been taken down, into the jurisdiction of the Zhengbei General's Mansion and connect them into one.

However, this is not just his personal thoughts, long before the war, Chen Zhi made certain preparations, and at the beginning of the launch, when Chen Zhi assigned tasks to his subordinates, in addition to assigning the generals in charge of the troops and horses, he also assigned some tasks to the civilian officials under his command, including the part of the follow-up after the occupation.

Shujiao came over this time, and he was also adhering to this instruction.

Like Guo Zhi, Lu Zhi, and even Wang Ren and other people from Jixian County, after learning that Chen Zhi suddenly attacked Fan Yang and captured Wang Jun alive, Chen Zhi's henchmen and close ministers of that county were all shocked, and then they were ecstatic.

It's just that this news is still blocked to a certain extent, but the upper echelons of the General's Mansion know that it has not spread on a large scale.

Subsequently, under Chen Zhi's order, many officials rushed non-stop to sort out the situation in Youzhou City and plan the process.

Since the war, he has hardly slept peacefully, and after coming to Youzhou, he has been busy for a day and a night, and he has not closed his eyes at all, at his age, it must be exhausting to stay up like this, but his people are now in good spirits, and they don't look sleepy!

As soon as the news of Lu Zhi's visit came at this time, he immediately became a little more energetic, imagining the situation, and his eyebrows danced.

"That's right," Chen Zhi nodded and put down the paperwork in his hand, "Lu Zhi is here, on behalf of the king of Jiangdu, his previous deeds are also under the control of secret spies, Jizhou has many envoys, but compared to Lu Zhi, others are not ranked, so this person is really capable of influencing the decision of the king of Jiangdu, in the future, when we master Youzhou, we will face the chaos in Jizhou, and the relationship with the king of Jiangdu is to be considered." ”

When Shu Jiao heard this, he also nodded, and said excitedly: "Lu Zhi's influence in Jizhou is really not small, and he is also from the Fanyang Lu family, in fact, he is a good middleman. ”

He was about to say more, but suddenly he stumbled and shook.

Chen Zhi saw it, and couldn't help but say: "Shu Jun, you have been busy these days, and you haven't been able to rest, this is not good, it is going to hurt your vitality, now the files of Youzhou City have also been sorted out, and the five thousand soldiers and horses are also in full swing, the overall situation is set, there will be no recurrence, you might as well go and rest first." ”

Seeing that Shu Jiao had the meaning of refusal, Chen Zhi smiled and said: "Don't worry, this situation in Youzhou can be described as complicated, where can I deal with it alone, Yang Yuan and Ran Zhan are okay to fight, but it will be difficult to sort out government affairs, your help is indispensable, and when you recover your spirit, there is still a heavy burden, well, and this Mr. Lu Zhilu, let him wait first, dry him, after all, there are still people coming, there are more people coming, let's check and balance each other, bargain, a little more leeway." ”

Hearing Chen Zhi say this, it was not easy to insist on it, so he dealt with the important matters at hand first, and then said goodbye and left, and returned to the mansion arranged by Chen Zhi for him.

This mansion is not small, two in and two out, the inside is elegantly arranged, it is a mansion of the Fan Yang Kuai clan, the patriarch of the Kuai clan and the people of the Lu family visited Chen Zhi before, but they did not see him, and they were apprehensive in their hearts, and they offered a lot of things, and this house is one of them.

In order to comfort the Fan Yang family, Chen Zhi accepted them all, after all, these families were still worried, what did Chen Zhi think of them, if they didn't accept the gift at this time, it would inevitably make them misjudge, and then make trouble behind their backs, causing extraneous branches.

However, Chen Zhi accepted it here, but it was handed over to his subordinates, Yang Yuan and Ran Zhan naturally had gains, and none of the several meritorious generals under their command were lost, and civil officials like Shu Jiao were also wiped out, but this mansion was not given to him, but just let him live here.

Even so, Shu Jiao also felt quite honored, and at the same time saw the future prospects, so he was more and more energetic, and after returning to the mansion, he didn't feel sleepy for a while, but his steward came to persuade him to rest early.

"How do I sleep?" Shu Jiao smiled all over his face, "I didn't expect the general's situation to be so good!" This is not a small good, it is a great good! When I was the head of the General's Mansion, I also wrote from my family to encourage me, talking about my cousin, and they all said that I should be at ease for two years, and when I was not weaker than him, they would never have thought that I, the head of the General's Mansion, could interfere in the affairs of a state in a blink of an eye, and it was Youzhou! ”

Speaking of this, his expression became more and more excited.

The housekeeper also knew what his master meant.

He smiled and complimented: "The power and roots of the Shu family were originally in the land of Hebei, Jizhou has a foundation, and Youzhou also has branches, the current war situation is certain, Youzhou is included in the jurisdiction of the Zhengbei General's Mansion, it is almost a sure thing, the master of the General's Mansion is the main book, it turned out to be to assist the general and deal with the official affairs of a county, and in a blink of an eye, it has become to deal with several counties in a state, which is really amazing!" ”

"It's the general who is really amazing! I can't wait for the light, I just have to do my part in the future and share his worries," Shu Jiao first mentioned two sentences, and then said with a smile: "Of course, returning to the hometown is also what celebrities want, the general's mansion is so expanded, and my family is also under it, of course my status has risen!" ”
