Chapter 37: To the county Yaxue Yan misunderstanding to Yazhou will encounter a coincidence
never thought that this snow goose and Xiaocui would come to this county office, but the two of them were greatly surprised; originally wanted to surprise him, but in an instant, the abyss was abyssed.
It turned out that the people of Huangshui lived and worked in peace and contentment over the years, and there were not many things in the county. This Wang Xuance has nothing to do, so he often eats and drinks with Zhou Chen and Yao Wang Xiaomei. On this day, King Yao was concerned about the matter, and hurried back to the village after eating half of it, leaving the four of them.
When Xue Yan and Xiao Cui arrived at the county office, it happened that the four of them were drinking. Because the Miao girl has always been very arrogant, and this little sister is even more spicy woman, showing the bold and open nature of the Miao people.
Take advantage of the drunkenness and talk about the place where it rises. She regarded this Wang Xuance as the King of Yao, and involuntarily put this hand on his shoulder, and hugged this Wang Xuance, Zhou Chen and the others watched this scene and hurriedly prepared to pull it away.
At this moment, the snow goose and the little jade fish rushed in, bumped into several of them in such ugliness, and immediately looked at each other. Looking at it again, this Wang Xuance was already so close to a stunning woman in a daze, and he was suddenly jealous. I never thought that I would come all the way to see such a heart-wrenching scene. The warmth in my heart was instantly poured with a bucket of ice water, like a needle prick and a knife slash.
Although the women of the Li family are elegant, they are discerning in their work; However, the snow goose, who was about to go crazy at this time, was stopped by Xiao Cui.
With a few coughs, Xiaocui opened her mouth teasingly: "You have a good life, you are accompanied by beautiful women, and there are beautiful things to accompany you."
Hearing this, this lively scene suddenly became cold. First, Zhou Zeng stood up stupidly and looked at Xue Yan and Xiaocui. Tightly Chen Maocai also kept squeezing his eyebrows and reminding this Wang Xuance and his little sister. But the two of them seemed to be fine, and they still talked and laughed and pushed the cup and changed the lamp.
At this time, Xue Yan's anger rose from his heart, and Xiao Cui was also vicious, and the four angry eyes glared at Wang Xuance fiercely. provoked Chen Maocai to kick him in a hurry. But this Wang Xuance said with drunkenness: "What are you kicking me for...... Before he finished speaking, he looked up and saw Snow Goose and Xiaocui, and was immediately dumbfounded...... With a shake of his head, the wine was half awake in an instant......
This stunned is a long-lost reunion, a long-lost thought, and a deep apology. I didn't expect the snow geese to come to this yellow water...... He stammered and asked, "Snow Goose, you, why are you here......?"
Xue Yan then teased with sarcastic words: "I, why can't I come, I don't want to let me see such a scene, I don't want to disturb your gentle country!" ”
This Xiaocui saw that at this time, the little sister was still drunk, and pulled her hand on Wang Xuance's shoulder. Angrily, he walked over and pulled her hand over; I just wanted to complain to her, but what she responded to was: The little sister was lying on the table and had fallen asleep. made her face full of helplessness and embarrassment.
Wang Xuance suddenly woke up half of his wine when he saw this scene, and hurriedly explained: "This thing, it's not like you think, this, this, this ......" stammered, and really didn't know how to explain it to Xue Yan, so he could only pat his head with his hand again and again in frustration!
At this time, Zhou Chen and the others watched this scene, and the wine was almost sober. So, I explained this matter to Snow Goose in detail from beginning to end. Wang Xuance heard what they said very reasonably, so he hurriedly echoed: "Yes, yes, yes, that's the case, because it's too familiar, this Miao family woman is usually very arrogant, they are all brothers, you must not be wrong"! Between the words, he was already anxious and sweating profusely.
After their explanation, Xue Yan seemed to understand a little, and she was a little calmer in her heart, maybe she really wronged him. looked at Wang Xuance, who was anxious and at a loss, and laughed stupidly with Xiaocui covering his mouth. This smile immediately resolved the embarrassment just now.
At this moment, King Yao hurried back, and when he saw that the little sister was lying here asleep, he immediately took her away with apologies. In an instant, the knot that everyone should have was dissolved......
At this time, Wang Xuance thought about the scene just now: why should he be in a hurry to explain to Xue Yan, in his eyes, Xue Yan and his little sister are all close relatives, and they are all regarded as sisters, and they have no children's affection at all. Although Xue Yan has given him a lot of help, it also makes his lonely heart often ripple, especially the little Xipa, those fifteen words: when preparing things, easy to be calm, to be sober, believe in the father, believe in justice. But why is it so gaffe today......
But he couldn't think about it any longer. But seeing a feather Lin Lang at this time, he came to this Huangshui County Ya and shouted loudly: "Huangshui ordered Wang Xuance to take the order!" ”
As soon as he heard this, Wang Xuance hurriedly ordered the people to open the middle door and set off a cannon to welcome the order.
But when he saw this Yu Lin Lang, he took out a bright yellow fold and read: "Under the door." Huang Shui ordered Wang Xuance to be outstanding in his political performance, and he was immediately awarded the merit examination. After arranging everything in Huangshui, he set off for Beijing and had another appointment. On the way back to Beijing, you should travel along the border between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo into Beijing! ”
Everyone immediately kowtowed and thanked him, and all of them were full of joy, congratulating Wang Xuance on his ascension!
After waking up, Wang Xuance pondered this holy decree. Why is there an extra sentence about traveling from the border to Beijing, what does this mean?
Things have to go back to before January. I saw that in the Hongwen Hall in the majestic Daxing Palace, Li Shimin was hooking up the death penalty list submitted by the Criminal Department, and he was very relieved to see that the two bandits in the file were exterminated by a county order in one fell swoop! The Ministry immediately transferred Wang Xuance's resume, and saw that he had such merits in governing Huangshui, and that the history of Rongzhou was so relieved. Immediately interested in this young man in his twenties, and at the same time ordered Shangshu Province to be included in the list of excellent assessments.
At this time, Li Daozong had already been renamed the king of Jiangxia as the king of Jiangxia, mainly responsible for the affairs of the southwestern domains. Since the third year of Zhenguan, the king of Tubo Songtsengan succeeded to the throne as a young man, he showed the attitude of old and serious, and the style of governing the country was quite obvious; After all these years of careful governance, Tubo is also strong and strong, and the people are united, and it has become the biggest threat to the southwest of the Tang Dynasty! Therefore, Li Daozong wrote a letter, admonishing that we should always be vigilant that Tibet is growing stronger, and if it can be differentiated, it will be strong and divided; If not, we should understand the close relationship between the southwestern Zhufan and Tibet; Learn about the detailed information of the border between the two countries, and add more bargaining chips for future military and political struggles, so as to prevent problems before they occur!
After Li Shimin opened up the Hexi Corridor in the ninth year of Zhenguan, the camel bells of the Silk Road were constantly ringing, and envoys from all countries often appeared in Chang'an City. It was such a relaxed political atmosphere that also made the news of the decrees of the Tang Dynasty spread to the ears of the envoys in an instant. I heard that Li Daozong's precautionary measures also deeply agreed! However, the dispatch of high-ranking officials of the imperial court will instantly increase the tension between the two countries. After thinking about it, it seems appropriate to send an official who is capable and not suitable for attention!
After thinking about it for a while, Li Shimin chose this Wang Xuance. After all, he is just a small yellow water order, and he will definitely not arouse the vigilance of Tubo. And on the southwest border, he has outstanding political achievements, so it is needless to say that he has ability. When this idea was proposed, Li Daozong naturally readily agreed. So there was such a purpose. Because the purpose of this trip is only to understand the situation in Tibet through the border, and the matter is not careless and urgent, there is no focus of investigation!
How do you say that the cow is the cow, this Wang Xuance, on the second day, figured out the intention of this holy decree, and he has already understood it. In recent years, Tibet has been growing, and it should be that the imperial court needs to investigate the situation on the border, and this plan is only possible in order to conceal it and prevent trouble before it happens!
After some detailed planning and distribution, Zhou Zeng focused on investigating the specific customs of the border, and Chen Maocai focused on checking the terrain and the use of troops on both sides of the border. Wang Xuance is responsible for the overall coordination. After this division of labor, everyone divided up and prepared to go.
At the time of the handover, Jiang Xiancheng and the officials showed reluctance. Wang Xuance also understood their deep meaning, but there is no banquet in the world! Over the years, under the leadership of Wang Xuance, the entire county government has not only taken on a new look, but the entire team of officials has been united. The love of each is in endless words!
Jiang Xiancheng is not bad, just because he couldn't eat enough before, he also started to be greedy, and Zhang Sihai and other officials were born in poverty, so they naturally understand the people. Over the years, they have also been allocated land, food, and their lives have become more steady, so they want to do more for the court and do more things for the people. Therefore, when Wang Xuance was about to leave, he suddenly felt like he was missing a guide, and he was reluctant.
After a while, everyone cleaned up and stopped, and the group got up and hit the road!
But as soon as he got out of the county office, he found that the people from near and far, as well as the brothers of Miao Village and Yao Village, heard that Wang Xuance was about to leave office, and spontaneously came to the county government to bid him off, and the love of fists made him very moved! Although he has not done too many earth-shattering things for the people of Huangshui in the past few years, this is a starting point on his life path! In the face of the people's affection, he also wanted to stay, but he had to go, this walk may never see each other, but deep in each other's hearts, there is always such a persistence and longing!
I saw King Yao take the old wine brewed by the Yao family and see Wang Xuance off; The little sister, who is usually very aggressive, also has a little more sadness at this time, and the three of them pin this kindness on this old wine!
Lao Miao Wang also came to say goodbye with infinite friendship. He knows him, and he knows him. Although everything is in plain sight, Wang Xuance still said: "Thank you King Miao for coming to see you off in person, Xuan Ce is grateful!" "It's a long way to talk.
King Miao hurriedly bowed his body, helped Wang Xuance up and said: "Mingfu is so gone, let me wait for a lot of missing, Miao Village is your home, come back and see if you are homesick" There is a trace of reluctance and pity in the words!
The five of them embarked on a new journey in the farewell of Huangshui's father. The setting of the heart is a new beginning, when the road of life from one coordinate to another, we should work hard against the sun. Even if we don't know what the road ahead is at the moment, as long as we keep our eyes on the goal and move forward, there will always be results.
It is said that this group of five people went out of Rongzhou, went to Liuzhou, traveled to Guizhou, and went all the way to the west; The moonlight scene passed from Panzhou to Langzhou to Macheng, and then went all the way north to this Huizhou, and then went north again, and arrived in this Yazhou after a few days.
Because this Yazhou is located in the southwest border, it has belonged to Shu since the pre-Qin period, and since the four years of Sui Renshou, it is famous for the Ya'an Mountain in the territory, plus the frequent trade on the southwest border, so it is specially set up Yazhou; It is adjacent to Tibet in the west, so it has the title of the throat of western Sichuan and the gateway of Tibet. After years of development, it has become an important cultural town for border trade and exchange between Tang and Tu.
On the road to Yazhou, a group of people rode a high-headed horse, but saw that this week had recorded the customs and folklore seen all the way: there is the comfort of Guilin in the front, the wildness of Macheng in the back, and the tranquility of Tusi in Huizhou, which is not today in Yazhou It seems that it is relatively harmonious, after all, the people do not have any major ethnic contradictions, not only good for border management, even if there is a war in the future, they can also rely on each other, and it is worth relying on.
Along the way, Chen Maocai also made the terrain survey of the border clear: where it is suitable for hiding, where it is suitable for raiding, it is suitable for fighting against the water, and how many troops are stationed on the periphery of the border are also clear at a glance, detailed and clear.
Growing up in the Central Plains, Snow Goose not only understands the techniques of farming, but also understands the need for ploughs and carts. Along the way, when he saw that the people here only used hoes and one-legged carts, he was not only deeply surprised, but also did not expect that farming in this border land was so backward.
Although the people lived a relatively comfortable life and could eat well, such a method of cultivation was also a waste of resources. Therefore, he planned to tell his father what he had seen when he returned. It is not only necessary to promote agriculture in the border areas, but also to change this backward mode of production.
Although Buddhism has been introduced to the East for many centuries, it is still difficult to find traces in this frontier land, and Taoism and local beliefs still dominate. Today coincides with the fifteenth day of the lunar calendar, and some villagers have already taken their harvested specialties and occupied a place on the roadside to trade. Because of the large number of people, although the government has been prepared for a long time, the number of troops is too limited, and sometimes it seems to be much more disorderly. So these endless streams of villagers make Yazhou City look a lot more crowded.
Of course, Wang Xuance also had insight into all this, and it was engraved in his mind in detail. Although this journey has been peaceful, in this Yazhou land, I can't help but have an extra heart.
A few people were talking and laughing, when they suddenly saw a large circle of people gradually forming in front of them. Because I have seen a lot of such things along the way, it is either cockfighting or dog fighting, plus some people who go to the rivers and lakes to perform and juggle. Although every time they encounter such a situation, they will give some charity, but when they see more, they will be lacking. Today, however, this seems to be different......
