283. The deceased visited

Before Fang Li moved the capital, Luoyang, in addition to being the capital of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, was the only place that could avoid war, and it was also a place where all kinds of merchants gathered.

At the same time, because it is no longer possible to participate in the competition in the world, the officials of the Zhou family have long been rotten to the roots, the officials and businessmen collude with the people, and the taxes are particularly heavy, and the scene of frozen bones on the stinky road of Zhumen wine and meat can be seen everywhere.

After moving the capital, Fang Li moved the Tang official system to Luoyang, although the officials of the Zhou room were still there, but the real people in charge became the three provinces and six departments and various yamen, all the people of the Zhou family were willing to register the household registration of the Tang State, they could be included in the protection scope of the Tang State, and the tax and conscription were not only halved, but if the children of the family could make military achievements, they could soar to heaven and join the ranks of the scholars.

For a time, the crowd in Luoyang City was excited, and the people rushed to the designated place to register as Tang people, and enthusiastically signed up to join the army.

At the same time, Fang Li also strengthened the control of businessmen, put an end to the collusion between officials and businessmen, and protected honest businessmen regardless of size.

After the carriage and horse drove into the straight street, Han Fei almost couldn't believe that it was Luoyang in front of him. The bureaucrats who were bullying everywhere disappeared without a trace, and were replaced by unsmiling groups of Tang soldiers.

The complexion of the people is much better than in previous years, and in previous years, you can see everywhere the children of the gentlemen who spend their days drinking and drinking, and they don't know where they have gone, and there are pedestrians coming and going everywhere, and the whole city is full of life and hope.

"It's so much better than South Korea." Han Fei had mixed feelings when he saw all this, "Qin Guo's cultivation and war to control the people, although brutal but effective, Tang Gong is more clever than him, there is such a strong enemy, how should South Korea be good?"

I hope that the news of Han Gong's dispatch of the Qin State has not yet reached Luoyang, otherwise it will be difficult to reach the sky if he wants to reconcile with the Tang State on this trip.

The group soon arrived outside the Tang Mansion, Han Fei commanded the soldiers who escorted the gifts to transport them directly to the Tang State Treasury, and then followed Xun Yu into the gate.

Han Fei lowered his head slightly, and his heart was even more awe-inspiring, the Tang Army even the guards guarding the gate for the lord were elite, what should the soldiers of the real battle formation do against the enemy?

In the lobby, Fang Li and the other civil and military forces had been waiting for a long time, Xun Yu took Han Fei and drove straight in, through the crowd, Xun Yu bowed his hand and saluted: "Lord, Han envoy Han Fei to meet you." ”

Han Fei also followed to the end: "Foreign Minister Han Fei has seen Tang Gong, congratulations to Tang Gong for his noble son!" ”

After waiting for a while and not responding, Han Fei raised his eyes suspiciously, and when he saw that Fang Li, who was above, had an indifferent face, he couldn't help but chuckle in his heart.

It turned out that seeing Xun Yu come out to welcome Shili to express courtesy, even if he knew that this trip would not be easy, in Han Fei's imagination, Fang Li should still be polite and polite on the surface.

But now it doesn't seem to be like that, the sights from both sides are full of anger, and Fang Li's attitude is also incomprehensible.

After waiting for a while, there was still no sound of shouting from above, Han Fei had no choice but to maintain a bowed posture, and said the words of the invitation again: "Korean envoy Han Fei, on the order of Han Gong, congratulate Han Gong on his noble son!" ”

Fang Li reacted a little at this time, but it was not a polite exchange, but a cold question: "Han Fei, my Tang Dynasty and South Korea are not allied countries, and the widow has a son, what does it have to do with Han Gong?" ”

Han Fei straightened up, and the expression on his face was neither humble nor arrogant: "Since the establishment of the Tang State, foreign ministers have sent envoys to Xingyang, and Han and Tang have become friendly countries. ”

"Misunderstanding? Han Envoy is really cheeky. Chen Deng, who was originally a scholar of the Ministry of Rites and was later reappointed as a servant, sneered, "My Datang has repeatedly sent people to South Korea for help at critical moments, and South Korea not only did not save him when he saw death, but also made matters worse and evacuated the permanent mission in Xingyang, dare to ask General Han, can there be such a friendly country in the world?" ”

Chen Deng called Han Fei a "general", of course, referring not to Han Fei's official position in South Korea, but to the official position given by Fang Li - General of the Military Division, so this title also means that the Tang State still regards Han Fei as their own.

Han Fei's face was a little red, this matter was indeed disgraceful to South Korea, if the Tang Kingdom was defeated, it would be forgotten, but it was a complete victory, and South Korea's face was slapped with a bang, and it was too late to regret it now.

But standing here, Han Fei still had to explain to his lord: "This lord is a clear guide, my lord is definitely not a man who has an opinion and cannot be saved, it is really Rong Di's repeated offenses, and South Korea is not a big country, and the army is really stretched." ”

Han Fei didn't believe this, and Chen Deng only snorted coldly when he heard this, and he didn't bother to answer at all.

Gao Shun interjected at this time: "General Han, Duke Han wants to congratulate the little prince on the full moon, won't he just bring General Han alone, a mouth, right?" ”

"Naturally not, all the congratulatory gifts have been sent to the treasury." Han Fei took out the silk book from his sleeve, "This is a gift list, and I invite Tang Gong to look at it." ”

The waiter trotted down to take the gift list, and respectfully handed it to Fang Li.

"300,000 stones of grain and grass, 500 taels of gold, 30 pairs of jade pearls, and 20 beauties, is Han Gong fooling the widow?" Fang Li glanced at the silk book and threw it on the case, and smiled disdainfully, "There is nothing substantial at all, the widow's son is worth these things?" ”

Han Fei arched his hand and said, "I don't know what Tang Gong wants?" ”

"The city, the people, the land." Fang Li lazily stretched out his hand and gestured twice, "At least a few cities have to be sent to show that Han Gong wants to reconcile with my Tang Dynasty, right?" ”

"yes, what's the use of just taking money?"

"If you don't give away a city, Han Gong is too stingy!"

As soon as Fang Li's words fell, all the civil and military officers echoed their words, and even discussed which cities should be wanted, as the full moon gift of the little prince.

Every word was full of arrogance and malice, Fang Li watched Han Fei's reaction with cold eyes, only to find that he didn't even move his eyebrows, let alone show an embarrassed or angry expression.

The object of sarcasm didn't even react, and everyone slowly began to feel bored, and their voices gradually became quieter.

When the hall was completely quiet, Fang Li saw Han Fei bowing deeply with an expressionless face, and just when he thought that the other party was finally about to refute it, he saw that his lips didn't move, and he turned around and left.

Fang Li frowned, what the hell is this Han Fei playing?

Seeing that he was about to really step out of the gate, Han Fei didn't slow down at all, and he looked like he had made up his mind, Xun Yu had to open his mouth to stop people: "General Han stays!" ”

Han Fei paused, turned around, and actually looked puzzled: "What did Prime Minister Xun call Han Fei for?" ”

Xun Yu was stunned, and then cried and laughed: "The audience is not over yet, where is General Han going?" ”

Han Fei's expression was even more puzzled: "Of course, I returned to China to tell my lord, Datang is ready to fight with me." ”

"When did the widow say that he would declare war on South Korea?" Fang Li's face sank, "You are acting like this, are you humiliating my Datang?" ”

"Han Fei didn't dare." Han Fei finally turned around, took two steps forward and stood in front again, his expression didn't show a hint of joke, "The people and the land are the foundation of a country, and Tang Gong asked South Korea for these two things, didn't he tell the foreign minister that the Tang army was determined to fight with South Korea, and let the foreign minister quickly inform my lord?" ”

I didn't expect Han Fei's attitude to be so tough, Fang Li lowered his face coldly and didn't speak, and the main hall fell silent for a while.

Under the strong pressure, Han Fei was still awe-inspiring, and looked at Fang Li calmly.

After a while, Fang Li suddenly smiled: "General Han, don't worry, the widow is just joking, Han Gong is saluting, it's too late for the widow to thank him, how can he declare war." ”

"Yes, it was the foreign minister who misunderstood, and asked Tang Gong to forgive him." Han Fei also showed a faint smile, and climbed down the steps, and the atmosphere eased instantly.

"I haven't seen you for a long time, and my husband's temper is getting bigger and bigger." Fang Li said meaningfully, "The widow originally thought that Mr. was willing to make friends with my Datang." ”

only said Han Fei, and did not mention Han Wu in half a word, which was obviously testing Han Fei's attitude towards Tang Guo.

But Han Fei ignored Fang Li's temptation at all, and solemnly surrendered his hand: "South Korea is sincerely friendly with the Tang State, but the foreign minister dared to remind Tang Gong that the Koreans don't want to fight, but they are not afraid of war!" ”

"Okay, the widow has written it down." Fang Li's smile remained unchanged, and his tone became more and more gentle, "Please go back to the post house for a while, in a few days it will be the full moon ceremony for children, and Mr. must participate." ”

"Foreign Minister Xie Tang is heavy." Han Fei pushed it to the end, and walked out with his head held high in front of everyone.

It wasn't until Han Fei's figure completely disappeared out of sight that Fang Li sank down again: "I didn't expect Han Fei to be so stubborn, and the widow specially named him a military general, hoping that he would be able to devote himself to the Tang State to some extent." ”

"When South Korea is destroyed, Han Fei will naturally be able to use it for the Lord." Cheng Yu, who had just returned, reminded him, "Han Fei has already found out the attitude of the lord, and asked the lord to keep an eye on him, so as to prevent the news from reaching Han Wu's ears." ”

Fang Li nodded: "Wen He, this matter will be handed over to the internal guards." ”

Jia Xu clenched his fists: "Don't worry, the lord promises that Han Fei won't be able to pass on a word!" ”

"There's one more thing." Fang Li's gaze moved to Sun Ce, "Do a full set of plays, Bo Fu, you go to invite Han Fei to visit the Gancheng camp tomorrow, you must know everything, and you must say everything." ”

Sun Ce came out and saluted: "No! ”

Fang Li looked at Gao Shun again: "There is no need to hide it tomorrow, how to practice and how to practice, Han Fei is a great talent of the Legalist family, although he is not familiar with military affairs, he can see through it at a glance if he is pretending to be a person, but the matter of using Gancheng to transport troops cannot be let him know for the time being." ”

Gao Shun should be.

After everything was settled, Fang Li asked the others to step down and perform their duties, leaving Xun Yu and Jia Xu alone.
