In the next few days, the Wei army went to attack the city every day, and General Baning also came every morning to invite Zhou Tianzi to watch the battle, but Zhou Bian really didn't want to get up so early. After sending Ning Yue and Wang Sunman to watch the battle on behalf www.biquge.info of the royal family for the first time, and the Marquis of Wei did not express any opinions, Zhou Bian never went to the front line again in the past few days.

Because in Zhou Bian's view, the Wei army has a single way of attacking the city, or that the siege method of this era is single, and it is enough to watch it once, there is really no need to go and watch it every time, and it is not your own command, which is very boring. Although he can also learn some combat experience of the Wei army, Zhou Bian has thought about it repeatedly, and he already knows almost everything he should know, and he has more knowledge of later generations, not to mention that a Romance of the Three Kingdoms is far beyond this era, so there is no need to invest too much effort to learn the Wei army.

In addition, Zhou Bian wanted Su Rui to also watch the battle, after all, he was a general, but Su Rui just said, I am a Korean, think about it, let Su Rui go to see others storming his homeland, it is indeed not very humane, so Zhou Bian had to give up. Every day is to nourish the spirit, and then practice strength, compete with Fan Yu for swords, fight spears with Su Rui, and play in the water with Qiao Nu Tian Qian in the evening, but it is also very full and comfortable.

In fact, the Wei army attacked the city, and it was no longer so important whether Zhou Tianzi went or not, after all, the name had been given to Wei Hou, and Wei Hou himself knew very well in his heart that he was not fighting Xinzheng for the royal family, so he didn't bother to care if Zhou Tianzi didn't come to watch the battle.

Of course, this also made Zhou Bian indirectly see why Wei Hou fought Xinzheng, because if it was really for the Zhou royal family, then Zhou Tianzi would feel very boring if he didn't watch the battle, but Wei Hou never sent others to invite him, which made the problem very clear.

In addition, it can also make Wei Hou despise himself, why not do it?

Therefore, Zhou Bian has been playing very happily for a few days, and he has begun to practice swordsmanship, etc., and the daily food in this Wei camp is excellent, and the meals are all big meat, which is also very suitable for growing the body, and it is really in vain to waste the food deliberately arranged by Wei Hou without boiling some effort.

However, Zhou Bian also pays attention to the battle situation of the Wei army every day, and the siege of the city in the past few days has not had much effect, thinking about it, attacking the capital of a country that is not much weaker than himself is naturally not something that can be completed in the morning and overnight.

Such a peaceful day lasted for five days, until it was broken by someone from Luoyang.

Originally, it was scheduled to report the news in Luoyang every ten days, but this time it was a day late, because the Wei army camp was not easy to find, and the young doctor who was ordered to bring the letter this time was not very familiar with the road on Xinzheng's side, so it was delayed.

The messenger Wang Sunman, who had been set a long time ago, was left behind by Wei Houqiang, so the son of Sima Wang Shou of Luoyang who came this time, the doctor Wang Ping, was still in the prime of life, and he was still loyal to the Zhou royal family. But Zhou Bian knew that Wang Ping was able to come this time, not because of his ability, but because of the results of the game in all aspects of the Luoyang dynasty, you must know that although Luoyang is the Taishi in charge, but the power of the old nobles in Luoyang will never dare to ignore, especially these have supported the royal family, the Tian family, the Xin family, the Tu family, etc., the Wang family is naturally one of them, obviously this time the Taishi in order to take care of the face of these people, so he chose Wang Ping, who was quite praised, to come.

Don't underestimate this to send a letter to the Son of Heaven, this is a good opportunity to get close to Tianyan, and it is the only opportunity for the Luoyang ministers to get close to the Son of Heaven, if you can leave a good impression on the king, just wait for the king to return, then it will be immediately reused, so you can imagine how many people are fighting for this opportunity in the entire Luoyang court.

At this time, the lucky person who got this opportunity, Dr. Wang Ping, knelt in the newly built cabin with a slight tremble, not daring to raise his head.

Seeing this legendary Zhou Tianzi for the first time, how could Wang Ping not be a little nervous.

It seemed that he had waited for a long time before he heard the king's voice sound.

"Wang Ping, your father Wang Shouben also knows him, Luoyang Sima, and he is quite conscientious. You've worked hard all the way here, get up and talk! ”

The king's voice is very clear and full of children's voices, but when he says it word by word, it is still full of momentum. Hearing this, Wang Ping hurriedly thanked the king and hurriedly got up, but still lowered his head.

Seeing this slightly nervous young man, Zhou Bian couldn't help laughing, completely forgetting that his body was only ten years old.

"Doctor Wang has worked hard in the suburbs of Xinzheng here, so let's talk about anything in Luoyang."

"No!" Hearing the king's words, Wang Ping took a deep breath and began to narrate, although he still did not raise his head, but he spoke much more fluently.

It turns out that during this period of time, Luoyang's resumption of production and the reconstruction of Gongyi are progressing smoothly, the mood of the military and the people is good, and there are more businessmen coming and going, Luoyang has gradually begun to regain its former prosperity, although the civilians of Luoyang do not have much purchasing power, but the royal family can hold Luoyang this time, giving these businessmen confidence enough to insist on continuing to maintain industry and even expand production in Luoyang.

There were even some shrewd businessmen who began to buy the bamboo slips in the hands of the Luoyang people, that is, the token broken into two sections, half of which was in the hands of the Luoyang people who had worked for the royal family, and the other half was in the hands of the royal family, and they could receive a certain amount of copper coins in the royal family in the future. Because in the eyes of these businessmen, the good reputation of the Zhou royal family is absolutely believable, and most of these businessmen have some dealings with the royal family, so they know better.

This is indeed a win-win move, on the one hand, the merchant will buy the token back at a lower price, and then find the royal family to redeem the copper money, in fact, it is actually a profit, on the other hand, it is also convenient for those Luoyang people who are in urgent need of money, after all, the royal family credit is also a last resort, and the merchant's move has also greatly eased the needs of those Luoyang people who have served the royal family, and also expresses the businessman's goodwill to the royal family.

Therefore, after discussing with Bai Gui and others, the Taishi not only acquiesced to this behavior, but also opened the door for the merchants, allowing the merchants to take the tokens to the relevant departments of the royal family to check, so as not to make fakes.

Hearing this, Zhou Bian smiled slightly, Luoyang will develop in the future, it seems that most of them are inseparable from these businessmen, or if they rejuvenate the country with business, it is also a development avenue in a landless land.

It's just that Zhou Bian soon realized a problem, if there are Luoyang people who copy the bamboo slips themselves, and then sell one to the merchant who bought it, so that now the merchant can't find the problem when he goes to the royal family to check it, and when the royal family begins to have the money to buy back the token, he will go to redeem the money first, then it will cause the merchant to redeem the money uniformly, there will be a duplicate phenomenon and be refused to redeem the money, if this situation really occurs, it will only affect the relationship of mutual trust between the merchant and the Zhou royal family, Then the impact on Luoyang business could be catastrophic.

And this is still very feasible, although no two masters have the same texture, but when redeeming money, no one will look so carefully.

Don't look at the simplicity of the people in this era, but driven by interests, it is difficult to guarantee that some people will have crooked thoughts, so they still have to guard against it, don't you see Bai Gui They opened the door for the merchants who bought to check the tokens? But how can this be prevented? Obviously, Bai Gui didn't realize it, or didn't let this Wang Ping say it.

Thinking of this, Zhou Bian couldn't help frowning, so much so that he didn't even listen to what Wang Ping said next about how the people of Luoyang were grateful to Dade and how they missed the king.

After losing his mind, Zhou Bian raised his eyes to look at Wang Ping, who was still talking in front of him, and waved his hand to signal him to pause, but found that Wang Ping, who was bowing his head, did not see it, Zhou Bian was suddenly a little speechless, thinking that this is the attitude that a courtier in this era should have, so Zhou Bian stopped Wang Ping's continued narration.

Wang Ping looked up at the king in a little surprise, and then quickly lowered his head, "The king, but did your subordinates say anything wrong and offended the king?" ”

"No, this king is just thinking about one thing." Zhou Bian replied.

Immediately after that, Zhou Bian fell into deep thought, but soon, Zhou Bian thought of a countermeasure, that is, if a businessman came to check the purchased token, he would engrave a mark on the token, so as to prevent someone from taking the duplicate token to redeem the money first, and find out which people had crooked thoughts at once.

Yes, just do it, write to the Taishi today, and ask them to pay attention, although it is a little late, but it can save one or two. Thinking of this, Zhou Bian couldn't help but clap his hands, and couldn't help but rejoice in his eagerness.

It startled Wang Ping, bowed down and said, "What's the matter with the king?" ”

"It's okay, you can continue." After figuring out the key points, Zhou Bian was in a good mood.

"No, my lord. Just now I kept talking about Luoyang's happiness, and then my subordinates are going to say a sad thing about Luoyang. At this point, the king paused and looked up at the king.

"Anyway, the king is listening."

"No, the king, General Pang Xingpang has gone."

"Go? Where did it go? Zhou Bian didn't react for a while.

"Back to the king, General Pang died on July 25 due to an arrow wound, and before leaving, he shouted, "King, the minister is incompetent!" Screamed three times and died. General Pang's coffin was parked for four days, during which the Queen Mother sent Princess Liu to come for her, and the Taishi Bai went to worship and worship, and heard the Pang family say that they originally wanted to wait for the Pang nephews of Anyi to come, but the weather was unbearable, so they were buried on the 29th according to the will of the Taishi and others, and the land given by the Queen Mother was buried in the shadow of the mountain. ”

It turned out that Pang Xing had passed away, hearing this, Zhou Bian put away the expression on his face, stood up suddenly, bowed his head slightly to the west and mourned in silence for three minutes, and then sat down slowly.

Although Pang Xing is not a fierce general, nor is he a wise general, but he is a loyal general, not only absolutely loyal to the king, but also loyal to all the orders of the king, for the training of the royal family, and the recovery of Luoyang, he has made great contributions, but unfortunately he went like this.

knew that people would die in battle, but after the Han army retreated, he was still glad that none of his capable subordinates died, but he didn't think that it should be on Pang Xing after all.

After a long time, Zhou Bian sighed and said, "This king will keep it in mind, and order General Pang to be posthumously named the upper doctor, and his son Meng will be the lower doctor, and enjoy the royal family." ”

Hereditary inheritance is still inevitable in this era, which Zhou Bian has long thought about, that is, subtracting two levels per generation, which not only takes care of the heroes, but also avoids the long-term existence of moths.

"Your Majesty, General Pang, has thanked the king! It's just that Pang Xing has no sons, only two daughters, so he has to wait for Anyi's nephew to come to the funeral, but he has long heard that his nephew is studying abroad, and most of them are not in Anyi at the moment. Wang Ping replied.

"Oh, what's the name of his nephew? If it is really the meaning of the Pang family, this king can consider giving the title of doctor to Pang Xingna's nephew. Zhou Bian said casually.

"The king is so sympathetic to General Pang and the Pang family, and his subordinates have thanked the king on behalf of General Pang. Back to the king, Pang Xing's nephew is called Pang Juan, I don't know where to go to study, can the king stay until he returns from his studies, so that he can serve our king. Wang Ping replied respectfully.

Zhou Bian was taken aback when he heard this, can he not be surprised, and suddenly heard the name of a historical celebrity, and was so shocked that Zhou Bian actually stood up again, "Pang Juan, but a trickle?" ”

Suddenly, seeing the king's violent reaction, Wang Ping was also a little surprised, and after looking up, he lowered his head and said, "Back to the king, it is this name, this Pang Juan is only a teenager now, I don't know where to study, and I don't know when I can go back?" ”

"Then his family doesn't know? Teenagers just going out like that? Zhou Bian asked.

"Back to the king, this subordinate just knew that my father had a good relationship with General Pang, and I heard General Pang say when chatting, this Pang Juan has a strong personality since he was a child, good at fighting with others, and he must fight for the first place in everything, when Fang was fifteen years old the year before last, he fought with more than a dozen idlers in the city, and he died. Before General Pang died, he sent people to Anyi to look for Pang Juan, wanting to see him, but he didn't want to return home. ”

Obviously, Pang Xing wanted to find a way out for his son and nephew in the Zhou royal family, but Zhou Bian didn't continue to think about this, but continued to ask.

"When he went out alone at the age of fifteen, isn't his family worried? Have you ever looked for it? ”

"Back to the king, after his family dealt with the dead idler, they also looked around Anyi, but they didn't find it. However, his family is not very worried, that Pang Juan has been good martial arts since he was a child, and he can put down an ordinary big man at the age of twelve, and if he has a stick in his hand at the age of fifteen, four or five strong men cannot get close, otherwise he can't kill one of the ten idlers, and he has nothing to do. His family is only worried that he will cause another death outside, and they will not be able to get out. ”

Hearing this, Zhou Bian nodded, "It's also a man, and when he returns from school, he can serve in front of the army." ”

Although he said so, Zhou Bian was in trouble in his heart, most of this was Pang Juan who left his name in the annals of history, but he didn't think that he was the nephew of his general, and I don't know if this Pang Juan would meet Guiguzi, and when Pang Juan finishes his studies, should he take him over according to General Pang's wishes? Or is Pang Juan willing to come?

This Pang Juan is narrow-minded and likes fame, but he still learns from Guiguzi, if he uses it properly, most of them can still be used, do you want to find it? Also, after finding Pang Juan, do you still want to bring Sun Bin here?

Zhou Bian suddenly felt that this crossing had become more and more interesting, thinking of this, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but smile, which provoked Wang Ping to wait for the king's reply for a long time, and couldn't help but raise his head, just to see that playful smile.
