After a long conversation that lasted for nearly an hour and a half, Zhang Xing said that he left Feng Changqing to obey, but Feng Changqing promised in his mouth that when the servant who came to take him to the guest room left to stay, he couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive. If you want to say that he is familiar with the four towns of Anxi, he naturally has full confidence when he grew up there. However, he lives in the four towns of Anxi, and he can't get in with the doorways, but he can't get in touch with many high-level things, and even he doesn't know much about the current pattern of the government and the opposition.

The problem is that Du Shiyi is the envoy of Longyoujie, and he has never been in charge of the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate, and Zhang Xingnai is the secretary, not a military general, if he is from his side, how many possibilities are Du Shiyi's blue eyes?

When he stepped into the guest room, he was still thinking about this problem absent-mindedly, and even forgot to close the door with his backhand. After finding a seat and sitting down, he began to reflect on his words and deeds today. It can be said that he traveled all the way east from Qiuzi, but he saw that the alien soldiers and horse thieves who were rampant at the beginning gradually disappeared, and what was more conspicuous was the border army of the Tang Dynasty, with bright clothes and bright looks, which left a deep impression on him. Moreover, compared with Anxi, who uses more Hu soldiers, Helong's soldiers and horses are mostly Tang cavalry, and he has seen too many Hu merchants and Hu horses showing off his might, so he naturally asked around who the first brave general in Helong was.

If it was ten or fifteen years earlier, people would have answered him with Guo Zhiyun, Guo Qianqian, and Wang Hui; If it had been five years earlier, people would have chosen one of the two people, Li Yi, the king of Xin'an, and Zhang Shouqi, the governor of Guazhou, to answer him; But now...... Wang Zhonghe's glorious record of breaking tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in Tubo with 300 horses has not been forgotten, and after he was slandered, he was transferred from Hexi to Longyou miraculously, and once again ambushed the enemy of Tubo in the Tang Dynasty east of the Chiling boundary monument.

So, this was Feng Changqing's self-recommendation in front of the door - it wasn't that he didn't want to recommend himself to Du Shiyi, but he didn't think that Du Shiyi might notice him at all - so now, when he thought that he was already walking with Wang Changling Gaoshi, but missed such an excellent opportunity, he suddenly had an urge to beat his chest.

Such a good opportunity, if you fail it, you will be damned, and there will be no second time!

This night, Feng Changqing almost couldn't close his eyes properly, however, the rest of the people were not like him, and there were not a few people who had a good night's sleep.

Du Shiyi got up early in the morning, put her ear against his wife's belly, and finally heard a fetal movement, and then went ahead refreshed and satisfied. It has been nearly two years since he left the town of Longyou, and he is no longer the original Son of Heaven when he was appointed to this position, with a bit of expedient taste, he has completely gained a firm foothold, and he also knows that the branch of the camp Tian Cang Jia and so on will leave a future, which means that he, the deputy envoy of Longyou, is completely the burden of the Jiedu envoy, but he just gave his false name to the king of Rong.

Yesterday, Wang Zhongsi returned and brought him a letter from Miao Yansi. Wang Zhongsi didn't know the delicate relationship between Miao Yansi and him, and only thought that Miao Yansi really couldn't control the army, so he instructed Wang Zhongsi to select a few suitable generals to recommend to Miao Yansi when he was in charge of the Zhenxi Army, but it didn't have to be too much, the reason was that if Miao Yansi instead shelved the recommended talents, it would be counterproductive, and Wang Zhongsi did it without thinking about it. Now the Zhenxi army seems to have completely settled down, but Miao Yanhei, whether he is good, he has already reached some kind of tacit understanding.

After ascending to the hall to see the civil and military, and after dealing with a few urgent tasks, Du Shiyi left Guo Jian alone and brought him to Zhenqiangzhai. As soon as Guo Jianfu sat down, he said straight to the point: "Yesterday, the loyal heir came back from Hezhou, and said that Mo Wenjiang, the general of the Zhenxi Army, is invited to Zhishi in the name of old age and decrepitude, and he is already sixty-eight years old. Who knew that Lu Dao brought back Miao Yuanjun's handwritten letter yesterday, but Miao Zhijun pointed you on the letter. ”

Wang Zhongsi is not there, and Guo Jian is trying to overpower Wang Zhongsi all the time. Even if Wang Zhonghei is from a good background, his qualifications by the side of the Son of Heaven, even if his military exploits in Helong are stronger than those who are a cut older, but Wang Zhongsi was degraded after all, if he can't take advantage of the opportunity of no war on the frontier to suppress it, then he is really worried about the next pattern in the army - only in the short period of one and a half years that Wang Zhongsi came to Shanzhou, how many generals in the army are attributed to this person? Therefore, when he heard the news at this moment, he was shocked and angry, and he almost scolded immediately.

If it weren't for Miao Yansi, with his previous military exploits, he would have been very likely to win the post of assassin in Hezhou, and now Miao Yansi would have snatched love with a knife, and it would be wishful thinking for him to condescend to serve under him!

Du Shiyi naturally knew Guo Jian's thoughts, however, he remained silent and handed over the handwritten letter from Miao Yanhe. Seeing that Guo Jianqiang endured the idea of tearing things to pieces, he took it and took a look, and then his face became extremely gloomy, and he knew that Miao Yanhe, who had been good at making yin moves since the beginning, could be regarded as pinching Guo Jian's death hole, and the adopted son was not the fault of his godfather, which was really true. Sure enough, while almost pinching the piece of paper, Guo Jian finally raised his head.

"Dashuai, Miao envoy Jun's letter ......"

"I've seen it. However, I naturally trust your way of the emperor and the way of teaching your son. ”

Although Du Shiyi said this, it meant that he would ignore Miao Yanhei's impeachment of his son's crime of taking slavery to protect himself like going to protect Sishun and Yao Feng, but as soon as Guo Jian thought of Guo Zhili and Guo Yingyi's uncle and nephew before the Guo family, he didn't dare to challenge the Son of Heaven's endurance for the Helong Guo family. While he secretly made up his mind to teach his son who didn't know the height of the sky and the earth a good lesson, he sighed and said: "Since Miao Envoy Jun has repeatedly said that I have to do it, then I can only try my best to go to the Zhenxi Army." It's just that I'm only one of my own powers, so can I be allowed to transfer a few people to accompany me? ”

"If you want a helper to recruit, you can naturally bring it over." Du Shiyi agreed to this request reasonably, and added, "However, you are from the Lintao army, and you can't leave this fundamental place, but don't transfer all the people to me one by one." ”

Du Shiyi's two sentences dispelled all the doubts in Guo Jian's heart, since Du Shiyi instructed him to leave his cronies in the Lintao army, he could rest assured. He made up his mind that after he arrived in Hezhou, he would give Miao Yansi a little color to see, and after thanking him, he immediately left Zhenqiang Zhai in a hurry. And as soon as he left, Zhang Xing behind the screen flashed out, but asked: "Is the handsome also too dependent on Miao Zhijun?" ”

The subtle relationship between Miao Yansi and Du Shiyi, in the entire twelve states of Longyou, there are definitely no more than a few people who know the Tao of Lu, and Zhang Xing also knows nothing because he has not experienced the two or three years in Yunzhou. However, whether it was because of Wang Rong's reminder or because of the big plan in Yunzhou that others had not yet noticed, Du Shiyi decided to further pull Zhang Xing into his circle.

"Qi Jun can know Lu Dao, whether it is the current Hezhou Miao Envoy, or the former Hezhou Miao Envoy, all of them are from the Shangdang Miao Clan?"

Zhang Xing is far less knowledgeable about the long-standing genealogies of famous families than Du Shiyi. However, Miao Yansi is Miao Jinqing's uncle, he has heard of it, and immediately nodded.

"When I was in Yunzhou, I dredged the Yuhe River to the Sanggan River, and the river transportation to Youzhou was mostly with the help of the Shangdang Miao clan in Luzhou. Although Miao Gong and I are not in harmony, his two sons, the elder Miao Hanze, were sent by me when I was the captain of Wannian and presided over the Wannian County Examination and the Jingzhao Mansion Examination; The second seedling contains liquid, which is the same year of my eighth year of Kaiyuan. And both of them served under me who was the governor of Yunzhou at the time for a year or two, but they got along very happily. ”

Although these words did not clearly point out the relationship between him and Miao Yansi, Zhang Xing was such a shrewd person, and he suddenly realized. The grievances between Miao Yansi and Du Shiyi are true, but after more than ten years, because their two sons and the Shangdang Miao family are deeply cared for by Du Shiyi, this layer of grievances should have faded long ago. Therefore, since Miao Yansi took office, it seems that he and Du Shiyi often have disputes, but in essence, it is likely to be......

Du Shiyi skipped this matter and didn't talk about it deeply, and then motioned for Zhang Xing to come and sit down, and learned that after he had a deep talk with Feng Changqing last night, he found that he really had a little idea about the current situation of the four towns of Anxi, so he said that he would keep him along, and Feng Changqing told him that Tubo had always adopted a policy of encroachment in the Western Regions, and from time to time joined forces with the Great Food Country. After hearing this, he pondered for a long time, and then nodded.

"Qijun, Guo Jian's transfer to the general of the Western Army in Hezhou Town should be a foregone conclusion, and although there is no war in Longyou now, it is difficult to say the mind of that Zampu in Tubo, so I have one thing I need you to do."

Zhang Xing saw Du Shiyi ordering things so solemnly, and immediately responded solemnly: "The marshal, please give orders." ”

"At the end of the year before last, Tubo had brazenly crossed the border, and although it was the final cessation of the army, there was still a voice from the government and the opposition after all, that is, the peace negotiation in Tibet was a delaying tactic. Therefore, His Majesty has already considered something, and plans to send someone to Luo in the near future, under the banner of being ordered by the Son of Heaven to visit Princess Jincheng. Of course, the excuse is ready-made, and Princess Kaneshiro wrote to her before that she was not in good health. ”

Princess Jincheng is six years older than the current Tubo Zampu ruler belt Zhudan, and this year is already thirty and seven, and the ruler belt Zhudan succeeded to the throne at a young age, even if she is younger than Princess Jincheng, she is already in her early thirties. In addition, there are many women from Tibetan nobles in the harem, and even women from Tianzhu and Bolu, who should have been surrounded by children, but except for the daughter of a partial concubine, there is not even an heir. Even the most favored concubine is just a childless situation like Princess Jincheng.

These are the messages brought by the merchants who traveled to Tibet from Yazhou City for tea. Although the mountain is high and the road is far away, it is likely that there is a danger to life, but compared with the profits that can be obtained from the mutual market, the profits that can be obtained by selling tea far away will be several times higher, so there are people in Shu who are willing to take risks. After Shi Zhangjian, the governor of Yazhou, reported the matter to the DPRK and China, the Son of Heaven was moved for a while, so he sent an envoy this time.

After analyzing these things in the Tibetan harem to Zhang Xing, Du Shiyi said in a deep voice: "But this is just the idea of His Majesty at the moment. Most of the princesses have no children, and even if they do, they will not be able to inherit a big country, which is a tacit matter for each other. And I need you to go to Tibet, and the other reason is Xiao Bolu. Xiao Bolu is far west of the four towns of Anxi, if it is really taken away by Tubo, the countries west of the Green Ridge that were originally dependent on the Tang Dynasty will be more convenient to get involved, and it will be difficult to say the passage to the west of the Tang Dynasty from then on. If it is really succeeded by the Tibetan horses, even if the four towns of Anxi send troops, not to mention the loss of soldiers and horses on the labor expedition, and it may not be known whether they win or lose, so if they can surrender without a fight, it is the best.

Originally, it was best to send Huangfu Weiming, a person who had been to Tubo before, but he and Wang Zhongji were mortal enemies, and I didn't want him to make a comeback, not to mention, you have learned Tubo in the past two years in Shanzhou. Therefore, after learning of His Majesty's intentions, I wrote a suggestion and suggested that an official from Helong be sent to him, and you would be the one who recommended him. Now that there are many displaced people in Helong, I will take this opportunity to recruit troops, increase the number of soldiers in the Heyuan Army, the Anren Army and the frontline soldiers in Suirong City, and after a while, I will contact the Marshal of Hexi Jiedu Niu, parade the military horses, and show off the prestige of our army, in order to attract the attention of Tibet. In short, do your best to obey the destiny of heaven, whether you can temporarily suppress the ambition of Tubo for a while, and only after doing it will you know the way. And Princess Jincheng, if you have the opportunity, you must meet alone and persuade more. She entered Tibet at the age of thirteen, and has not been able to return to her homeland for more than 20 years, and once left a letter to the king of a certain country in the Western Regions to ask for her to return to the country, but then she disappeared from the following, which is miserable, how can outsiders know? ”
