There are only 1,000 people in the Lan army, and according to Du Shiyi's previous itinerary, he will only stay here for one day, and more energy will be put into the Shuozhou Datong army, which he originally served as the envoy of Datong.

Although when he had just assumed the post of governor of Yunzhou, Li Longji's plan was to wait until Yunzhou settled down and move the Datong Army north into Yunzhou, but now the 7,000 people who were guarded and captured in Yunzhong were about to be in full, and then moving the Datong Army over would not only expand the scale of the Yunzhou Army to the extreme, but also make the supply extremely difficult. Moreover, in this way, there may still be some gossip about the imperial history of "worrying about the country and the people", so after Du Shiyi took office as Daizhou and concurrently served as the military envoy of Datong, he wrote a letter suggesting that the Datong army still stay in Shuozhou, and the DPRK and China naturally agreed.

However, the current turmoil in the Lan army has made his arrangements and Jihua this time come to naught. Lanzhou Assassin Shi hurried to Langu County in the afternoon of the second day after the incident, and then combed and appeased from top to bottom, and put Wu Luoyi and the thirteen people in prison to be strictly guarded, and Du Shiyi also reported to Taiyuan Mansion and Chang'an, and was delayed in the small Langu County for ten days. The urgent report of the six-hundred-mile rush soon waited for the six-hundred-mile urgent order.

Because Du Shiyi truthfully reported what Sun Wanming said, especially the ambition that Wuluo Yiyou conquered Lanzhou Prefecture to govern Yifang County, and then took Jingle and Hehe in the east and west, occupied the entire territory of Lanzhou to rebel, and then declared himself a vassal to the Turks, and then called for the ambition of the four realms to obey each other, Li Longji was shocked and angry that a small pioneer envoy was so arrogant and bold. However, Du Shiyi's situation forced him, and in order to appease him, he had to allow him to only punish the evil, and he had to accept it. After all, not to mention the small Lanzhou, when Quan Liangshan and others rebelled in Chang'an, and even attacked the Taiji Palace for a time, Song Jing used the same trick to appease people's hearts.

Therefore, Li Longji naturally would not be relentless when Du Shiyi listed and killed Ambassador Liu of the Lan Army, and even led the army to attack and kill more than ten people from Wuluo Yi who were in the history of his generation of governors. As for such a big incident, he didn't pay attention to it at all in advance, and he was flustered and incompetent when the incident happened, and he only made up for it afterwards, whether it was the Arashiya Ling Lu Chuan, the Son of Heaven, or the prime minister of the Central Political Affairs Hall, naturally they didn't have a good feeling, and they were all dismissed from the government and were waiting for the election -- as for how long they would have to wait for this election, I'm afraid only God knows.

As for the other subordinate officials, even if they will not be dismissed at this point, they will naturally have to go down to the exam.

As for Du Shiyi himself, although there are many things to discuss in the DPRK and China, as soon as he arrived in Langu County, he quelled the rebellion and pacified him with lightning speed, and the two prime ministers in the political hall thought that they could ignore their conscience, but they couldn't help but Du Shiyi was a person who Li Longji knew very well, not to mention how much credit he had, but at least the merits were offset by the demerits. Therefore, Du Shiyi did not mention himself, just to ask for credit for Sun Wanming, who was caught in the hands of the enemy but would rather die than give in, at this moment, in the order that came down from the middle of the court, Sun Wanming was actually promoted from the county lieutenant to the Langu order, and Duan Guangzhen and Zhang Xing, who had meritorious service in quelling the rebellion, did not seem to have risen at all

On the day of the beheading of Wu Luoyi and others, Du Shiyi did not appear in person, but only Lanzhou Thorn Shi and others were present to supervise the beheading, and he was in the Langu County Yazhong, which is now temporarily requisitioned by him, to meet Duan Guangzhen and Zhang Xing. For the two people brought out this time, he can be regarded as very satisfied.

At this moment, he glanced at the expressions of the two of them, then looked at Duan Guangzhen and said, "You have only twenty people this time, so that the top and bottom of the Lan army dare not move, just with your prestige, it was originally very easy to take over as the envoy of the Lan army." Lanzhou Xie Yuanjun originally had this intention, but I refused, do you have any complaints? ”

Duan Guangzhen was stunned. Although when he was in Xicheng Pass, his command said that there were 500 people, but it was not enough, even if it was sufficient, the Xicheng Pass, where there was no possibility of war, was definitely thousands of times more important than the Lan army of Langu County, which was Turkic in the northwest. What's more, the ambassador of the Lan army is the main position, and the grade is secondary, for him who has been stumbling for many years, this is an extremely important opportunity, but Du Shiyi has already rejected it for him, and he couldn't help but feel a little depressed in his heart, he suddenly met Du Shiyi's gaze, thinking of what Du Shiyi asked him to ask when he was on patrol before, he fell into deep thought again, and finally said a word.

"I'll listen to you."

Du Shiyi nodded with satisfaction. If Duan Guangzhen has a grudge against this, then he will directly leave people in the Lan Army according to what he asked before the Lanzhou Assassin History, and then ask for credit for him, so that the position of ambassador will still fall to Duan Guangzhen, but in the future, he will not care anymore. But after being surprised and disappointed, Duan Guangzhen finally chose to obey, which means that he can use Duan Guangzhen, who has a very set of troops and is quite capable himself.

"Good. The trip of the Datong Army was crucial. You go down and get ready. We'll leave tomorrow. ”

After seeing Duan Guangzhen salute and leaving, Du Shiyi saw that Zhang Xing seemed to be thinking something, he beckoned to this young man who had more contacts and was more familiar, and immediately smiled: "What, are you thinking that I am too strict?" Meritorious service is not rewarded, is it not the way of the emperor? ”

"So that Jun can appreciate Sun Shaofu, who stood up and would rather die than give in, and did not hesitate to recommend him to be promoted to the Langu County Order, how could he ignore General Duan's hard work?" Zhang Xing is a smart person, Du Shiyi will guess this if he doesn't say it, not to mention that Du Shiyi's rhetorical question is undoubtedly what he meant. Sure enough, after he asked like this, Du Shiyi replied meaningfully.

"Langu County is too small, and the Lan Army is also too small."

Seeing that Zhang Xing nodded knowingly, he said bluntly: "Sun Wanming is the first in the Ming Dynasty, he has been out of office for ten years, and he is still serving as a county lieutenant because he has been in trouble so far, because he hated his boss in the position of thief hunter, and was later demoted to the southwest as a county lieutenant, and this time he was transferred back to Hedong Dao." I recommended this person as Arashiya Ling, also because his qualifications were already sufficient. On the contrary, as a priest, although you have acted as a doctor of economics in the state of Daizhou, but I have appointed you as a patrol officer for a short time, and now because of the merits, the state and county real positions are certainly there, but a county lieutenant is not enough for you to show your talents. And with your background and qualifications, it is difficult to ensure that your boss and colleagues are not excluded. ”

"I understand the hard work of the envoy. Just as the envoy just said that Langu County and the Lan army are too small, even if they are heroes, if they are useless, wouldn't it be a pity? ”

"It's good that you understand. However, your merits this time are not small, I will not bury you, after I return to Daizhou, I will report to Li Gong, with you as the secretary of Hedong Jiedu, please play the imperial court, and bring you the title of school secretary.

Although the trial school scholar is a name, and being able to get the school scholar does not mean that he can really be among the Qing nobles such as the school scholar, Zhang Xing was still greatly shocked. He almost didn't think about it, so he bowed and thanked him for a long time, and when Du Shiyi ordered him to go to the execution ground to inquire and a few other things, and he retired, his heart was still warm.

Du Shiyi is such a boss, he is really not suspicious, not suspicious, he and Duan Guangzhen are not relatives, but once they are appointed and meritorious, Du Shiyi does not hesitate to fight for their favors, even Sun Wanming, who should have never known each other.

And Du Shiyi naturally did not ignore Sun Wanming. Not to mention that it was the person on the list entrusted to him by Yu Wenrong before his death, just because Sun Wanming showed integrity in this mutiny, it was worthy of his respect. Although this person couldn't hold back in the end, so that he was in prison and bruised, think about it, if he is really such a forbearant and resourceful person, he will not be squeezed out by his boss to the point of not making an inch for ten years, and he can't be too demanding. Therefore, when he came to the back of the county party, the house that Lu Chuan vacated to house Sun Wanming, he couldn't help but have a thought.

If Lu Chuan knew that Sun Wanming would become the master of this Langu County Party from now on, would he regret not coming forward at that time?

"Du Yuanjun" recuperated for ten days, although the external injuries were not light, but under the careful treatment of the doctor, Sun Wanming's spirit and complexion were much better. He took over the order of the Arashiya County Order, and the people under him could not bear it, they had already told him, and even congratulated him for a while, but he himself was a little panicked. At this moment, seeing Du Shiyi walking down quickly, he couldn't move in the days before, but now he was finally able to move in the house, and he was about to stay, but he was held down by Du Shiyi.

"Your injuries have not healed, so don't move."

"It's so delicate. These days, I have to be taken care of by others, and I have to worry about the outside things even to work hard and busy Du Yuanjun himself, but now I am rewarded, I really deserve it" Although there has been no progress in his career for many years, Sun Wanming's temperament is still as straightforward and impatient as ever, and at this moment he gritted his teeth and said, "I have never delayed Wuluoyi's rebellion, nor have I appeased the army and the people, but I have taken the credit of the envoy, I."

Seeing Du Shiyi and Sun Wanming talking, the doctor who was originally guarding the house naturally retreated knowingly, leaving a clean place.

At this moment, Du Shiyi saw that Sun Wanming, who was already in his early forties, turned red, so he shook his head and said: "I recommended you in the concert of the imperial court, so you don't have to be ashamed." You are already remarkable to be able to stand up at a critical moment, and to be able to hold on to it after people have been bewitched and instigated to unsuccessfully move the severe punishment. What's more, I know that the reason why you didn't treat your boss well when you were in the first office was because you offended the local clan when you were in Kutian and Kuto, and you were not bribed, and you were guilty of public anger. Your official career in the past ten years has exactly responded to a sentence, the rich and the rich cannot be lewd, the poor and the lowly cannot be moved, and the mighty cannot be bent. Such a big husband, just a little Lan Gu Ling, what is it? ”

Sun Wanming has been in the office for so many years, and he has seen a lot of bosses, but it is the first time he has heard such heartwarming words, he only feels that the whole person has been hot from the outside to the depths of his heart, and he can't say anything when his throat chokes for a while, he only knows to hold Du Shiyi's hand tightly. Suddenly, he realized what the doctor had quietly told him before, and his face suddenly turned pale again.

"I am so ashamed to be appreciated by the envoy, but ...... But I'm afraid I'm going to be disabled, and I'm going to have to live up to the good intentions of the king. ”

Seeing that Du Shiyi's face was suddenly shocked, he glanced at his left hand uneasily, and said in a low voice: "My left hand was discounted with a stick and hung for too long, the doctor said that even if I tried my best to modulate it, I am afraid it would be difficult to move." ”

Although he was taken aback, he heard that it was his left hand instead of Sun Wanming's habitual right hand, Du Shiyi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then said warmly: "It's okay, when the Shangshu Provincial Officials Department took the exam, it was true that it was about body, words, and writing, and it was indispensable, but this time it was righteous for you to come forward, if you have physical injuries, then there is no way, how can you not be an official?" Not to mention whether your left hand can be restored is not certain, even if you really can't move, your left arm is still there, and your body is still complete, so you can use it like this? Don't forget, you still have wives and children at home, and they are now proud of you, so don't let them down."

"I ......"

Under Du Shiyi's gaze, Sun Wanming finally took a deep breath and replied astringently: "I understand that I will not let down my family, nor will I live up to the kindness of the envoy."

"That's good." Du Shiyi turned his anger into joy, smiled and let go of his hand and motioned for Sun Wanming to lie back, and then said, "Tomorrow I will go north to Shuozhou." You are not cured, just concentrate on your recovery. Remember, Arashiya Prefecture is in turmoil right now, and the sooner you heal, the sooner you can settle down here, remember"

Although the age difference is more than ten years, the number of years as an official is almost the same, but when it comes to the experience of being alone, Du Shiyi is several times more than Sun Wanming, so he instructed him one by one in detail, and Sun Wanming also listened attentively, especially for Du Shiyi said that recruiting soldiers is a national policy and cannot be easily changed, but when he will think hard about how to solve it, he can't help but refute a sentence or two, and Xu Yu actually said this for most of the hour. It wasn't until the doctor waiting outside felt that it was too long and knocked on the door that the two of them suddenly came to their senses

"I forgot the time, okay, that's it, you have a good rest, you don't have to send it tomorrow."

"Yes......" Sun Wanming remembered that he had refuted what Du Shiyi said when he had just forgotten his feelings, but at this moment, Du Shiyi was completely unimpressed, and he couldn't help but feel more and more agitated. Seeing that Du Shiyi arrived at the door, he suddenly realized something, and couldn't help but ask, "Dare to ask, why does the envoy know about the situation when I first became an official?" I'm just a nobody from a humble background......"

"Yes, you really aren't a prestigious, well-written person." Du Shiyi stretched out his hand and pressed it on the door, and after a pause, he said without looking back, "However, the seemingly trivial things you did are still remembered by others." Since I know that you are an official in Langu County, and you are a person with wind and integrity, I should strongly recommend it. ”

Seeing Du Shiyi go out like this, Sun Wanming couldn't help but be stunned. The implication of Du Shiyi's words is nothing more than that someone remembers the events of that year, and they praise him very much, so he even recommended Du Shiyi, so because of his actions this time, Du Shiyi spared no effort to support him. But who is that, who would treat him so sincerely?

That night, when Du Shiyi couldn't sleep and got up to go for a walk in the yard, she found a person standing under the tree. Recognizing that it was Chibi, who had not yet recovered his body, he quietly stepped forward. However, his martial arts are naturally not as good as Chibi's, and before he could be deceived within ten steps, Chibi, who was originally stunned, had suddenly woken up and looked back.

"Lord Lang ......"

"You're on duty tonight?"

"The first half of the night was me." Chibi smiled, stepped forward to tuck the robe on Du Shiyi's shoulder, and then asked, "Lord Lang, can't you sleep?" ”

"When I came out this time, the most important thing for me was to inspect the Datong Army, but I didn't expect to encounter such a thing in the Lan Army. By the way, you don't know yet, Sun Wanming is one of the people on Yu Wenrong's list. ”

Hearing this answer, Chibi was only slightly stunned, and then smiled: "I see, I'm still thinking that even if he has a commendable temperament, he is just a county lieutenant, and Lord Lang is too kind to him." ”

"That's also about testing and investigating. After getting along a few times, this Sun Wan is clearly available, or maybe he is in the top of his family, and he may not be as good as the others recommended by Yu Wenrong, but he is still superior in character. Yuwen Rong was born in the Jingzhao clan, because he suffered too much when he was cold, so when he was a talent, he was more of a favor for the elites of the clan, and more about compromise. But the result? Once he fails, there are not even many people who can speak for him and run for him. Because all the families have relatives, and they all have the interests of breaking bones and tendons, no one can act rashly. What's more, as a matter of course, they don't know how to be grateful

Chibi had just come out of his mind, and it was precisely the time he spent with Yuwenrong for more than a year. It is not long, but it is enough to ⊥ him, who originally did not think much of Yu Wenrong, deeply understands what kind of person this former prime minister is. Therefore, when Du Shiyi pointed through this point with such a sharp sentence at this moment, he also had an inexplicable happiness in his heart.

With such a lesson from the past, Lord Lang will not make wedding clothes for others like him when he uses people in the future

"You're right." Du Shiyi nodded, but didn't say anything more, turned around and went back to the house. Even though he is more utilitarian in employing people now than before, he has no regrets. Since he wants to become a tree with deep roots and thick leaves, then he must at least control all the branches and leaves

In the Sendai view of Wangwu Mountain, most of the time in the past two years has been so clean that it can be said to be too deserted. Although it was not the first time that Princess Datang worshipped a Taoist priest as a teacher, she and Princess Jinxian were in the early years of Ruizong, and even worshipped a Taoist priest who later proved to be infamous, but she worshipped Sima Chengzhen as a teacher this time, but she was sincere. Sima Chengzhen doesn't care about fame and fortune, and he really believes in sitting and forgetting to become an immortal, and eating and drinking dew, so she was not used to it at first, but Princess Jinxian believed in it, but she had already noticed that someone was watching the jade slave, so she simply put down a heart to live in seclusion in Sendaiguan, and even the last time Du Shiyi was recalled to Beijing because of Yu Wenrong, she also restrained herself and did not show up rashly.

Today's Du Shiyi is no longer a fledgling scholar back then, but the deputy envoy of Hedong Jiedu who is in charge, and she can no longer be as close to him as before.

Now that she is old, she can't even tell whether Du Shiyi is in a state of pure regard for her confidant and friend, or like Princess Gu'an, she treats him as a younger brother - she is the youngest of the three siblings of the same mother, as for the other brothers and sisters who are not the same mother, no matter how close they are outside, they will be worse after all. What's more, the only brother in law is the Son of Heaven, and he is no longer the brother who can be coquettish and hope to shelter him.

"Your lord, your lord"

Hearing this familiar voice, Princess Yuzhen, who was in a trance, looked back and saw that it was her most trusted maidservant Huo Qing rushing in like a gust of wind, and she couldn't help but quip: "What made you anxious like this?" What's the matter, could it be that Du Jiulang caused some trouble again, and was picked up by the prime ministers to sneak to Chang'an again? ”

Although he knew that the master was in a good mood, it was not easy to come by, but the stakes were very high, Huo Qing still had to sort out his thoughts first, and then said softly: "Yazhou emergency, Taizhen Niangzi's father, Yazhou Governor Shi Yang Xuanyan has passed away. ”

"What"

Princess Yuzhen was taken aback. Although Yang Xuanyan is barely from a famous family, his relationship with Hongnong Yang is far away, and his talent is mediocre, if Du Shiyi is not because of the relationship between his disciple and Yunu, he will not go to Yazhou, one of the important towns in the southwest, to serve as Sima. She had also heard that Yang Xuanyan's health was not too good, but she didn't take it too seriously, after all, this year is about fate, and Yang Xuanyan is the governor of Yazhou, so he will not be able to invite a famous doctor. So, after a long silence, she sighed.

"Go and bring Tae-jin."

After the New Year, the thirteen-year-old jade slave is now slim. Although she was wearing a Taoist robe, this did not affect her natural beauty at all, and in the face of the call of the master, she ran all the way over with her skirt, and when she arrived in front of Princess Yuzhen, she asked breathlessly, "The master called me?" ”

These days in Wangwu Mountain, it seems lonely and lonely, but Yunu often takes people to frolic in the mountains, and Sima Chengzhen is quite good at music, especially Taoist music, she is happy to follow Sima Chengzhen to compose music and play music, and sometimes she ponders to join the music and dance, but she is very happy. In the past two years, she has become a lot plump, and she still has a happy smile on her white and red plump cheeks.

In the face of such a beloved disciple, Princess Yuzhen didn't know how to speak. However, some things can be hidden, some things can't be hidden, she was silent for a long time, and when she saw that Yunu was already a little worried, she said with a bitter face: "Taizhen, Yazhou sent a letter, saying that it was your father...... Passed away. ”

"Father? Grandpa? Grandpa passed away? It can't be."

Yu Nu's first reaction was absurd, but when she saw Shizun's solemn face, she realized that it was absolutely impossible for anyone to joke with her about such a big matter. Although she is accustomed to the isolated life in Wangwushan Sendai, and understands that she can't go back to reunite with her father for the time being, at this moment, she still can't help but hate herself for not being able to see her father. She sat down on the ground with her feet weak, but there was no sound in her throat, only tears filled her eyes in an instant.

Grandpa, that's her favorite and the grandpa she can't let go of the most, but now he didn't wait for her to go back and just left, how could it be, how could it be
