The second year of Jingding passed quickly. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

In the Spring Festival of the third year of Jingding, Wu Shaogang spent it on the road, and at this moment he was on his way back to Luzhou Prefecture, as for his family, he had moved from Hezhou to Luzhou Prefecture.

Lu Wende was ordered to return to the capital.

Liu Heima finally took out 10,000 taels of gold and 10,000 stones of grain in exchange for Liu Yuanzhen, and in exchange for both sides were tight-lipped about this matter, and did not mention Liu Quan's matter, as for how Liu Heima went to give the Mongolian Khan Kublai Khan, it did not need Wu Shaogang to consider.

Some of the captured Mongolian sergeants stayed behind and joined the army under Wu Shaogang, some were escorted to the capital, and many of them were scattered to various places, and Tongchuan Fucheng, which encountered great disasters, was also short of labor.

As for the rebels under Liu Quan's command, almost all of them stayed, and a small number of older ones were sent home and given food, and these people had to report to the government as soon as possible, and were not allowed to leave the local area, and if they left at will, they would be severely punished.

Of course, the management of the rebel sergeants who were dismissed and returned home was relatively gentle, and the management of those who were dismissed by the Mongolian army was quite strict, and if they acted rashly, they would be severely punished.

After nearly three months, the entire Tongchuan Road has gradually stabilized, all the people have returned to their hometowns, and got the food distributed by the government, can barely maintain their lives, after the Spring Festival, there will be spring ploughing, the main energy of farmers, mainly on the matter of spring ploughing, for the Spring Festival is not particularly important.

The officials of the prefectures and counties at all levels have no time to rest, and the officials in the yamen have been stained and pinched by the defense envoys, and if they want not to be held accountable, they must do things with their lives, so that the localities and the people can stabilize, so that they can keep their current positions.

Almost all of the grain that Wu Shaogang got from Liu Heima was distributed to the yamen of Fuzhou County, and this grain could save many people, after all, many places in the fifteen prefectures of Tongchuan Fulu were seriously short of food.

There are two things that make Wu Shaogang the happiest.

The first thing, Li Siqi, the former assassin of Jiangzhou, served as the deputy envoy for the defense of Tongchuan Mansion Road, and concurrently served as the prefect of Tongchuan Prefecture, and became Wu Shaogang's deputy, and the second thing, Lu Xiufu was sent by Li Tingzhi to Tongchuan Mansion Road, served as Sima of Luzhou Prefecture, and became Wu Shaogang's assistant.

Don't underestimate these two things, there are two most important places in Tongchuan Road, namely Luzhou Mansion and Tongchuan Mansion, Luzhou Mansion can be regarded as the political, cultural and economic center of Tongchuan Mansion Road, Tongchuan Mansion is the most critical defensive place of Tongchuan Mansion Road, if you want to govern the entire Tongchuan Mansion Road, you must first seize Luzhou Mansion and Tongchuan Mansion.

On behalf of Wu Shaogang, he urged the officials of various prefectures and counties to settle the people, stabilize the place, and go back and forth, tirelessly, in the shortest possible time, so that the entire Tongchuan Mansion Road was stabilized, and the later nearly 10,000 stone of grain was also distributed by Li Siqi.

Lu Xiufu is also capable, but not as good as Li Siqi, Wu Shaogang asked Lu Xiufu to come to his side to do things, he has another layer of thought, he wants to see if Lu Xiufu can be changed, and what kind of attitude Lu Xiufu has when a big change appears one day.

From Lu Xiufu's body, Wu Shaogang believed that he could find a way to deal with the scholars of the Southern Song Dynasty.

On the eighth day of the first lunar month, Wu Shaogang returned to the capital city of Luzhou.

Li Hanwei and others, who were already living in the mansion, were eager to see through it, and after seeing the thinner Wu Shaogang, they all cried bitterly, especially Li Hanwei, after marrying Wu Shaogang, at the beginning of the marriage, the time of separation was as long as several months, and the first Spring Festival was not able to reunite with the family, and the mood can be imagined.

Fortunately, before the last nine days, Wu Shao had just returned to Luzhou Mansion City, and he also quieted down and reunited with his family.

Huan Huan followed Wu Shaogang's side, and was even more inseparable, nearly a year has passed, Huanhuan has grown up, and his appearance is already very scary, although he has not spent much time with Wu Shaogang, but Huanhuan is afraid that Wu Shao is its real master just now.

The letter written by his father Wu Qiming made Wu Shaogang think about it for a long time.

Everything is fine in the Luzhou family, the Wu family in Jiangxia Village has become a real family, all of which is of course thanks to the continuous improvement of Wu Shaogang's status, Wu Qiming is already the elder of Jiangxia Village, and has become a unique figure in the village, fifteen-year-old Wu Shaozun, participated in the county government examination, was able to go to high school, and has the qualification to participate in the state examination.

In the letter, Wu Qiming also specifically talked about Wu Shaowu.

Wu Shaowu is already the county lieutenant of Hefei County, although he is a petty official from Jiupin, but because of the support of his family, he is still smooth sailing in Hefei County.

Wu Shaolan is thirteen years old, fourteen years old, someone came to the door to propose, but Wu Qiming and Xu Zongying did not agree, they knew that Wu Shaogang loved Wu Shaolan very much, and it involved Wu Shaolan's lifelong event, and Wu Shaogang must be in charge.

As for Wu Shaozun's lifelong event, Wu Qiming and Xu Zongying have already begun to think about it, after all, they are already fifteen years old, and it is time to get engaged, and the girl is roughly determined, she is a girl from a prestigious family in Luzhou Fucheng.

Wu Qiming, who became an elder in the village, felt the importance of power, and in his letters, he repeatedly told Wu Shaogang to do things well and be loyal to the emperor and the court.

Of course, Wu Shaogang is clear about the importance of power, and it is precisely because of this that he will start an endless struggle after crossing over, but the goal of Wu Shaogang's struggle is not entirely for money and power, to put it mildly, what he thinks of is to change history, let the Han nation continue to be strong, and change the humiliating situation that is likely to occur after a thousand years.

The prevalence of the idea of imperial power cannot be changed in a short period of time, I am afraid that Wu Shaogang has exhausted his life, and it is impossible to reverse it, rather than doing the thing of hitting the stone with an egg, it is better to follow the trend of history and honestly do the goals that can be achieved.

Wu Qiming's letter reminded Wu Shaogang and gave Wu Shaogang a feeling of enlightenment.

Don't set your goals too high, take one step at a time, do the things in front of you honestly, and don't worry too much about yourself and put too much pressure on yourself, which is likely to achieve half the effort, or even difficult to achieve the desired goal.

While resting at home, Wu Shaogang was still waiting for one thing, that is, the emperor's holy decree.

Through this battle to recover Tongchuan Fulu, the relationship between Wu Shaogang and Lu Wende has become indifferent, there is no kindness between them, there is an exchange of interests, which is also expected by Wu Shaogang, he Wu Shaogang has begun to gradually become stronger, not the young man who can be manipulated at will before, don't think that the ancients are stupid, people are extremely shrewd, especially an old official like Lu Wende, who has extraordinary officialdom wisdom.

Just before Lu Wende left Luzhou Mansion, Wu Shaogang wrote a letter again, clearly making a request, he was not satisfied with the position of Tongchuan Fu Road Defense Envoy, and proposed to serve as the deputy envoy of Sichuan Province and the Tongchuan Fu Road Defense Envoy and Luzhou Prefect.

The implications of this request are profound.

Although Wu Shaogang was the defense envoy of Tongchuan Fulu, he had no right to interfere in anything with the imperial armies of Hezhou, and only the Sichuan envoy and deputy envoy, or the Sichuan envoy and deputy envoy authorized by the emperor and the Privy Council, could interfere in the affairs of the Hezhou imperial army.

For example, Zhang Shijie, although he was the deputy envoy of Sichuan Chengxuan and was stationed in Hezhou, did not have the authorization of the emperor and the Privy Council, and had no right to interfere in any affairs of the imperial army in Hezhou.

The system envoy is different, speaking of the responsibilities of the envoy, and the festival envoy is somewhat similar, but the power of the festival envoy is too great, the emperor and the court will not easily grant people, the late eunuch Dong Songchen, who was trusted by the emperor in every way, was also after the death of illness, was enshrined by the emperor as the festival envoy.

The power of the envoy is not as great as that of the envoy, but the real person in charge of the locality, and the status of Sichuan is very special, and it has been attacked by the Mongol Tatars in a row, so the Sichuan envoy has been given the power of the emperor and the Privy Council, and at special times can intervene in the affairs of the imperial armies stationed in Sichuan.

Once Wu Shaogang became the deputy envoy of Sichuan, he was able to meddle in the affairs of the army in a justifiable manner.

After working hard to come to Luzhou, he did his best to exterminate Liu Cheng and pacify the situation on Tongchuan Fulu, if he could not control the army, it was just a matter of maintaining the local people's livelihood, then Wu Shaogang's efforts would be in vain.

Of course, as the defense envoy of Tongchuan Fu Road, Wu Shaogang can still form a certain degree of local army to protect the safety of the entire Tongchuan Fu Road, but there are too many restrictions on the local army, and it is easy to attract the attention of others, and it is difficult to have development prospects.

In order to achieve his goal, Wu Shaogang wrote a letter to his father-in-law Li Tingzhi, saying his thoughts very clearly, of course, he made a request from the perspective of protecting the safety of Tongchuanfu Road.

Wu Shaogang believes that his goal will definitely be achieved.

Sure enough, on the sixteenth day of the first month, the emperor's holy decree was issued.

Wu Shaogang was appointed as the deputy envoy of the Sichuan system, and still served as the defense envoy of Tongchuan Fulu and the prefect of Luzhou.

Cai Siwei served as the commander of all the armies in Hezhou.

Zhang Binghui served as the deputy commander of the imperial armies in Hezhou, and concurrently served as the commander of the White Army.

Ma Long served as the commander of the Urging Front Army under the Imperial Armies of Hezhou.

Wang 13 served as the commander of the Xuanfeng Army under the Imperial Front Army of Hezhou.

Du Xiaoqi served as the commander of the Youyi Army under the Imperial Armies of Hezhou.

Qin Han served as the general of the White Army under the Imperial Army of Hezhou.

Zheng Tongwu and Yuan Shichun served as the general of the White Army under the Hezhou Imperial Army.

The holy decree also made it clear that the Hezhou Imperial Army was responsible for the defense of the Tongchuan Road.

The emperor and the imperial court agreed that the prefectures and counties under the jurisdiction of Tongchuan Fulu would be exempted from taxes for three years.

The arrival of the Divine Decree shows that Wu Shaogang's preliminary present has been fully achieved.

In this, there is Lu Wende's concession, Li Tingzhi's secret operation, and Wu Shaogang's own efforts. (To be continued.) )
