Chapter 51: A Trip to the South

Han Taozi inquired about Ding Zhuhuang about Zheng Duxing and Tangmen. During the whole conversation, Han Taozi didn't say much, just listened quietly and thought silently.

Ding Zhuhuang knew that Zheng Duxing was a difficult character to deal with, and he also knew that Han Taozi went south to say that the Tang Sect was very important, and told Han Taozi everything he knew. From the hall to the study, and finally from the study to the mansion where the archives were stored, Ding Zhuhuang showed all the situation of the Tang Gate to Han Taozi.

When Han Taozi walked out of the Dejia Guard, it was already the middle of the night. With a few volumes of important documents in his arms, Han Taozi was about to rest.

It's just that he just left the Dejia Guardhouse, and under the dim lights outside the mansion, an old figure appeared in front of Han Taozi.

"Dad, why are you here? How long have you been waiting? I should have come home to see you as soon as possible, but I didn't dare to delay with my contract, so I came here first. It's really not my daughter's fault that you've waited so long. Han Taozi hurriedly stepped forward to support his father, only to feel that his father's sleeves were already wet, and he didn't know how long his father had been suffering from the cold in the deep autumn, and Han Taozi couldn't help it.

"Nothing, nothing. I knew you were back, and I wanted to come and see you, and I was relieved to see you come back safely. Do you know? Dejia City is now spreading your deeds, I didn't expect you to make such a big noise as soon as you came back, it seems that you have found what you are looking for. Han waved his hand to indicate that he was okay, and then said with a look of relief.

"I did find what I was looking for, and now is the time for me to give it to someone else. First of all, it is necessary to achieve the stability of Yaodong, only when people are determined, other things can be done step by step. Han Taozi said.

"I was worried about you, worried that you would be in trouble with those who are as slippery as oil and as ruthless as wolves. But now it seems that you have really learned a great skill. Both the Qing Gang and the Luofeng Society have agreed to strike under your lobbying, and it seems that it is not a distant thing to achieve stability in Yaodong. You're better than me, you're better than me. Han He patted Han Taozi's hand and said with relief in his eyes.

"Dad, it's cold here, let's go home and talk about it. I'm going to the main altar of the Tang Gate in a few days, and I'll let my daughter honor you well in the next few days. Han Taozi took advantage of the dim light to look at the old father who was trembling a little in the cold wind, and his heart was also sour, and as he spoke, he helped Han He to get into the carriage and went all the way home.

There's nothing warmer than home, where no one asks you to take more responsibility, just a little warmth and nothing is imperfect.

Han Taozi got along with his father for a few days, and then he was going south again. Unlike the previous separation, Han He was full of confidence in his daughter this time, and he believed that what he couldn't do by himself before, his daughter would definitely be able to do better than him.

Han Taozi did not talk to Han about the troubles she had encountered, nor did she say the various dangers she had encountered and would encounter in the future. just said some happy things, but at the end asked Ding Zhuhuang to take good care of his father for himself.

After sending Han Taozi away, Ding Zhuhuang returned to the mansion. Of course, he knew the danger of Han Taozi's trip, and his heart was also full of gratitude to Han Taozi, and now that the complicated situation had made him tired, Ding Zhuhuang was naturally happy to have a wise person to share everything. Although this wise man is just a woman.

Ding Zhuhuang returned to the mansion, and came to Ding Zhuqing's house after three turns and two turns.

Ding Zhuqing was angry with Zheng Duxing, and fell from his horse unconscious at that time. In the following days, Ding Zhuqing's anger could not be explained, because of the huge anger on his back, abscesses grew on his back, and the vitality in his body disappeared little by little in the anger.

"Big brother, haven't you rested yet?" Ding Zhuhuang walked in the door and saw Ding Zhuqing lying on the bed, staring at the roof with wide eyes, he was worried and stepped forward to ask.

"How can I sleep? Zheng Duxing will not die for a day, and I can't sleep well for a day. Second brother, since you are back, send troops to recruit the Tang Sect, bring Zheng Duxing's head back, and take out this evil breath for your brother. Ding Zhuqing said, then clenched his fist and smashed it towards the head of the bed, the anger in his chest was great.

"It's a big injury, big brother, don't be angry anymore, your health is already so bad now, you won't be able to support it for a few more days if you continue like this." Ding Zhuhuang persuaded.

"As long as Zheng Duxing dies, I will naturally be safe and sound, he is really too deceitful, I must avenge this revenge." Ahem......" Ding Zhuqing coughed violently as he spoke, and spit out a mouthful of blood.

"Big brother must be calm, Zheng Duxing is deliberately angry with you, if he sees his eldest brother being angry like this by him, he must be proud in his heart. If the eldest brother wants to take revenge, there is no need to rush for a day, we will have a chance in the future. The eldest brother calms down first, as long as the eldest brother takes care of his body, everything is possible. Ding Zhuhuang persuaded.

"The second brother is right, I want to seek revenge on him, I can't be angry with him. When I kill him, I hang his head in front of the door, and I will beat him on the head with a whip every day, and I will see if he can be proud. Ding Zhuqing held back his anger and wanted to calm down, but in the end he couldn't help but scold.

"Big brother wants to be angry, right? In fact, letting Zheng Duxing live is more angry than letting him die. Ding Zhuhuang saw that Ding Zhuqing's mood had been unsolvable, so he planned to tell him some of the strategies he had discussed with Han Taozi, maybe thinking of the troubles that Zheng Duxing would encounter in the future, Ding Zhuqing's mood could calm down. As long as Ding Zhuqing's mood calms down, he will slowly unravel it in the future.

"Second brother, what do you mean by this? Could it be that the second brother still plans to make peace with Zheng Duxing, then you might as well kill me directly! Ding Zhuqing said angrily.

"Of course I won't let him go, I just let him live rather than die. Zheng Duxing has already chosen an heir, and the eldest brother already knows about it. Ding Zhuhuang said.

"Of course I know, what does it matter?"

Zheng Duxing was in the prime of life, but he chose an heir early. Who wants to be the heir for the rest of their lives? Zheng Duxing has always been withdrawn, and the people of the Tang Sect are also in awe of him, but because of this, the newly elected heir of the Tang Sect can not worry at all? Ding Zhuhuang said.

"Second brother, what do you mean by this? I'm not in a good position right now, I've figured out something, but I just can't say it. Ding Zhuqing patted his head with his hand and said, but in the end it was still unclear.

"The heir is not a good place to sit. If you are too prominent, you will be suspicious, and I am afraid that disaster will come soon; But without any expression, it will be recognized as incompetent, and in the long run, it will be difficult to establish your own authority after all, who wants to let you be a person without authority, be your own heir? I think the heir of the Tang Sect is not having a good time now. The best way to get out of all this trouble is to take the position early. Big brother, think about it, it's better to kill Zheng Duxing directly? Or would it be better to watch him and his heirs dog-eat-dog? Ding Zhuhuang said.

"Haha, of course it's good to watch them eat dogs. However, to be selected as the heir by Zheng Duxing, it must be his cronies, and it is not easy to provoke their relationship. Ding Zhuhuang first laughed, and then said with some concern.

"The word stakes can destroy all seemingly indestructible relationships, and only a truly wise person can avoid all of them. Zheng Duxing's ambitions are very great, and the heir he chose is definitely not a good stubble, and it is not difficult to make them fight. Ding Zhuhuang said.

"Okay, that's a good point, Zheng Duxing, Zheng Duxing, I'll see how you pass this level in the future, I'm going to watch you go crazy, I'm going to watch you rebel and leave, haha...... Ahem. Ding Zhuqing laughed as he spoke, but it affected his weak body, and he coughed again.

"Big brother cultivates well, let's quietly watch Zheng Duxing step by step to a dead end, and then the evil anger of the eldest brother will definitely be dissipated." Ding Zhuhuang saw that Ding Zhuqing's anger was not as strong as just now, and he was also relieved and persuaded him to let him sleep peacefully.

Out of the door, Ding Zhuhuang shook his head and couldn't help laughing; "I told my eldest brother about Miss Han's plan like this, and I don't know what Miss Han's reaction would be when she found out, so I should think it's funny. However, the eldest brother's heart knot has finally been solved a little, and as long as he cultivates for a few days, he should be able to recover. As long as the eldest brother can recover, he will be slowly relieved in the future. ”

Just as Han Taozi was heading towards the main altar of the Tang Gate, several visitors from Heluo City had already arrived at Sanlu Town in the north of Anyun.

It was late autumn, and all the trees in the town were yellow, and everything seemed deserted. But in a room on the edge of the town, two cups of hot tea are steaming, and the sound of talking and laughing from time to time also shows a completely different scene from the outside world.

"Is Mr. Lan Qi here? We are envoys sent by Lord Ken Tanaka to pick up Mr. Lan Qi back to Beijing. The carriage was ready and stopped outside the house. At the time of employing people, Mr. Xian also asked Mr. Lan Qi to return to Heluo City as soon as possible to share his worries and solve problems for Xian. A voice came from outside the house, and the words were respectful.

"Messenger, please come into the house and talk about something. As for the matter of returning to Heluo City, it is not too late for us to talk about it in the end. Lan Qi replied.

The other people did not enter the house, but only stood guard on both sides of the door, and only a ruler with a festival in his hand entered the room and said something respectfully to Lan Qi.

It turned out that the victory of Xu Huai Land greatly increased the confidence of Xian Guzhong, and he forcibly promoted the reform, and now the cabinet has been initially formed. This time, Xian Gu Zhong is going to invite Lan Qi to return to Heluo City and participate in the formation of a cabinet, and it can be seen from the messenger that Xian Gu Zhong is planning to use Lan Qi in a big way.

But the envoy said another thing, that is, Xiangu Zhong planned to crusade against Jiangnan, and wanted Lan Qi to return to Heluo City to give advice.

"We are still maintaining a peaceful situation with Jiangnan, why attack Jiangnan? In my opinion, attacking Guanbei, which is controlled by the Yaodong people, is the best policy. Lan Qi asked.

The envoy did not answer directly, but glanced at Shen Deqing.

"Deqing is his own person, he can be trusted, and the messenger can say it directly." Lan Qi said.

"Mr. Lan Qi didn't know that before his death, Xian Shuai had warned Lord Xian that he could not be the emperor until Fan Yuyi in Jiangnan was defeated. Now that the Xian people sit in the Central Plains, it is the capital of the hegemony, as long as the south of the Yangtze River is flat, the world will naturally be able to return to obedience. The messenger said.

"Lord Xian wants to be the emperor? Well...... Now that the Central Plains is already Xian's, it is only natural to be called the emperor. It's just that before becoming emperor, you still have to make some preparations. Lan Qi rolled her eyes, then replied.

"Could Mr. Lan Qi please explain, what are these preparations?" The messenger was puzzled.

"The country is rich and the army is strong, and naturally no one can stop it; Consistent inside and outside, naturally no one is invincible. These two preparations must be done well. Lan Qi said.

"Is there anything wrong with that? Can't we Anyun do these two things? The messenger was puzzled.

"My Anyun Iron Cavalry has always been the only one in the world, but since the fall of the dynasty, An Yun has been in war for a long time, can he still gather 30,000 Iron Cavalry now? Without the Anyun Iron Cavalry, can the Iron Blood Army still be said to have regained the majesty of the day? As for the second point, Xian Daren has just forcibly promoted the reform, and many powerful people are very unhappy, and they can't settle them, so they send troops to Jiangnan. Lan Qi said.

"What he said is indeed insightful, but I can't do these things. I also ask Mr. Lan Qi to follow me back to Heluo City, as long as Mr. Xian can say it in front of Mr. Xian, Mr. Xian will definitely obey Mr. Xian's words. The messenger said.

"The court is in turmoil, and I also want to go back to Heluo City and assist Lord Xian well, but I'm afraid that if I go back, I will also provoke public anger. Please also ask the messenger to report back to Lord Ken and tell Lan Qi about her difficulties. Lan Qi sighed and said.

"But Lord Xian is at the time of employing people, and there are few cronies, so how should he face those powerful people." When the envoy heard that Lan Qi was reluctant to go back, he was also anxious for a while.

"I know what kind of difficulty Ken-sama is in, and I'm going to recommend a talented person to Ken-sama. This is one of my students, named Shen Deqing, who also used to be an official in Heluocheng, but because he was not tolerated by the powerful, he was dismissed and returned to his hometown. He also has real talent and learning, and as long as Ken-sama can reuse him, he can also become a great help to Ken-sama in the future. Lan Qi said.

The envoy persuaded a few more words, but Lan Qi still refused, there was no choice but to take Shen Deqing back, it was better to bring back someone than to go back empty-handed.

"Please also ask the messenger to wait outside for a while, I still have some things I want to tell Deqing, just some private words." Lan Qi said.

The envoy was not an ignorant person, and after listening to Lan Qi's words, he withdrew from the door and gave Lan Qi and Shen Deqing a chance to talk. (To be continued.) )
