Sending Zhang Duo away, Zhang Yue led the civil and military officials back to the government hall to officially inspect the matter. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Info has taken over the Jingyuan Zhangyi Jiedu, and the staff officials need to be filled in so that they can familiarize themselves with the affairs as soon as possible.

According to the system, the deputy envoy of the section degree is not permanent, and the subordinate staff can be selected by the section commander himself, or he can be filled by the leading officer. The predecessor Zhang Duo was a veteran marshal with his own staff, and Zhang Yue did not have so many candidates.

The first thing to grasp is the tooth army directly managed by the section marshal, temporarily controlled by Liu Wenbo, the deputy capital, and is making the position vacant, which Zhang Duo deliberately set aside, and there is no suitable candidate at present.

The second is the pro-soldiers, the general generals have three or five hundred people, in the section marshal, called the festival degree of the ya, the leader of the army can be the commander of the ya, or the head of the ya, how much self-determined, the main commander of the flag and drum guard of honor, the guard attendant. This position was temporarily commanded by Li Duoshou as the commander.

Most of the marching Sima was filled by officers, who were not only military staff officers, but also in charge of local affairs, and there was no suitable candidate. Feng Qianhou is the judge of the festival degree, and he is in charge of the documents and files; Except for Yatui Liu Wenchang, the rest of the subordinate staff members all left with Zhang Duo.

Next, let the states report their own military quotas, population, finances and taxes, and just give up a cursory understanding, and more specific and detailed affairs need to be visited in detail in detail, and this is not urgent.

Sent away a group of officials, put away the handsome seals and runes, Zhang Yue and Feng Qianhou took the account books, and asked Liu Wenchang to lead the way to the treasury to see, the grain and grass were only enough to spend, the ordnance was all dilapidated, and the cash was only four or five thousand, and there was no interest at all.

"I don't know that this is the surplus after paying the autumn tax, and the deficit in previous years is not enough to make up." Liu Wenchang explained.

"Hell, the villages I saw along the way were dilapidated, the water conservancy was not prosperous, the roads were potholes, the city walls were badly weathered, the city gates were also damaged, and the government inventory was so empty, where did all the tax money go?" Zhang Yue was speechless and angry. Although he had money himself, it was private, but fortunately, when he came, he reminded him, went to the Privy Council to declare, and asked for two thousand sets of armor and weapons.

"Forget it, what else can I do, let's clean the room and stay first!" Feng Qianhou persuaded with a smile.

Like a castle, the Jiedu Mansion is composed of 16 courtyards of all sizes, covering an area of more than 30 acres. The gate into the front hall courtyard, through the instrument door into the atrium, left and right ear room, inside is the festival hall, and then behind is the daily office of the festival room, this is a small quadrangle.

The large courtyard at the back is the residence of the festival marshal, divided into the front and rear halls, and there is a small garden, a small school field, and twenty or thirty houses on the other side of the side courtyard wall, which is to house the guards and soldiers.

Zhang Yue took Feng Qianhou to take a walk around his house, as well as four slaves, two maidservants, and two cooks, and there were no other idle people. The luggage was all in the back with the family and did not come, so I had to settle again. It wasn't until noon the next day that Yang Xuanli escorted Fu Jinqiong to arrive. Feng Qianhou's mother, wife and children also arrived, so they moved to live in the courtyard.

As soon as these people are numerous, they have to buy materials for daily flowers. In the afternoon of the same day, Zhang Yue changed into regular clothes, took his wife to the street, specially bought firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea, and took a look at the city defense by the way, and inspected the life of the small people in the city.

Jingzhou City is a big city, located on the north bank of Jingshui, the four city walls are each seven miles long, the circumference is 28 miles, the population in the city reached 300,000 in the Tang Kaiyuan period. However, unlike the Central Plains, most of the houses in the northwestern desert are a little low, unlike the buildings in Tokyo, which have high foundations, and they are all flat houses. The streets of the castle are quite wide and lined with shops, and due to the reconquest of Huishu, the number of merchants crossing the border has increased, and the commercial prosperity of the market has been brought about.

When they went out, Fu Zhaoji and Zhang Cheng drove four carriages with 100 personal soldiers, and when they returned, they were all loaded with goods, mainly grain, vegetables, silk and satin cloth, and various household utensils.

After half a day, when I returned to the mansion and had to arrange the room, the woman was very particular about living at home, Zhang Yue was also helpless, and brought a few servants to help, the guest hall and bedroom were newly decorated, and the study was also cleaned up, and I didn't want to move when I sat down, and unconsciously watched the night become thick outside the window, silently combing what I wanted to do in the future.

Bian Ji's previous merchant Shanzhou was attacked in Limenshui and killed the head of the attacker's leader, if it was an ordinary person, it would be just an ordinary person, and the chief of the clan would not give up if something happened. The matter in Liangzhou is said to have subsided, and it is possible to act as a person like Jiashi, and it is impossible to only take the Chishui Military City and the Tonggu Army.

But now in the winter, the use of troops is very unfavorable, the supply of grain and grass is a big problem, and there is no news about the Minato that Liu Ci delivered to Tokyo, and I don't know if the matter can be approved.

"Alang! Why don't you turn on the lights when it's dark? When dinner is ready, where should I use it? Qingzhu pushed open the door, took a lantern and asked, a little surprised.

"Hmm...... What about Joanniang? Let's go to the kitchen vestibule! Zhang Yue came back to his senses, got up and walked to the small hall on the east side of the backyard, where the green bamboo was shining behind with a lantern.

"Those two cooks are not good at cooking, and the lady cooks a table of meals and is waiting!" Qingzhu replied.

A few candlesticks in the hall are brightly lit, and there are cups and plates of bamboo chopsticks on the table, exuding a strong mutton fragrance, and a pot of Hongxing dry rice wine from Yanzhou, which looks good. Seeing Zhang Yue come in and sit down, Fu Jinqiong picked up the blue and white porcelain bowl, took a spoon and took two bowls of refined corn from the copper basin, and handed them to him.

"This plate of Jinghe carp is fried well, so I don't want the wine! Let's eat! Zhang Yue said lightly, picked up the bamboo chopsticks and started eating. In these years, high-ranking officials and nobles have dinner at home, even if they are wives, they don't eat with their husbands, and Zhang Yue's family is an exception, which has become a habit.

"It's good to be tired all the way, relax your muscles and invigorate your blood, and drink some wine!" Fu Jinqiong smiled, spoke softly, and when she saw that Zhang Yue didn't want wine, she let Qingzhu take it away, holding her sleeve with one hand, so as not to hang down and get on the cup and plate; Pick up a piece of mutton with a bamboo chopstick in one hand, stretch out your arm and reach it into the Zhang Yue bowl.

This is also influenced by Zhang Yue, other people's homes do not have this custom, and it is regarded as unclean. The people of the upper class are still divided into meals, and the common meal is only popular among the small people at the bottom and among the peddlers.

"Let's talk about something, I have to rush to Huining tomorrow, and I don't know if I want to use troops if something happens in Liangzhou, I'm afraid I will have to leave for a long time." Zhang Yue said helplessly, the family of martial artists is like this, every year there is less gathering and more separation. This time I took my wife to the post, I made a lot of arrangements in advance, and I specially went to the palace to ask for instructions, but I didn't say it so clearly, and the emperor also understood.

"I didn't see that I made a table of wine and food to treat you, but I didn't appreciate it. But you must go back to Jingzhou on Chinese New Year's Eve, otherwise I will return to Tokyo at the beginning of the year, it is too deserted here, there is no excitement at home, you say how I should spend my days. It's strange to say, it's very annoying to listen to children crying at home, but I'm not used to it. Fu Jinqiong smiled bitterly.

"That's true, but it's just the two of us!" Zhang Yue's thick eyebrows stretched, grinning meaningfully to convey a certain meaning, and said: "I'll try my best, if nothing happens, I can come back in a month." ”

"Poor mouth! I'm not with you! Actually, I've secretly eaten and gone to prepare your clothes and take a hot bath. When Fu Jinqiong heard this, two red glows flew on her face, pursed her lips and smiled, and got up to go to the bath. (To be continued.) )
