Zhang Yue returned to Jingzhou, convened the officers to discuss the army, strengthened army training, and ordered Shi Deyuan to speed up the progress of recruiting and training township soldiers, and the town soldiers were not reduced, and three full brigades were maintained. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 If the chapter of the Shangminao Dynasty can be approved, Li Duoshou will bring back the armor and equipment from Tokyo, and the Yongxing Military Government will support some more grain and grass, and the troops will be used against Lanzhou in mid-September or early October.

Once the construction of the township military service reserve is completed, the four prefectures of Jing, Yuan, Wei, and Hui under Zhang Yue will strengthen the former military towns, and the total number of soldiers mobilized will reach 22,000. If necessary, some troops can also be transferred from the Hexi Jiedu in Liangzhou in the north and the Xiongwu Jiedu in Qinzhou in the south.

Zhang Yue stepped up preparations for war in Jingzhou, while Hou Zhang, Li Duoshou and others marched quickly, and finally entered Tokyo City on the afternoon of 15 September. Li Duoshou went to the Privy Council with Hou Zhang to hand over the stickers, and after Wei Renpu met and interrogated, someone came to the palace and asked Hou Zhang to meet him.

Hou Zhang entered the palace with Wei Renpu, Li Duoshou was just a small official, and he was not qualified to meet the emperor.

It was evening, and as soon as I arrived in front of Zhang's house, I saw Lao Zhou and Zhang Yonghe, the doormen of the house, driving a carriage out of the alley. Li Duoshou hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, and of course the father-in-law should be respected.

"Yo! Li Zhiya returned to Beijing? Come in! The front yard guest rooms of several of your subordinates are reserved and can be stayed at any time, just like when you are at home. Zhang Yonghe grinned and greeted with a warm smile, his bronzed face, the wrinkles that had been covered by the phoenix frost were stretched, and the upper lip and white beard trembled, but there was also a special affinity.

"The honorable man is polite, he was ordered to go back to Beijing to do some business, and there is a letter to his wife, and a large bag of letters and money from the officers to bring back, and I have to ask the servants of the house to inform everyone to come and collect it." Li Duoshou smiled humbly and stepped forward to help Zhang Yonghe get out of the car, but the old man flicked his sleeves and jumped down neatly.

Seeing that Lao Zhou stopped the carriage and ran to the back to move things, Li Duoshou turned around and took a look, it turned out that the carriage was divided into two halves, the front half could seat two or three people, and the back was loaded with sundries. Lao Zhou put down two big baskets, which were actually vegetables and dried grains, oils and fruits, which must have been brought back by the vegetable market.

"What? Don't you have a letter to the old man? Even if it's a sentence, it's good! When Zhang Yonghe heard this, he was a little unhappy, and walked up the steps of the front yard with his hands behind his back. The porter Lao Zhang heard the sound of many people talking, opened the door and came out to see, just in time to welcome everyone in.

Li Duoshou was stunned, and suddenly didn't know what to say, so he beckoned the soldiers to bring their luggage and follow into the house.

"Uncle Zhang! These are letters from the lady of the back house, and it is not easy to get in from a humble position, so I am tired of handing them in. Li Duoshou handed the letter to Lao Zhang and took his own soldiers to the guest compound. I didn't want everyone to just carry the luggage in and put it away, Lao Zhang came back and said that Mrs. wanted to see him.

Li Duoshou was a little surprised, and when he left the compound, he saw Qingzhu waiting there, and he smiled and waved his hand, letting Qingzhu lead the way to the atrium, and saw that Cheng Yachan, Song Yaozhu and other wives and concubines in the back house were chattering on the eaves, and they were still holding letterheads in their hands, making fun of each other. The two nurses and the children watched the excitement on the side, and the maidservants also gathered around the children to make fun of the children.

Li Duoshou was suddenly a little embarrassed, and came back all the way in a hurry, without preparing any gifts, and saw the two little girls, a boy, with a chubby little face and a simple face, and the big black eyes were cute, but it was not easy to look at them.

As soon as he stepped up the steps and entered the main hall, he saw the main mother Fu sitting on the top with a big belly that had been pregnant for five or six months, and the little master mother Bian was accompanying her, Li Duoshou glanced up slightly, and after a few steps into the door, he respectfully saluted from afar: "The humble Li Duoshou has seen the two housewives, what are the orders, but please instruct!" ”

Fu Jinqiong smiled and raised her hand to signal: "Secretary Li doesn't have to be polite, sit down and talk back!" ”

Li Duoshou grinned, but stood with his eyes lowered and didn't move, Bian Yu couldn't help but be a little funny, and interjected: "Why didn't that Shen come back, is she pregnant?" We're not going to find another one, are we? ”

Li Duoshou resisted the urge to laugh, and replied with a stiff face: "No! The Shen family lives in a simple place, and I rarely see subordinates such as me, since the lord took office, he has been very busy, and he is about to use troops abroad, and he has no spare time. Besides, the lord is a clean and self-righteous person, his life has always been self-disciplined, he never asks for flowers and willows, and the officialdom ushers in the send-off, and there is a custom of sending concubines and maids to each other to recommend pillow seats, and the lord does not want to do it, and the concubines and maids do not give it away. ”

"Huh...... Yes, he's not an abusive person. Fu Jinqiong said with a smile, thought about it and said: "I heard that he overhauled the military system in Jingzhou, and he said that he wanted to reform the state and county system, and the ministers of the DPRK and China quarreled for a long time. Now that Empress Fu has passed away, no one in our family in the harem can speak, so I advise him to be cautious. ”

"Yes! The lowly rank and Mr. Feng also advised him in this way, and the matter of restructuring has been put on hold. Li Duoshou replied.

"There's nothing else to do, let the housekeeper notify you when you leave, and you can bring a reply." Fu Jinqiong had been smiling gently, but with the demeanor of a hostess, she waved back inadvertently.

"Good! Humble duty must be notified. Li Duoshou arched his hand, took a few steps back, and turned out of the middle hall.

At the same time, in the living room of the apse of the Jinxiang Palace, since the death of Empress Fu, Guo Rong rarely returns to the Zide Palace, and only occasionally goes to see the prince's Zongxun, he mostly lives in the Jinxiang Palace to deal with political affairs until late at night, and rarely summons the concubines to come to sleep.

Because none of those vulgar fans who only know flattery understand him, and none of them can compare to Queen Fu's gentleness and thoughtfulness, and they are good at soothing the anger in his heart and some emotional agitation. Letting those concubines accompany you will only add to the emptiness.

In fact, when the Fu family first entered the door in Lanzhou, Guo Rong was disgusted in his heart, he didn't like Guo Wei's arrangement in his heart, and the marriage with the wealthy family made him even more resistant, but later Fu's performance deeply moved Guo Rong and salivated for him to have a child. And now, Fu's illness is forever away from him, Guo Rong is exhausted and extremely distressed, often staying up late to review and make up chapters, and has become much more depressed and haggard recently.

"Qing's table, I'm all right! It is not easy to recover Liangzhou, and after the chaos, it must be governed to calm the people's hearts. The 50,000 people who migrated from Huainan will go north to Guanzhong via Wuguan Road through Nanyang, and the Yongxing Military Government will arrange it, and Hou Qing can take it away when he returns to the town. The Uighurs of Ganzhou supported the Ori clan, and I sent an envoy to reprimand him. In addition, Jingzhou Zhang Yue made up for the reform of the state and county administrative system, Hou Qing should know, but what suggestions do you have? Guo Rong sat behind the stilted imperial case and said a little tiredly.

Hou Zhang quietly glanced at the emperor's face, hesitated for a moment, and replied cautiously: "There are many wealthy families in Jingzhou, if you want to restrict them from annexing fields, Zhang Yuanzhen's strategy is undoubtedly good, but in this way, I am afraid that it will arouse the disgust of the great clans of the Kwantung states, and His Majesty intends to conquer Huainan, for the stability of the government and the opposition, and for the overall situation, but it is not suitable to implement it." ”

"Not bad! Qing's opinion is very pertinent, and Zhang Yue's strategy is not unfeasible, they are all long-term and stable, and they are always the best way to seek the country, but it is just out of place! However, the set of state and county grassroots township protection system he implemented in Huizhou was approved! Now...... Hehuang Tubo returned to the country, what do the two Aiqing think? Guo Rong said, turning his head to look at Wei Renpu.

"Back to Your Majesty! Zhang Yuanzhen suggested that the two roads should send troops, fight quickly, and solve the Hehuang problem once and for all, but in this way, it is difficult for the grain in Guanzhong to supply Huainan, so the minister thinks that it is better to delay the attack, so as not to have a big war on both fronts, and the national strength is difficult to sustain. Wei Renpu said.

"Huh! This is Fan Wen's stubbornness, have you all become his echo worms? Guo Rong is inclined to Zhang Yue's quick battle, so that if Hehuang is solved, Zhang Yue will be able to free up his hands and be transferred to the Huainan battlefield as soon as possible, but he also has to consider the suggestions of Fan Zhen and others. Yes, the emperor was helpless many times.

"Your Majesty is clear! Wen Su Xianggong agreed with the minister, so he suggested it, and it was by no means echoed. But the minister also has a word, take the strategy of slowing down the attack, with Zhang Yuanzhen as the commander to march into the army as soon as possible to show the attitude of the court, Hexi, Xiongwu two towns each send two armies to help, grain and grass to make the three towns around Changyi Jingnan, Xiongwu, and Guanxiang to be transferred nearby, and the Yongxing army should support the immigration of Liangzhou, and it can not be adjusted more. Wei Renpu thought that he would use troops against Huainan again next year, and Yin would never be able to eat food.

"Let's go! So be it! Qingtang Qiang Department of the beginning of the country, the foundation is not solid, should be dealt with as soon as possible, tomorrow morning to draw up the decree, to the Ministry of Water Wailang, the knowledge of the system of the edict, the degree of the branch of the Wailang, Hanlin Bachelor Wang Shu as the chief and deputy edict envoys, can go with the will, by the way to understand the situation in the river Huang, send people to Ganzhou edict reprimand. Guo Rong stroked his forehead tiredly, waved the sleeve of his robe and said.

The next morning, Hou Zhang also participated in Beijing, and the officials gathered the state officials and county officials who had taken office in Liangzhou, Hexi, as well as immigration affairs, and drafted the decree in court. Later, an edict was issued: The Qingtang Fan chieftain stole the land of China, Mu Monkey and the crown ordered Zhuqiang to make chaos, ignore the rules and regulations of the court, do not learn Chinese etiquette, and raise soldiers to punish crimes.

Today, the Duke of Qiyang County, the General of the Auxiliary State, the Doctor of Jin Ziguanglu, the Xuanfu Envoy of Hehuang, and the Envoy of Zhangyi Jiedu of Jingzhou Zhang Yue are recruiting envoys for Hehuang, and they will march into the army on a certain day.

Zhang Jianxiong, the envoy of the Qinzhou Xiongwu Festival, was the deputy envoy of Hehuang and led the Xiongwu army to the expedition; With Liangzhou Assassin Shi Xuan Chongwen as the commander of the soldiers and horses, he led the provincial envoy and led the Hexi army to conquest.

With Zhai Congen, the observation envoy of Hexi and Changyi, and Chang Deben, the deputy observation envoy, as the logistics and military supply transfer envoys, they will transfer grain to the nearest place as soon as possible to provide military supplies for the army.

On the same day, the edict was issued, and after the early dynasty, some Chinese officials left Beijing and went to Kansai to proclaim the edict. Hou Zhang sent someone to inform Li Duoshou that he still had a lot to do, Zhang Yue entrusted him to help apply for 5,000 more sets of armor, plus the Hexi Army was also in urgent need of equipment, and he had to entrust someone to go through the relationship with this large amount, so that the armor could be moved out of the treasury of the prison.
