As soon as the report to Su Pingjiang was sent away, the envoy who opened the Qing City arrived.

In addition to the funeral letter, the envoy also conveyed a decision of the imperial court, that is, to abolish the crown prince, the reason is that the king killed his father, and the current regent is temporarily by Xiangguo Gong, who is the prince's five uncles.

He Ran made an unwilling but helpless look to meet and sent the envoy,

There were more lookout posts on the city of Kaiqing, closely watching the movements of the Yi army, and the next day when they saw the Loui army began to slowly retreat, the people in the city couldn't help but smile and breathe a long sigh of relief, and they didn't care that this kind of look should not appear in the middle of the national mourning.

The soldiers retreated for a hundred miles, without waiting for He Ran to find King Fan, but King Fan came first, he didn't come to see He Ran, because he didn't know that He Ran had come before, he came to ask why Shi Lang Yijun withdrew for no reason,

Unexpectedly seeing He, King Fan was very happy, pointed at him and said, "This withdrawal is probably what the hell you are doing." ”

He Ran informed the righteous brother of the death of King Shun, and explained the rules of "etiquette and mourning" in the Central Plains, and then said with a smile: "You don't pay attention to these, so the elder brother can wave his army to attack the rest of the city, but it is better to stay away from Qingcheng, and you have to guard against Baigongbo, this kid is not easy to mess with, your brother-in-law almost suffered a big loss from him." ”

Not long after Wuqiu's distress, the news had not yet reached Fanying, so Shi Lang had to explain again,

King Fan secretly pinched a cold sweat when he heard this, blamed Shi Lang for being too careless, and had the heart to say a few words to him, but in the end he held back, although he was his brother-in-law, but it was still Yi Guo's order, so he could only find a chance to tell him again in private,

"You are really pedantic enough, the battle has been fought to this point, and the other party's king will give up the good situation and stop fighting, I see this kind of courtesy, don't keep it."

He Ran said with a smile: "There are many similar etiquette here in the Central Plains, doesn't my brother always say that he yearns for the state of etiquette, I already know that you will definitely not be able to stand it when you arrive." ”

King Fan was speechless for a while, and then shook his head and said: "This rule is too fake, why bother pretending to behave when the head is broken and bleeding on both sides." ”

Shi Lang said helplessly: "This is a gift of the ancients, and the people of China deeply believe it, and if they don't obey it, they will lose the hearts of the people." ”

"That'...... Then you're really going to wait here for three months. ”

He Ran winked at him and said, "We have thought of a workaround, brother arson to disturb, we see the opportunity to kill a horse gun." ”

King Fan laughed and said, "I know that you kid won't honestly abide by these pedantic rules, say it, let me fight." ”

He Ran pointed at Shi Lang and said, "Ask him, I don't care about anything this time, just be the one who doesn't worry." ”

King Fan sighed: "It's enough to bother with one thing, the two of you will not have a good life if you get together and become generals in the world." ”

He Ran smiled, blinked his eyes and diverted the topic: "Uh......, this battle was fought too smoothly, there are too many cities to gain, and there are not enough officials on our side, I don't know what happened to my brother's side." ”

Fan Wang was worried about this matter, and heard him mention it with a wry smile: "We used to come to the Central Plains just to loot, although we have made preparations this time, but at the moment we are still anxious, not to mention anything else, even the translation is not enough, let alone governance, originally I did not agree with the use of killing to suppress the people, but then I had to do it, the front is busy attacking the city, and the rear is full of riots, and it is not good to kill the killer." ”

He Ran smiled: "We have already thought of it, so we are going to send some officials to my brother." ”

King Fan said happily: "This has helped me a lot, don't you know, because the governance matter is in a mess, and those ministers who oppose moving to the Central Plains have not bothered me for several days, advocating a plunder or returning to the grassland as soon as possible, I don't have any confidence, good brother, you send someone quickly." ”

He Ran blinked and said, "I've already ordered to go back, but ...... This kind of thing can't be done entirely by order, and these officials have to be willing to do it themselves, otherwise the resentful past will not only not be able to help but also make trouble, so it is estimated that there will not be too many people who can be transferred. ”

"How many can there be." King Fan asked urgently,

He Ran looked at the geographical map, gestured with his hand, and said, "The area that my brother got is almost this one." ”

King Fan nodded and said, "Almost." ”

He Ran smiled with ulterior motives: "There are not so many officials, but if they work harder...... It can be maintained in a short time, but I'm afraid it won't work if there are more cities, what do you say, Xiangling. ”

Shi Lang was secretly amused, so he had to give a vague "um",

Fan Wang was already very satisfied, and when he wanted to say thank you, he suddenly thought of He Ran's strange smile, thought for a while and then understood, leaned over and punched him in the chest, and said: "Good boy, I am playing tricks with me again, I think I occupy too much space, right, just say no." ”

He Ran said with a smile: "No, no, there are really not so many officials, we don't have enough ourselves, I don't believe you ask him." ”

King Fan glanced at Shi Lang, then turned to He Ran and said, "You don't have to push him, I will fall on you for this matter." ”

He Ran said with a bitter face: "It's really not that much, brother, please think about it, we were only three cities at the beginning, even if there are officials everywhere, we previously occupied more than 30 cities in Shun State, and recently occupied more than 30 cities in Zhao State, and now there are more than 30 or 50 new cities, brother calculates it himself, what I said is a lie." ”

King Fan thought for a while and said: "Well, that's what I said, it's hard for you, in this case, you can still send some officials to me, okay, my brother is not a greedy person, just limit the area he currently occupies, and I don't want to build the city again, I give it all to you, just take it as a thank you gift to the officials." ”

Shi Lang secretly gave He Ran a disdainful look,

The brotherhood shown by King Fan made He Ran a little embarrassed, and said with a weak heart: "I have to make it clear to my brother, these officials were all laid off by us, and they are no longer suitable under the new policy, but the younger brother will select those who are passable in talent and conduct to give to his brother, there will be no corrupt officials, and those people will almost be killed by me." ”

King Fan said generously: "As long as you can settle the people first, and then talk about the future, our set of governance methods is indeed not suitable for the Central Plains, we need to reformulate the law, I have to talk about the ugly words in front, as soon as the war is over, you have to come over to help me govern and revise the law, and then you want to shirk I don't agree." ”

He Ran patted his chest and said: "Wrap it up on me, although the younger brother doesn't have any ability in this, but as long as it takes a while, we can send more officials to help my brother, yes, has my brother considered imitating us to carry out a new policy, if that is the case, it will be much simpler, and there will not be too many officials." ”

"Although I know something about your new policy, I don't know much about it, so you can go back and find someone to explain it to me."

Shi Lang interjected: "The new policy was formulated by him, and no one knows it better than him, so if you want to ask, you should ask him." ”

He Ran glanced at him angrily, and said, "How can I have spare time at the moment, besides, many of the provisions of the new deal were negotiated by the lords of the DPRK and China, and they are far from the few words of Zangxian Valley, and they will not be able to be explained in a while." As he spoke, he turned to King Fan, "I'll send a subordinate who is familiar with the new government to go back with my brother, and my brother will have a closer look when I have time." ”

King Fan frowned and looked at him and said: "You have pushed the matter of the war to the prime minister, what else do you have to do, why don't you have any work." ”

He Ran said with a pretended profound expression: "Didn't I say just now, I have to break the rule of 'etiquette and not mourning', I just want to do this." ”

"Oh, okay, I won't ask you all this nonsense, you and my brother will have a few bowls of wine first, and then you will be busy with yours, and I will discuss with Xiang Ling how to fight next."

He Ran said to Shi Lang: "See, they don't have any pedantic rules, but the rule that you have to drink just when you meet is enough to kill people." ”
