"Phew...... What the fuck is this? ”

For dinner that day, everyone's bowl was filled with dark green plants and soup that exuded a rich bitter taste. The unprepared soldiers took a bite and immediately frowned and cursed.

The performance of these people made Zhou Yi seem to see what he looked like when he first ate this bitter herb, what was the difference between himself and them at that time? It's just that later, the more he eats, the more he likes to eat, and in the end he can't stop at all, and something like bitter cabbage has been upgraded to the best delicacy in his mind.

But gradually, everyone found that after chewing, this bitter thing will gradually become sweet, and the tongue will become delicious. They had never experienced such wonderful food, and they immediately feasted on it.

A full 20,000 catties of bitter vegetables, forty percent of them were wiped out in one meal, leaving 12,000 catties, but there were still many other dishes, and so was rice. Zhou Yi couldn't help but be overjoyed, and ordered the Huotou Army to soak these bitter herbs in public water for later use. The iron pot was fastened to the sides of the horse with rattan, and the cavalry suddenly turned into infantry, and the army continued to move forward.

It took three days to eat the bitter vegetables, but he only consumed one day's usual military rations, which was equivalent to saving two days of military rations, which made Zhou Yi very happy. But Tang Wuyi gave him a thumbs up directly: "My lord is really a god!" ”

Mt. Omo is a north-south canyon with unattainable cliffs on the left and right sides, and only Mt. Omo and Mt. Tokoyama are the only places where the east-west mountains seem to be hit by a force from the north and protrude towards the south. A huge canyon is formed. At the end of the canyon. It was the destination of this march.

Because it was the war initiated by the Great Song Dynasty. Therefore, when Zhou Yi and the others arrived, these places were still very calm, although they had been notified, but they were just a little more nervous than usual. After all, this is a mountainous area, and there are not many people living there. Zhou Yi's task now is to wait for the arrival of the large army.

This waiting time was not long, only ten days later, Zhou Yi got the news that the army from the imperial court was already less than a hundred miles away from Yi Yingfeng's troops. Tomorrow will arrive, and the leader is actually Tong Guan! At this moment, his identity is the Xuanfu envoy, leading an army of 80,000.

Tong Guan is one of the "six thieves". Clever and charming, the first worship officer, in Hangzhou for Huizong to collect calligraphy and painting KitKat, to help Cai Jing as the prime minister, Beijing recommended him as the northwest supervisor. In the first year of Zhenghe, Tong Guan was named the captain of the school and sent an envoy to the Khitan.

Someone said, "Use eunuchs as envoys." Is there no one in the country? ”

The emperor said: "The Khitan heard that Tong Guan defeated the Qiang people, so they wanted to see him. It is also a good policy to use him as an envoy to inspect the enemy's country. ”

Tong Guan brought Liao back, and he was more powerful and held military and political power inside and outside the court. So he asked to send troops to Hengshan in the Xia Kingdom, and the imperial court ordered him to serve as a lieutenant as a Xuanfu envoy in Shaanxi, Hedong, and Hebei.

Soon, for the opening of the palace with the three divisions, signed the Privy Council Hexi and North two rooms.

For less than three years, he was in charge of the Privy Council. In addition, he commanded nine towns such as Wuxin, Wuning, Huguo, Hedong, Shannan Dongdao, and Jiannan Dongchuan, and was Taifu and Jingguogong. At that time, people called Cai Jing the prime minister, and Tong Guan was the prime minister.

He was the eunuch who controlled the military power in Chinese history, the eunuch who received the highest knighthood, the first eunuch to represent the country, and the first eunuch to be canonized as king.

Tong Guan, who is sixty-five years old this year, can't tell his real age at all because he is dressed and fed all day long, although his figure is not strong, but he is also heroic on a horse. Yi Yingfeng, Zhou Yi and Tang Wuyi each took their close men and formed a team of more than 100 people, and went to the place where they were stationed thirty miles south to meet Tong Guan's army.

It was not the first time Zhou Yi had seen Tong Guan, so he didn't feel unfamiliar, but he was shocked that the imperial court actually sent him to lead an army.

In the huge tent, Zhou Yi and the other three met him in Tong Guan's tent. Tong Guan first looked at Zhou Yi, after not seeing him for a while, Zhou Yi's complexion became darker, and he was no different from Yi Yingfeng next to him.

"Hengzhi, how many months have you been in office, do you feel okay?" Tong Guan asked with a smile, Zhou Yi now is very different from before in terms of appearance, I am afraid that many people will not recognize him when he goes back now.

Zhou Yi clasped his fists and bowed, and then returned: "Thanks to the care of the ambassador and the blessing of the mighty emperor, Wei Chen has received the help of many people after his arrival, so he will be able to complete his work soon, but this Lord Yi and Lord Tang have a lot of support for Wei Chen." ”

"Oh? It seems that your kid is lucky, haha, I heard that you made a lot of noise after you arrived, and now I guess it's true that you look like this. How about taking on a new challenge? "At this moment, Tong Guan is not at all like a great eunuch who is full of diligence in the government and the opposition, but more like a kind old man. Maybe even though he has done so many ridiculous things, his status is still so high, and it has something to do with his attitude, and he can get along with anyone, of course, he is rising step by step.

Yi Yingfeng and Tang Wuyi next to him were both shocked, listening to this tone, could it be that Zhou Yi, who had just been in office for less than two months, would it be possible that he would be promoted again? He is not yet twenty years old, and he has already achieved the high position that many people have never dreamed of in their lifetime, so should he continue to go up now?

But think about it, with his ability, it seems that no matter how high the position is, it is not too much!

Zhou Yi was also shocked in his heart, he deeply understood that it was not a good thing for him to be promoted too quickly, the foundation was unstable, the connections were thin, the higher he climbed, the more enemies he had, and when he accidentally fell, he would fall more painfully than others, and he might even be crushed.

Seeing that he didn't reply, Tong Guan's tone was a little tougher, and said, "What, don't you dare?" ”

Zhou Yi sighed, can he say that he doesn't dare? Now that he is alone, even if Tong Guan kills him on the spot, no one will say anything.

"No, it's just that Wechen's self-sustaining strength may not be competent, if we wait for Wechen to be able to deal with the situation in front of him in the future, it may be better." Zhou Yi said euphemistically, the most important thing for him now is to establish his own connections and forces, without these two things, no matter how big an official he is, it is no different from a soft persimmon that can be kneaded.

Tong Guan's brows only relaxed at this time, and he said with a smile: "Don't think about it, aren't you doing a good job now?" In fact, everyone's ability is exercised. No one is born with everything, the official family believes in you, and I believe in you, so you can do it boldly, you have given me many surprises, maybe the next one will still be a surprise? ”

"In that case, then, Weichen will be ordered."

So Tong Guan took out the holy decree, it seems that this has been prepared in advance!

In front of everyone's eyes, in the shocked and envious eyes of Yi Yingfeng and Tang Wuyi, Zhou Yi transformed into a real pacification envoy and concurrently served as the prefect of Zhending Mansion!

The prefect who is less than twenty years old! If this news gets out, I don't know how much shock it will cause.

It's just that Zhou Yi is also very puzzled in his heart, how could the group of old guys above the court let themselves become such a big official so smoothly? Isn't it supposed to cry, make trouble, and hang yourself to stop this from happening?

"Answering orders, what are you doing in a daze?" Tong Guan saw Zhou Yi standing on the spot, and thought that Zhou Yi was frightened by the speed of his promotion, and couldn't help laughing in his heart, thinking about his own back then, it seemed that he was much faster than Zhou Yi's promotion, right?

Zhou Yi sighed, put his hands on it, and said, "The minister accepts the order." ”

Now that things have come to this point, Zhou Yi is helpless, his original plan was not like this, he thought that after becoming the champion, he would go to a certain county magistrate, he had already planned a county seat in his mind. But reality tells him that plans will never catch up with change. The dream of the county order in my heart has not yet had time to be implemented, and now he has become the prefect of Zhending Mansion, which is six grades higher than the county order!

Tang Wuyi and Yi Yingfeng's admiration for Zhou Yi in their hearts was still brewing, and they heard Tong Guan continue: "Well, now that you have become the prefect of Zhending Mansion, even if the position of the pacification envoy is implemented, then if it is revealed, the internal affairs of my 80,000 people will also be under your control." ”

Zhou Yi was so frightened that he almost sat on the ground on the spot, the internal affairs of 60,000 people were already about to make him scramble, although the scenery in front of the people, but who could see the happiness and suffering behind the people? He already felt like a supercomputer, and the only thing he did all day long was to calculate the distribution and arrangement of various supplies. Now Tong Guan has added 80,000 people to him as soon as he opens his mouth, which is equivalent to directly doubling his workload, which makes him feel miserable. Thinking about those officials who died suddenly from overwork, Zhou Yi felt a chill in his back spine, Lao Tzu didn't want to die young......

But in this situation, can I refuse? No, he suddenly remembered a sentence, people are forced out.

Now, Zhou Yi's task is to manage the eating, drinking, and Lazar of 140,000 people. What is the concept of 140,000 people, suppose a person occupies a distance of one foot, so that people stand up next to each other, 140,000 people and 140,000 feet, and the queue is more than 100 miles!

With such a huge team, Zhou Yi has become their "food and clothing parents" all of a sudden, I have to say, this is really a miracle, throughout the hundred years of the Great Song Dynasty, the imperial court has never had such an arrangement for anyone.

Zhou Yi couldn't help but smile bitterly, this is considered happiness coming too suddenly, or should I say the last sentence, it's time to show real technology? (To be continued......)
