He Jing blinked, looked at Yu An with a smile, and said slowly: "Shiping, your king is really a saint." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”

Yu An is not a fool, he heard the disdain from He Jing's words, and he did not argue: "A saint is not a saint, he doesn't seem to care, not to mention that he often criticizes the words of the saint." However, most of our young people in Vietnam believe in this sentence very much, of course, we believe it ourselves, and we do not force others to believe it. ”

He bit the words of others more heavily, He Jing listened to it, his face was stunned, and then he smiled again, pointed at Yu An and smiled: "Shiping, you are wilted and wilted now, am I still someone else?" The smile on his face was a little dim, he stopped talking, and sighed: "We are world friends, so we won't hide it." This time I came out of Wu State, I definitely won't be able to go back, except for the more than 10,000 elite soldiers Sun Quan can't take away, the others are probably not my He family, which of the six counties ......"

He Jing shook his head, and his words were very regretful.

"It's only six counties, it's worth your long sigh?" Yu Fan walked in from the outside, just picked up He Jing's words, he fluffed the hem of his clothes, sat opposite He Jing with a golden knife, took the teacup handed over by Yu An's hands and drank it all, wiped his mouth, and then smiled: "Shixin is just a Ye Township, Xinding, Liyang, and Xiuyang are just a township in She County, in fact, Xindu County is the scale of two counties, less than 20,000 households." I really can't figure out how a talent like He Bomiao could be satisfied with this less than 20,000 households. Do you know how much your brother has now? ”

He Jing's face flushed, and he lowered his head and said nothing. Yu Fu is very clear about the household registration in various places, he has also stayed in Danyang for a while, and he also knows the situation of the He family very well. The He family's biggest reliance is on more than 10,000 elite soldiers, most of the income of Xindu County's food and yi has to support more than 10,000 people, and the remaining income can barely meet the luxurious life of their father and son, in fact, it is not as beautiful as it seems, otherwise He Qi would not have sent He Da to Sun Shao's side. After several years of hard work, Heda has become a major general in the infantry of the Yue Army, and his subordinates are also in charge of thousands of people, and he has surpassed the marquis of Qianhu as early as two years ago, and obtained an island in Haizhou as a fiefdom, although this island does not have many hukou, but it is rich in spices, and the income is far more abundant than that of Xindu County. What's more, although He Da has a very bad temper, and no one is willing to deal with him when he is under Sun Quan, but under Sun Shao's hands, he is prosperous, and he also writes a book and says that the book he wrote "On Mountain and Jungle Tactics" even He Qi, who has fought all his life, agreed, and it can be said that he has a family and a business.

"You're no worse than your brother, it's just a few years late, work hard, and you have a chance to play." Yu Chuan comforted He Jing and said: "The top priority is to take care of your body, familiarize yourself with the situation of my country, and if you have the opportunity, go to the military academy to listen to the class, I believe it will inspire you." ”

He Jing bared his teeth, a little reluctant, he and his brother He Da originally had some battle of will, and he did have two brushes to fight, and now he was going to listen to He Da's lecture, and he felt a little embarrassed. Yu saw it, and he didn't persuade much, after all, this was a matter between their brothers.

"Haven't you been fighting lately?"

"At least there wasn't a big fight." Yu Pan drank tea, "It's enough for Lu Xun to bring 10,000 people there, most of them will be trained in Funan, and your 30,000 people will ......" Yu Fu pouted: "It's good to be able to get half of it, those who are less than twenty and more than fifty, all of them are singled out, those who should study and those who should be supported are old, don't mix in the army and waste money." ”

He Jing was taken aback, according to what Yu said, it would be amazing that his more than 10,000 people could be left with 3,000 people in the end.

"Don't be in a hurry." Yu glanced at He Jing's thoughts, and he sneered: "In two days, your brother will return to Temu City with the king, you go and see those people under your brother, and then you will know why." ”

He Jing replied, not daring to squeak again, but there was a pimple in his heart. More than 10,000 people suddenly became more than 3,000 people, and he originally felt that he was very powerful, but now he is at most about the same as an ordinary general of the Yue Kingdom, where is there any sense of superiority. But thinking about Cheng Shi and Han Zong, he had some comfort in his heart, if according to Yu Xuan's standards, there would probably be a few hundred of them left.

Unexpectedly, in mid-July, He Da and others came back, but Sun Shao did not come back. Guan Xing conveyed Sun Shao's order, Sun Shao built a summer palace at the foot of the snow mountain in Panyue Country as a summer resort, Guan Xing came back this time to take the queen mother, the queen and other people there, and the special pastoral city was handed over to the prime minister, and it was not so hot in the late autumn and early winter, and he came back to listen to the work report of the monarch for a year.

Yu is not surprised, since he served as the prime minister of the Yue Kingdom, Sun Shao has not been in the capital most of the time, either fighting outside or talking about business outside, and the affairs of the country have always been managed by the Prime Minister's Mansion and the Imperial Historian's Mansion. However, this time he had something to report to Sun Shao in person, so he handed over the affairs of the Prime Minister's Mansion to Zhang Wen, who had just returned from meritorious service and was promoted from Prime Minister Changshi to Deputy Prime Minister, and he took Zhao Yun, Li Yan and others who came from Shu and some representatives of the family who came from Wei to Panyue by boat.

Sun Shao was very surprised when he saw Yu Tuo, Yu Tuo is a powerful person, he is very satisfied with the current state, he is also happy to die, and he usually does not alarm him, but now there is a matter that the Prime Minister's Mansion cannot decide, and it is quite abnormal to ask him, the Prime Minister, to come and report in person.

"The king, these two things, the ministers dare not decide, and the king must be asked to consider." Yu said straight to the point: "First, the matter of Shu, Zhao Yun and Li Yan brought nearly a hundred young people to the military academy for internship. If it's one or two people, that's it, it's more than a hundred, and they are all the sons and daughters of the powerful people of Shu, these people are not those poor students with an unknown future, after they finish their studies, most of them will return to Shu. The border between Shu and me is close to each other, and there are many jungle areas, if we cultivate these people, will they become our opponents in the future? ”

Although Yu Xuan's tone was asking, his attitude was already very clear, he was against these people entering the military academy to study, and he was not only showing Sun Shao his attitude so simply, if Sun Shao was stubborn, then he would be forced, and it was even possible to pull his sleeve and debate like Lu Ji, anyway, this is not the first time in the history of Yue Kingdom, and it will not be the last.

"That's a real problem." Sun Shao stroked his chin, also a little worried. Liu Bei died, and Zhuge Liang wanted to make friends with Yue Guo, but he made such a request, which was really difficult to accept. However, the various colleges in Vietnam have always had no restrictions on accepting non-Vietnamese scholars, and if they refuse at this time, wouldn't it be a slap in the face? But if you want to accept it all, it is indeed a hidden danger, the reason why Yue can balance the situation of the Han with the strength of one country is because Yue has such the strength to restrain the other three countries not to act rashly, which also includes the role of the steam engine and the earth-shaking thunder that are actually not mature. Once one of the other three countries has the strength to compete with the Yue State, then this balance will be broken, and other unpredictable situations are likely to occur.

"I'll talk to Zhao Yun and Li Yan about this matter, and let's see what they think first."

"Please be cautious, my lord." Yu Xuan then said: "There are some people from the Wei Kingdom, and they want to do business with my Yue Kingdom. ”

"Doing business?" Sun Shao was a little inexplicable, and joked: "The Prime Minister's Mansion can't decide such a thing?" Yu Gong came all the way here to work, Yu Gong won't be tired, he wants to come and rest, right? ”

Yu Fu also smiled: "The minister is not tired, the busier he is, the more energetic he is, the king opens up the territory, and the minister really wants to come and see it, but it is not an excuse to come this time." The minister believes that with the mercy of the king, after the minister is served, the king will definitely leave a small courtyard for the minister here. ”

Sun Shao couldn't help but smile: "The prime minister is really good at speaking, if I don't give it, it won't be merciful enough." ”

Yu laughed and made two jokes with Sun Shao, and then put away his smile and said: "The Yang family and the Wang family in Taishan, the Cui family in Qinghe, and the Du family in China will all come to cooperate with Yueguo, and they will cooperate in steam engines and shipbuilding as soon as they open their mouths." ”

The smile on Sun Shao's face suddenly froze, and he was stunned for a moment before he forced a smile: "The tone is indeed not small." Judging from Duke Yu, does they have the meaning of King Wei behind them? Qingzhou's business, we have been cooperating with Sun Guan, they bypassed Sun Guan and came directly to me, which is full of weirdness. ”

"The minister was worried about this, and tried several times, but they didn't show their mouth, they just said that they had their own ideas and came at the call of Yue Guo, so the minister couldn't refuse, so he had to bring them to the king."

Sun Shao rolled his eyes and thought about it for a long time, but he still couldn't make a decision immediately, so he could only deal with it like the affairs of Shu Kingdom, and see them first.

"Prime Minister, since you are here, don't rush back, there are Zhang Wen and others here, presumably the Prime Minister's Mansion can still hold on, you take them to visit the nearby scenery, and by the way, also survey the terrain here, I estimate that Zhuge Liang will soon send someone to talk to you about the development of the Daoist problem, you check it on the spot, and you have a good idea, how to bargain with them when the time comes." Although Zhuge Liang is young, he is a practical person, and he is likely to send someone to inspect it on the spot before the negotiation, and you can't be blinded by him. It's not a problem to spend more money, but it's not appropriate to be looked down upon by someone who crosses the country. ”

Yu listened to it, and stroked his beard arrogantly: "Don't worry, the king, although the minister is over sixty years old, his body is still passable, and he will not lose the face of my Yue Kingdom." ”

Sun Shao laughed, he knew that if he didn't say it, Yu Tuo would not let Zhuge Liang take advantage, but he knew Zhuge Liang too well, for fear that Yu Tuo would be careless and be exploited by him, so it was a rare reminder to him that with Yu Tuo's temper, he would definitely go all out.

In the next half a month, the prime minister accompanied Zhao Yun and others to tour the vicinity for more than a month, Lu Xun, who was appointed by Sun Shao to preside over the war here, happened to be the first time to inspect the nearby terrain, so he accompanied him, with him, Zhao Yun, Li Yan and others were considered bosom friends, they expressed their opinions on the unique terrain here, and discussed the problems that need to be paid attention to when using soldiers, Zhao Yun is good at using horses, and is not as familiar with the mountainous terrain as Li Yan, who once conquered the Qiang land, Li Yan is a few years older than Lu Xun, and his surname is more conceited, and he does not think too highly of Lu Xun. thinks that he can be a general in Wu State, and now he is presiding over the war in Yue State, but because his wife is Sun Shao's third sister, not because he really has any proud achievements. It is not surprising that he has this opinion, because Lu Xun has not shown his demeanor in large-scale foreign wars except for his meritorious service on the battlefield of the conquest of Shanyue so far, and he is even inferior to Li Yan.

Lu Xun saw Li Yan's arrogance, but he remained silent, on the contrary, he became more and more respectful, and asked Zhao Yun and Li Yan for advice on everything, and he even brought them to the territory of Tianzhu. Feroz is not strong now, if you want to survive, you can only seek Sun Shao's help, Sun Shao said, I had an agreement with you Zhuluo Three Kingdoms, and I will not participate in the internal struggle of your Tianzhu people, so I can't help you. At that time, Feroz was in a hurry, and then Sun Shao said, however, Wu Guo has no agreement with them, so I asked General Lu to help you, if you have anything, you can contact him directly, you need materials and ordnance or something, and then contact me, of course, this is money. As a result, the Tianzhu border under the jurisdiction of Ferroz was also included in Lu Xun's war zone.

After returning from his travels, Sun Shao, who had been accompanying Daqiao, Guan Feng and others in the newly built summer palace, finally met them, and he held a banquet, the first formal banquet for Zhao Yun, Li Yan, and Yang Wei and others from Wei State. When Yang Jun got up to drink wine to Sun Shao, Sun Shao raised his wine glass very kindly and said with a smile: "Yang Jun, there is a person with the same name and surname as Yang Jun next to the prince of Wu Kingdom, but is your clan?" ”

Yang Wei is very strange, although he is a member of the Taishan Yang family, but his own reputation is not obvious, Sun Shao's enthusiasm for him exceeds his expectations. He was surprised and said, "Is there such a thing? The foreign minister really doesn't know, but as far as I know, no one from the Taishan Goat family has come to Wu. ”

"Haha, that's normal, the sheep family has a big business, a large population, wars broke out a few years ago, I thought he was a member of the Taishan goat family, but it seems that he was misunderstood."

"Father, could it be someone from the Nanyang Yang family?" A boy about six or seven years old reminded softly. He has a small round face, combed in a bun, clear eyebrows, bright eyes, and a rare bearing that does not match his age.

"Who is this gentleman?" Sun Shao asked curiously.

Before Yang Wei could answer, Sun Feng, who was shaking off the juice from his cheeks and eating beside him, replied first: "Father, I know, his name is Yang Hu, and he is the younger brother of Sister Yu, but he is smart. ”

Yanghu? Sun Shao was stunned for a moment, and involuntarily glanced at Yanghu a few more times, and a name popped out of his mind. Yanghu is a famous general in the late Three Kingdoms, and Lu Kang, who is still in infancy, is a famous figure, but he didn't expect to appear in front of him suddenly, and he looks like this. Sun Shao's eyes rolled, and then he thought about it, and a meaningful smile appeared on his face.

"Ling Lang has ever been enlightened?"

"Back to His Royal Highness, the kid was enlightened by his mother, and now he is studying with his aunt." Yanghu was a little timid by Sun Shao's eyes, and couldn't help but be a little restrained. Sun Shao patted his head, his heart is really nonsense, Taishan Goat's family is a family, they are all family heirlooms, this Yang's own level is good, his wife is the daughter of the great Confucian Cai Yong, and his wife and sister are the famous Cai Yan, and now they live in Yecheng, how can they not be enlightened. However, he immediately smiled again: "That's scripture, what about martial arts?" A good man, when he is both civil and military, just learning literature, is just a scholar. ”

Yang Wei was confused, Sun Shao seemed to be a little too concerned. The Yang family is not famous for martial arts, besides, the Shandong family does not look down on martial artists, most of the famous generals of the Han Dynasty are from Shanxi, and although the Han people are not as heavy on literature and light as martial arts in later generations, they look down on martial artists, especially pure martial arts are a long history, of course, both civil and military are good, but there is no deliberate specialization in martial arts.

"Never." Yanghu replied honestly. After he arrived in Temu City, because the prime minister had not agreed to cooperate, he was arranged by Yang Wei to follow his sister Yang Huiyu into the palace to meet the queen mother and queen, and Sun Feng hit it off at first sight, and soon became good friends.

"Yang Jun, Ling Lang has a very good face and a calm bearing, and he will definitely be a talent in the future." Sun Shao said honestly and unceremoniously: "I like it very much, and I can see that the dog also likes Ling Lang very much, I wonder if Yang Jun is willing to leave him in Temu City as a companion of the dog?" ”

"This ......" Yang Wei was just about to refuse, but Sun Shao put forward a condition that he did not refuse: "Whether it is shipbuilding or steam engine, it is not something that can be understood in a day or two, if you want to cooperate, you must stay in Funan College for at least a year and a half to understand the secret, otherwise, you will not know anything after all." ”

Yang Wei was overjoyed, how could there be any reason not to agree, and hurriedly nodded in agreement, making the eyes of several other family representatives of the same company red with envy. This is too outrageous, I talked with Yu for so long, and there was no progress at all, and when I arrived here, I was dragged out to travel, and I thought that this matter could not be solved nine times out of ten, but Sun Shao gave Yang Wei an unexpected opportunity because of a child.

This Sun Shao won't be the daughter of the Yang family, but he is talking about things through Yanghu, right? The people looked at each other and guessed in unison. During the time they came to Temu City, they all knew that Sun Shao was lustful, there were a large number of beauties from all over the world in the palace, although Yang Huiyu was only thirteen years old, but this was obviously not a problem, Sun Shao's wife Xiahou Hui was only ten years old when she married Sun Shao.
