Suizhou and Xiazhou belong to the same Xia Sui Town, but because of its three towns, and guard the north-south trade route, so it has been controlled by the Shence Army, Meng Bochang several times wanted to take it into the pocket were defeated by the guard Wen Lan, Wenlan is the nephew of the Shence Army General Wen Shimao, with a strategic mind, very good at defending the city, so that a pair of bronze iron handle sledgehammers, bravely crown the three armies,

After Yang Hao said goodbye to Li Yan in Chang'an, he went north along the trade road with Xiaoyu, all the way safe, and arrived outside the city of Suizhou, but saw that the road was full of checkpoints, and the officers and soldiers quickly interrogated passers-by, and inquired and learned that the Suizhou soldiers and horses made Wenlan search for a scholar named Wu Cao, this Wu Cao is also the number one person in Suizhou, he entered the county school at the age of seven, entered the county school at the age of twelve, poetry, calligraphy and painting are unparalleled for a while, and the poetry and literature of the world Bai Juyi read his poems and texts are also praised as the top grade,

Although full of talent but repeatedly failed to take the exam, he was born in a poor family, and he was proud of his talent and refused to stammer, after the age of twenty, he mixed in the tavern hook column, by filling in the lyrics and composing music to mix food, because he is proficient in music and rhythm, and good, the songs he composed are widely sung, and he is also worry-free for a while, Suizhou new prostitute Thirteen Niang, color and art are unique, invite Wu Cao to compose music and lyrics for her,

Wu Cao was fascinated by the talent of Thirteen Niang, and tailored a ninety-nine-eighty-one song for him, singing a red one, famous in Guannei, Gyeonggi Prefectures and Counties, Thirteen Niang was grateful for his feelings, and added meaning to it, Wu Cao would be wrong, thinking that Thirteen Niang was devoted to him, and when he met people, he said that Thirteen Niang was his confidant, and Thirteen Niang heard the words and ridiculed him face-to-face: "Who are you, what am I, you want to get me, just like the toad wants to eat swan meat." ”

Wu Cao lost face in front of the people, ashamed, that night he sleeved a short knife to go to the end of the life of Thirteen Niang, Thirteen Niang was blocked in the house by him and called every day should not be, called the ground is not spiritual, so he used the trick, with tears in his eyes, holding his thighs and begging, Wu Cao hardened his heart and said: "If you are willing to go with me, everything will be over, if you are unwilling, I will go to Huangquan with you and force you to be a mandarin duck." ”

Thirteen Niang pretended to agree, and said that she wanted to clean up the soft, sell the industry, and then go to the south with him to buy land and land, and live a free life, although Wu Cao suspected fraud, but he was reluctant to Thirteen Niang's family property was cheap to others, so he agreed, and Thirteen Niang and his romance once strengthened his heart, and when Wu Cao was a little relaxed, Thirteen Niang fled, Wu Cao found out that there was fraud, and hid overnight.

Suizhou soldiers and horses make Wen Lan is a frequent visitor to the bed of Thirteen Niang, seeing Thirteen Niang coming to vote in a hurry, he was immediately furious, and urgently ordered the blockade of the four gates and all roads out of the city, set up a card to capture Wu Cao, tossed for three or five days in a row, arrested dozens of merchants, fined hundreds of trucks of goods, but even Wu Cao's shadow was not found,

Yang Hao sighed when he heard this: "Asking what the love in the world is, it is a matter of life and death, but it is a pity that Lang has no intention of having a concubine." ”

Xiao Yu said disapprerovingly: "There are top cards mixed in the fireworks field, and it stands to reason that there are countless people who have read the world, and the world is warm and cold, why does she refuse to go with that scholar, and it is not a good thing to think that Wu Cao." ”

Zhang Bozhong said: "Madame is really insightful, this Wu Cao is said to be cowardly, ruthless, there is a singer in the city who is good with him, often take the body for him to squander, and then there are giant businessmen to redeem for the singer, Wu Cao is afraid that he will not have a job, and he has repeatedly made a stumbling block from it, and then saw that the singer has made up his mind, so he said, 'If you think of the affection of these years, leave me a thought,' the singer saw that he was willing to let go, so he said in a casual manner, "You can take whatever you want, as long as you can take it, I will give it to you," you guess what this Wu Cao took from her, he actually bit off the singer's **. ”

Xiao Yu hated: "This kind of person really deserves a thousand cuts, why didn't the rich merchant pursue him." ”

Zhang Bozhong sighed: "The rich businessman pursued him, and the boss of the Qinglou refused to let him go, but the government did not dare to sentence him because of public opinion." Speaking of this, Zhang Bozhong suddenly fell silent and fell into deep thought, Xiao Yu hurriedly urged: "Mr. Zhang, why didn't the government dare to sentence him." Zhang Bozhong raised his head and replied: "Because he is willing to give, he often goes to help the poor people in the city when he has spare money, and he is bold and careful, and often stands up for the people to resist the officials, so he is deeply popular with the people. ”

When Xiao Yu heard this, he tilted his head and muttered, "It seems that this person is not all a bad person. ”

Yang Hao patted her: "You go back to the inn to rest first, we have a lot of eyes, it seems that we have to find a way to pass." ”

After taking away the small fish, Yang Hao asked Zhang Bozhong: "Did Mr. think of something?" ”

Zhang Bozhong said: "The eyes of the adults are like electricity, and they can see through the minds of their subordinates at a glance, Suizhou is connected to the three towns of Hedong, Dunfang, and Hezhong, which is the gateway to and from Guanzhong, and the terrain is extremely critical, and the guard general Wenlan is the confidant of Qiu Shiliang, Zhang Yueming of Dunfang, and Liang Shouqian in Hezhong are also Qiu Shiliang's cronies. ”

Yang Hao muttered: "What Mr. is talking about is right, but this place belongs to Xia Sui, and the north is Linzhou, if I come forward, I am afraid that it will cause many misunderstandings, and I have to ask Meng Dashuai to light this fire." ”

On the one hand, Yang Hao asked Li Wei to call the manager of the intelligence room in Suizhou, and on the other hand, he asked Zhang Bozhong to plan how to light this fire, Zhang Bozhong said: "Suizhou does not need Fengzhou, and my subordinates may not be able to meddle in this matter." Yang Hao knew that he was wary of Guan Suo, so he said: "This matter is very important, don't shirk it, I will explain it clearly over there." Zhang Bozhong readily agreed,

Meng Bochang returned to Xiazhou half a month ago, and when he saw Yang Hao coming alone, he sneered: "Is Yang Peijian the acting chief inspector inspecting my Xiazhou?" ”

Yang Hao said: "You don't have to mock me, I didn't see you Meng Dashuai at the Suzhou faceless meeting, don't you live up to the grace of His Royal Highness King Guang." ”

Meng Bochang snorted coldly and said, "I'm not very familiar with him. ”

Wang Yuner wore a tight-fitting floral leather jacket, holding a three-month-old baby in the sun in the garden, this is the third time Yang Hao saw her, the three meetings were different, the first time in Meishan, Wang Yuner asked for her father's life, crawling in the mud with tears in her eyes, her face was covered with mud, and Yang Hao saw a bold, filial and stubborn girl at that time,

The second time was when Meng Bochang invited the full moon wine, when she was a new mother, her face was full of glory, and she was white and fat, and at this moment, she was completely a beautiful young woman soaked in a honey jar.

Meng Bochang snorted: "Hugh's eyes are hot, if you have the ability, I will take a look at it." Yang Hao said: "Don't be complacent, my children will definitely be more than you in the future." ”

Wang Yun'er looked at Yang Hao, first waved hello, then handed the baby to the nanny, walked over, pursed her lips and smiled lightly, and said: "Can't you two talk quietly, I can hear it over there, the two powerful border commanders meet together, why do they always quarrel like children." ”

Wang Yun'er is petite, her eyes are smart, and her red cherry mouth is very attractive, looking at her, Yang Hao's heart actually jumped, and he felt ashamed in his heart.

Meng Bochang said: "You don't care about our affairs, it's cold, let's go back to the house." ”

Wang Yun'er said: "Then you talk first, and I'll cook two dishes for you." ”

Meng Bochang snorted and let go of her hand,

When he came to Meng Bochang's study, Yang Hao explained the plan to disrupt Suizhou to contain the Shence Army, and then asked Meng Bochang: "How many troops are there in the Wenlan Department." "How many garrisons there are in Suizhou, Yang Hao actually knows very well in his heart, he just doesn't want to stimulate Meng Bochang when he asks this, after all, Suizhou is still his jurisdiction in name, but Meng Bochang doesn't appreciate his feelings, and said coldly: "Don't you know better than me how many troops there are in Suizhou, you are a second-grade sword, I am just a third-grade horizontal sword, what do you want to do, why do you want to come to see me, with your ability, can't you take a small Suizhou." ”

Yang Hao was speechless for a long time by his choking, and after pouring two sips of hot tea, he said: "I won't hide it from you, I was targeted by the Uighurs, and in order to protect myself, I had to occupy more territory to expand my strength. ”

Yang Hao briefly recounted the contents of the Uighur Imperial Council that he had received from Lao Kezi,

Meng Bochang listened very carefully, and after listening to it, he pondered for a long time before asking, "Why don't you tell the chief manager about this matter." ”

Yang Hao didn't answer directly, but started with one thing: "After the faceless meeting in Suzhou, he read a secret decree to the Seven Great Sabers: Seven of us, one is the privy council, the chief manager, one is in charge of personnel, one is in charge of finance, and the other four are in charge of eastern, western, southern, and northern affairs. If not, he has to call me back for redrafting, and he himself is not allowed to make his own decisions. ”

Speaking of this, Yang Hao smiled bitterly: "But I am a sword stationed abroad from Beijing, but the official documents submitted by various places are directly sent to the capital, and they do not really go through my hands, such a dictatorial person, if I tell him the truth, Fengzhou will not believe Yang Yi from now on." ”

Meng Bochang heard the words and got up, pulled out his knife and slashed at Yang Hao, Yang Hao was startled, hurriedly hid outside, and asked, "Why are you here?" Meng Bochang snorted angrily: "If you say rebellious words, why don't you kill you." Yang Hao knew that he was speechless, and he also knew that he couldn't distinguish it from him for a while, so he hurriedly walked out, and walked too quickly, knocking down Wang Yun'er who was sending tea inside, Wang Yun'er heard the two arguing outside, and specially rushed to persuade her, after falling to the ground, she had a plan, covering the back of her head and making a painful appearance,

Meng Bochang looked distressed, threw the knife, pushed Yang Hao away, helped Wang Yun'er up, and asked with concern, "Are you hurt?" Wang Yun'er rubbed her head and complained: "It's like a brother, but you quarrel over such a trivial matter, aren't you afraid of making people laugh." ”

Meng Bochang said: "It's not a trivial matter to say rebellious words. ”

Wang Yun'er sneered: "Have you done less rebellious things, you took my father's coal mine back then was also rebellious, since you can't say why you did it, there are only two of you in this house, and no outsiders have heard it, what are you afraid of." ”

"You,." Meng Bochang was speechless for a while, waved his hand irritably, and said, "Don't scream about our business, cook your meal." ”

Wang Yun'er pursed her lips and smiled, took Meng Bochang's arm, and said, "The wine and food have been prepared, please sit down with the two marshals." In order to avoid the two fighting at the wine table, Wang Yuner held the baby and accompanied her.

Meng Bochang and Yang Hao both sat like wood carving clay sculptures, Wang Yun'er kept teasing Gu'er, the baby was amused by her giggles, babbling, Meng Bochang finally said to her: "Go ahead, we still have something to talk about." Wang Yun'er saw that the two had reconciled, so she got up and went by herself.

Meng Bochang drank a glass of wine and said in a sullen voice: "Now that the strong enemy has not been eliminated, he can still tolerate your independent side, in the future, he will not let you have good fruits to eat, after you are meritorious, do you really want to follow the example of the three towns of Hebei and be a sinner in the imperial court." ”

Yang Hao said angrily: "Is it really a sin to divide the place, you and I are now dividing one side, Fengzhou and Xiazhou are worse than them, the outside can resist strong enemies, the inside can calm the people, the officials are clean and honest, and there is plenty of food and clothing, and the wealth and wealth of Jiangnan are often uninhabited for hundreds of miles, corrupt officials and corrupt officials are skillful and robbing, the rich and gentry are poor and luxurious, bandits are rampant, and the people are in dire straits. ”

Meng Bochang said: "That's all I say, it's your business whether you listen or not." ”

Yang Hao drank a glass of wine sullenly and said, "If you don't send troops over there in Suizhou, I will send troops." ”

Meng Bochang put the cup on the table: "Suizhou is mine, why let you interfere." ”
