The concubines who were sent to Chang'an at the beginning had been escorted by Anxi's secret agents and returned to Anxi safely. After a few years of Chang'an, they didn't wait for their man to return to Chang'an, but they wasted a few years.

They are all the women of the original Guanzhong man Ma Lan, each of them was not bought, but they all had some affection with the original prodigal son Ma Lan, but for Ma Lan, these women cannot be completely abandoned, after all, he has had some kind of relationship with each of them since he came back from Sa Mojian, and it is naturally not his style to turn his face and be ruthless.

But that's all, this era is a good era for men, but not for women.

Gao Qianqian rearranged the room, and Ma Lan accompanied the two to eat something, and then left the backyard. The big wedding is a major event in life, and the bride is not allowed to go out for these three days. When he arrived in the front yard and saw the seventh uncle, the old man was extremely happy that Ma Lan came out so late, and told Ma Lan to continue to work hard, and he must be happy to help the wind and Ma's good life.

The mood of the old man, Ma Lan can naturally understand, with his current age, under normal circumstances, the heirs are about to become children, and there are almost no people who have never married at this age, unless the family is too poor and no one is willing to marry. The old man is almost eighty years old, and he is already a long man in this era, although he looks healthy, but no one can guarantee how long he will be tough, and if he does not see him marry his wife, he will really die.

The matter of the cave house, naturally, can not be told to outsiders, to the instructions of the seventh uncle. Ma Lu is naturally full of promises. After leaving the Grange. He rode his horse to inspect the school's construction site. Of course his purpose. I want to give the two wives some time, so that the two daughters can try to get along with each other and get used to it, one of them is the daughter of the prime minister, and the other is the daughter of the general. In the past, one was in the west of the moraine and the other was in Chang'an, so it was easy to say. Now that they are all here, they will have to get along with each other every day in the future, and it will always take a run-in time.

Of course, the construction of the school is also a big deal.

The general personally came to the construction site, and the Han people who worked were naturally extremely excited, and with his identity, naturally no one dared to make jokes about him, and there were congratulations everywhere. Ma Lan was in a very good mood, so that the already high salary was increased by 30%. The steward in charge of the place frowned, but the Hermes-Epitek cheered loudly.

Ma Lan also saw the reluctance of the person in charge. But he just smiled and didn't say much. The money comes from the Ma family's workshop, and the person in charge is responsible for Gao Qianqian, so he naturally doesn't want to spend too much, otherwise he will lose his reputation, and there is nothing wrong with him doing this. However, this is a day of great joy, first to determine the relationship with Chang'an, and to marry two beautiful girls, but also double happiness, Hermes-Epitek is the foundation of the west, and it is natural to be happy.

Tell the person in charge about this, he will tell Gao Qianqian, and the person in charge is relieved. This expenditure will not be small, and now it has increased by 30%, but for Ma Luan, he doesn't care about this little money. The wealth left behind by the Persian Temple has all been brought out, and it is being transported to Anxi from all over the country one after another, which is more than 30 million yuan, which is equivalent to a year's income of the Tang Dynasty. With such a large income, spending this little money is nothing, not to mention that it is the people of the Han family who get the money, and the meat is rotten in the pot, and there is no loss.

If you want to attract more Han people to come voluntarily, then you must first let the Han people in the west live well, otherwise there will be no attraction.

The structure of the Persian temple is absolutely centralized, the great shaman occupies a lot of resources, has absolute power, and the forces of the Persian temple in various places are not connected to each other, and they only listen to the orders of the great shaman alone. Such absolute centralization ensured the great shaman's absolute control over the Persian temple, but after the death of the great shaman, the Persian temple immediately became a group of dragons, and the forces of the Persian temple everywhere became lambs to be slaughtered. The process of collecting these riches was not peaceful, and there were bloody conflicts, but there were no shaman-level masters in various places, so it was always the Anxi agents who won.

In fact, such drawbacks are also a wake-up call for Ma Luan. Just as he is now in the west of the moraine, the power is monopolized, and everyone is the only one who looks to him, and his position in the west is actually very similar to the position of the great shaman in the huge system of the Persian temple. Therefore, Ma Ling knows very well that the system of Qixi is extremely fragile, and if something happens to him, the situation in Qixi will not be able to be controlled, and there is no one who can stabilize the situation for the time being. Those arrogant soldiers and fierce generals looked at each other one by one, but they were not convinced by each other.

This situation is conducive to his control of the entire moraine, but it is not conducive to the long-term development of the moraine, these horses are very clear, and they are also vigilant in their hearts, but it is not possible to solve it overnight for the time being. Whether it is the formulation of rules, the establishment of emergency mechanisms, or the formation of the official system, of course, there are ready-made models in previous lives that can be followed, and they can be used completely, but everything takes time, and it can only be done slowly. If you change too quickly, you're likely to fall aback.

Fortunately, he is not short of time now, at least for now, after all, he is only in his thirties.

The easiest to accept change is always the young people, so the changes he wants to implement will start in these two schools first, of course, this is a later story. The loss of the old Feng Changqing is a big loss for Qixi, but in a way, it is conducive to him to let go of his hands and feet to promote change. Veterans like Feng Changqing are the foundation of stability in the western part of the country, but they can also become an obstacle to change.

When I got back to the Grange, it was evening again. In fact, it was not very late, the days were short in winter, and he had only been out for two or three hours. When they walked into the backyard, Gao Qianqian and Yang Youniang were talking and laughing in a low voice, and when they saw Ma Ling coming back, they all got up and saluted obediently. Looking at this, the two got along well on this day, and Ma Lan naturally felt a lot more relaxed.

Naturally, there will be no more ridiculous things to sleep with this night, and it will be the same for the next few days, Ma Lan wants to stay with whichever room, he has to go to which room, as for the oversized cave room, it was abandoned by the two of them and became Ma Lan's study.

Being able to marry these two wives, Ma Lan is naturally extremely satisfied, although there is no honeymoon in this era, but he still spends more time with the two. Except for occasionally going to the construction site to see, most of the time I didn't leave Majia Grange, staying in the study to write a simple textbook for the school, but I still spent most of my time with the two.

There will be news from Chang'an every two days, in general, this winter will be relatively calm, the materials that were originally hoarded in Chang'an to deal with him are slowly being shipped to Fanyang and Hedong, but Li Siye and Guo Ziyi are not moving, and they will not go to clear Li Jing this winter. The Anxi secret agent who originally went to Liaodong to buy Haidongqing has set up a base in Xincheng since he encountered Li Jing's self-reliance, and specially transmitted the news of Liaodong to Chang'an, an inconspicuous piece of information that attracted Ma Lan's attention.

Hye-chao, a Silla monk who was well-known in Chang'an and the author of "The Legend of the Five Heavenly Pillars", passed through Xincheng and went to Silla.

The news first spread to Chang'an, and then Mi Xue came over, although it was relying on Haidongqing, the lag was still very large, at this time, Huichao should have entered the territory of Silla.

Speaking of which, this is also an old man, a monk with great wisdom and perseverance, Hui Chao went west to seek the law in the Kaiyuan period, but after returning is to live in Chang'an for a long time, when the ranger Chang'an, and this monk has met a few times, when Hui Chao was less than forty years old, and now he should be in his early fifties.

This can be regarded as an old man, of course, this is from the perspective of the original Guanzhong man Ma Lan, and it is really very common for rangers and famous monks to intersect. The memory of the man in Guanzhong is still very real, so he naturally feels like an old man when he thinks of this monk.

This monk is extremely upright, and he has some grievances with the Fusang monk in Chang'an, and I heard that he has suffered some losses. But this is all what happened after Ma Lan came to Anxi, he left Chang'an very young, and his friendship with Huichao was not very deep, when he met with this Silla monk, he went with the two eldest brothers of Nanba Lei Wanchun, and Huichao may not pay attention to him.

After all, Hui Chao is a native of Silla, and he chose to return to Silla at this time, naturally not to return to his roots for the sake of leaves. However, he is just a monk, even though he has a great reputation in Silla and Datang, it is not easy to say what role he can play. Li Jing imitates him everywhere, and Ma Ling also knows that that guy is not a good man and a woman, maybe the monk will suffer.

Of course, for Ma Lan, if any monk comes over to persuade him to put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha now, it will definitely be unlucky, even if the old man is only afraid.

This is just a trivial matter, and this little friendship with Huichao will not make Ma Lan worry about his life and death. If you know, you just know, and you remember this thing in your heart, and that's it. As for Li Jing's fate, it probably won't change because of Hui Chao's return to Silla, Li Jing chose to stand on his own, but he didn't have real strength, and he couldn't get his own support, although he defeated Silla, the end was already doomed. And next spring is the time to pick peaches, Li Jing's efforts are naturally just to make wedding dresses for people.

Silla has no possibility of recovering the country, because it is Zhang Xun who decides everything in Chang'an now, Zhang Xun is by no means a person who likes to be famous, and Zhang Xun is absolutely unwilling to do such stupid things as saving and destroying the country and succeeding the heir. Even Zhang Xun in the south and north of the desert is going to implement the county system, and Silla has three thousand miles of rivers and mountains, and if it is swallowed by Zhang Xun, where is there still a reason to spit it out.

This kind of weather is no longer suitable for crossing the green mountain, so this winter is destined to be spent in Qiuzi. For Ma Lan, this is a rare leisure time for more than five years, and it also made him begin to settle down, carefully planning the future of himself and Datang.

But peaceful days are short-lived after all. For Ma Luan, this is a fateful thing.
