Later that day, Zhang Lang returned to the General's Mansion and summoned Huang Yueying and Cai Yong. The two saluted, and Zhang Lang asked Cai Yong: "Is there any news from the envoy to the Dayue clan?" Cai Yong clenched his fists and said, "There is no news yet." Zhang Lang frowned, "How is it possible?" It's been a few months, why hasn't there been any news at all? ”

At this moment, Yang Kun rushed in with a roll of bamboo slips in his hand and reported: "General, the Western Regions is urgent." And then he presented it.

Zhang Lang took the bamboo slip, shook it open, looked at it, and a smile appeared on his face, "The Queen of the Dayue Clan finally knows the ...... of current affairs" raised her head and said: "She accepted our request to ensure the safety of business travel, and expressed the hope that she could maintain friendly relations with the Han Empire forever." ”

Huang Yueying pondered: "In this case, there is no need to send troops to the Western Regions!" ”

Zhang Lang nodded sympathetically, "It is naturally better to solve the problem without starting a war, after all, such an expedition is really time-consuming and laborious!" ”

Huang Yueying nodded sympathetically, and then thought: "However, we can't take the situation in the Western Regions lightly, and we should take precautions. ”

Zhang Lang smiled and asked, "What do you think of Yueying?" ”

Huang Yueying saw Zhang Lang looking at herself with a smile, and she didn't feel that her face was red, and she quickly lowered her head, "Well, I think two fortresses should be built, one in the Green Ridge and one in the southern foot of the sky, and use these two places and the Western Regions Protectorate as a support to firmly control the situation in the Western Regions." "Let me explain here that there was originally only one Western Regions Changshi Mansion in the Western Regions, but Zhang Lang upgraded the Changshi Mansion to the capital protectorate in view of the importance of the Western Regions.

Huang Yueying continued: "The armies of the Western Regions should be regularly assembled for joint training, so that we can control the armies of the Western Regions, and in addition, the Western Regions should be firmly tied to the westbound trade routes. Only when their interests are fully integrated with ours can they be guaranteed that they will not have different intentions. ”

Zhang Lang nodded thoughtfully and said, "Yueying said well! I don't think it should be done at once. Glancing at Huang Yueying, "Immediately send an order to Pang De Zhang Jian and implement it accordingly." Huang Yueying clenched her fists and promised.

Zhang Lang thought for a while, "Since the Da Yue Clan has expressed its attitude of cooperation, I think we can immediately form a caravan and send it out." Regulate the chambers of commerce, let them voluntarily organize meetings, and order the Ministry of State to form several caravans. Ordered Long Taojun to select two hundred elite soldiers to form an escort team. Huang Yueying clenched her fists and promised.

In the evening of the same day, just as Zhang Lang was flipping through the report in the study, Huang Yueying came in. Dressed in dark men's clothes, his hair is combed, although it is less gorgeous, but it is more capable. Huang Yueying saw that Zhang Lang was reading the report intently, and didn't dare to disturb him, so she stood aside and waited quietly.

A moment later, Zhang Lang gave instructions on the report, then closed it and put it aside. Seeing that Huang Yueying had come at some point, she asked with a smile, "When did you come?" I don't know? Huang Yueying pursed her lips and smiled, "I just came, and I saw that my eldest brother was reviewing the report, so I didn't dare to disturb." ”

Zhang Lang smiled, "Is there something wrong?" ”

Huang Yueying immediately called the bamboo slip in her hand to bring it up.

Zhang Lang took the bamboo slip and shook it open, looked at it, and asked with some surprise: "So many?" I didn't think many would answer the call! ”

Huang Yueying smiled: "Businessmen are profit-oriented, as long as there are enough benefits, they will never be afraid of difficulties and risks!" ”

Zhang Lang nodded, "That's why I value them." Looking at the names of the major merchants on the bamboo slips, he showed a look of thought, "There are so many houses, the goods must be streamlined, otherwise the team will be too large!" Huang Yueying said sympathetically: "It really should be streamlined!" Otherwise, I'm afraid there will be a lot of trouble along the way! Two hundred guards are too much to keep them safe! Big brother, I have a building yì ......"

Zhang Lang raised his head and smiled, "Say it." ”

Huang Yueying couldn't help but hang her head and brush her sideburns hair, "I think we should send some observers and liaison officers to the various businessmen to act in unison, so as not to cause problems." ”

Zhang Lang nodded and said, "This is good, you can choose someone immediately." After a pause, "As for streamlining the goods, tell the major merchants what I mean, and each of them is limited to thirty horses, and as for what goods to carry, they are up to them." Huang Yueying responded.

Zhang Lang pondered: "You must prepare within three days, and you will set off after three days." ”

Huang Yueying said: "I'll do it immediately." Zhang Lang wanted to ask him to stay, but before she could speak, she had already left the study. Zhang Lang smiled and shook his head.

After dealing with the matter at hand, Zhang Lang left the study, returned to the courtyard at the back, and went to Yan Yuyao's room first, and saw that she had a guest there, a family member of a very civil servant. Zhang Lang sat down inside for a while and left. wandering aimlessly in the backyard, he unknowingly came to the yard of Diao Chan. Suddenly I had a bad thought in my heart. Sneaking in, he bypassed the maid at the door, came to the back, saw that there was no one left or right, carefully let go of a window, and went inside.

As soon as he came to the room, the fragrance of roses came to his face, and Zhang Lang couldn't help but take a deep breath and became even more excited. He glanced around and found the wooden ladder and tiptoed over. I walked down the wooden ladder to the second floor, and I saw a faint gauze tent not far away. Zhang Lang was inexplicably excited in his heart, came to the bed, opened the gauze tent, and saw Diao Chan lying on his side on the bed, facing inside, the charming curved mountains and ups and downs were extremely attractive, and a cloud of green silk fell on the pillow.

Zhang Lang hurriedly took off his clothes and pants, opened the quilt, and got in. Leaning sideways next to Diao Chan, gently stroking her jade body.

Diao Chan woke up and was taken aback by the feeling of a large hand stroking back and forth on his sensitive parts. quickly turned his head, but saw that it was Zhang Lang. She smiled charmingly, and her delicate body was wrapped around like an octopus. Zhang Lang was so excited that he pressed her under him as soon as he turned over......

The next morning, when the sun was three poles, Zhang Lang woke up. Last night, I trembled with Diao Chan until I was careful. glanced at the Yiren in his arms, smiled slightly, and said in his stomach: If you want to talk about charm, I'm afraid there is no one who can compare with Diao Chan!

Three days later, the merchants in Luoyang were ready, and the businessmen of the Ministry of State were also ready. Huang Yueying sent an order for them to gather outside the West City. The caravans immediately set off and came to wait outside the gate of the West City, and soon after, two hundred cavalry guards surrounded Huang Yueying.
