In the next few days, Wang Xu had a comfortable time. Every day, in addition to practicing martial arts and routinely inspecting, he almost always accompanies Xu Shu to play around, and occasionally calls Zhang Yao and brings a few maids in the house. Although it was a cold winter, the excitement of the crowd was not diminished at all.

It's just that in addition to playing, Wang Xu also wants to take this opportunity to check the living conditions of people everywhere. After a few days of observation, it was generally not bad, but it was still too far from expectations. For now, there is still some distance from the north under the same circumstances. This slow pace of development is really unexpected, although I feel a little helpless, but there is no way, after all, the development still has to come step by step.

The South is much weaker than the North in terms of population, technology, and even economy, and if we want to start in the South, we must narrow the gap between the North and the South as much as possible. And if you want to enrich the south, you must use abundance and stability to attract a large number of people from the north to move south......

Just when Wang Xu stood quietly on a hill, silently looking at the smoky village in the distance, thinking about his future plans. Xu Shu walked over slowly, and glanced at him with some resentment: "Husband, didn't you say that you came out to relax?" Looking at you like that, my heart doesn't know where to fly! ”

"Huh?" Wang Xu, who came back to his senses, turned his head and glanced at Xu Shu, then smiled and slowly shook his head: "Hehe! I didn't pay attention and my mind wandered. ”

"Oops! What are you two doing standing there? Come here! Zhang Yao's voice suddenly came, and immediately attracted the attention of the two.

"I'll be right here." Wang Xu replied with a smile, turned around and took Xu Shu's hand and said, "Let's go, don't want to worry about those troubles, let's go!" ”

"Hmm!" Xu Shu nodded, and was about to speak, but there was a faint sound of horses' hooves and shouts in the distance.

"Drive! Drive! ...... driving"

Although the voice is very small and no one is visible, Wang Xu has been practicing martial arts for many years, how can he not notice it. Not only him, but also Xu Shu and Zhang Yao looked back one after another and looked in the direction where the voice came.

"It's Dian Wei! Could it be that something is wrong? After listening for a moment, Wang Xu immediately frowned. And with his words, Dian Wei and several guards also climbed the slope in front of him and appeared in view.

After a few breaths, he rushed to the front. After turning over and dismounting, he scratched his head honestly and said, "My lord, the envoy of the imperial court is here." ”

"An envoy of the court?" Wang Xu's eyes widened in surprise, and he couldn't imagine that he had been guessing left and right for a long time, but none of them were right. "Dian Wei, do you know what is going on?"

"I don't know, the official didn't say it!" Dian Wei thought about it, and finally shook his head.

"Hmm!" Nodding, Wang Xu couldn't help but smile bitterly and looked at Xu Shu and Zhang Yao on the side. "Two beauties, I have to go back first, you and those girls can play casually for a while! Stay safe! ”

"Don't worry, with my and Sister Zhang Yao's martial arts, what kind of mess can happen?" Hearing this, Xu Shu couldn't help but glance at Wang Xu.

Zhang Yao also smiled: "Don't worry, I will take care of my younger sisters." ”

"Forget it, don't take care of them, if you are a little injured, Gao Shun may not come to me desperately." Casually quipped, Wang Xu smiled at Zhang Yao, and regardless of the other party's shyness, he turned over and rode the horse that Dian Wei had prepared for him.

"Let's go, drive!" Because of the urgency of time, Wang Xu didn't say much, and just waved his whip and left......

It was so unexpected that the imperial court would come to envoys, and I couldn't figure out what would happen? If it is said that Wang Rui is making trouble, it is unlikely, the eunuch has already resolved the old grudge, with the financial resources and influence of the Wang family, then Wang Rui will not be so stupid, and he really wants to fight to the death with himself. Come to think of it, there must be other reasons, but what is it......

speculated all the way about the intentions of the imperial court, and before I knew it, I had rushed to the front of the Taishou Mansion. Taking a deep breath, Wang Xu turned over and dismounted, handed the horse whip to the guards who came up, and strode in under the escort of Dian Wei.

Just walked through the courtyard, and when he was still more than ten meters away from the conference hall, he suddenly heard the hearty laughter of Tian Feng and another person. Moreover, the man's voice was very familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was.

Just when Wang Xu stepped into the conference hall in confusion, he saw the middle-aged man sitting opposite Tian Feng, and he was stunned, it turned out that this person was Fu Xie, who pacified the yellow scarf together back then. Speaking of which, he was also one of the people in the army who had the best relationship with him back then. When we met at this moment, it was so unexpected that I couldn't stop laughing: "Hahaha! Fu Xie, Fu Nanrong! ”

Hearing this shout, Fu Xie also turned his head instantly, and when he saw Wang Xu, he hesitated for a long time before he suddenly rejoiced: "Haha!" Wang Xu! ”

After speaking, he looked at it more carefully, and praised it: "General Wang's demeanor is even more than in the past!" ”

"Where do I still have any demeanor like this, but Nanrong still looks so energetic, elegant and calm!" Wang Xu's heart was indeed a little excited at the moment, and the group of old people who were together back then finally saw one. Fortunately, Xiliang was completely in chaos, otherwise at this time in history, Fu Xie would have died in Hanyang Taishou.

But hearing Wang Xu's words, Fu Xie's expression suddenly fell, and he sighed with emotion: "Hey! Where is there any elegance and calmness! When the national disaster is at the head, but I can't achieve anything, I really feel very ashamed! ”

Knowing that Fu Xie was a great loyal minister, Wang Xu didn't have much to say, so he could only sigh and comfort: "Nanrong, don't blame yourself too much, this is a matter of the world, not one person can do it!" ”

Hearing this, Fu Xie shook his head: "Hey! If Xiliang can be pacified quickly, then the general will kill the eunuchs in one go, and clear the monarch's side. It's easy to calm down in this world! ”

But Tian Feng on the side suddenly shook his head and interjected: "Nanrong, this matter is not so easy, the eunuch is powerful, and he is very good at coaxing His Majesty, it is very difficult to destroy it. It is not easy to pacify Xiliang, Xiliang and the prefectures are all opposed, and with the current situation in the DPRK and China, it is very difficult to fight again. Unless ......"

"Unless what?" Fu Xie suddenly doubted.

"Unless the group of senior generals who pacified the Yellow Turbans can reunite." Wang Xu slowly took Tian Feng's words, glanced at Fu Xie, and then smiled and continued: "It's not that there are no capable people in the court today, but it's a pity that they can't make the best use of them, and the eunuchs won't let everyone take power, plus a large number of corrupt officials are helping to abuse them, so it has become an impossible thing to pacify Xiliang." You see Cao Mengde, after pacifying the Yellow Turban, he became the prime minister of Jinan, and he also had the intention to do something, and he dismissed eight-tenths of the officials in the entire Jinan country. But the result? Hasn't he been suppressed, although because of the Cao family's background, he has nothing to do, but wasn't he also transferred to the capital to be a powerless speaker? Although it was later moved to Dongjun Taishou, it was also conditional. With Mengde's great talent, he knows that he can't do anything, and now he resigns and hides at home, which is also a helpless move! ”

Hearing this, Fu Xie couldn't help but sigh and fell silent. After a while, he shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Yes! Even General Huangfu was demoted and idle, and the imperial court openly bought and sold official positions and titles, which is really hard to say! It's hard to say......"

Seeing that Fu Xie's feelings were very sluggish, Wang Xu and Tian Feng glanced at each other, and couldn't help but change the topic: "Okay!" Nan Rong, you and I don't have the ability to solve these things for the time being, so don't think about it, you come south this time, presumably you won't just come to me to chat and catch up! ”

"Ahh yes, you see, I almost forgot about business. Smiling awkwardly, Fu Xie stood up at this time, and took out a scroll from his arms with a stern face: "Ask for the thief Zhonglang General, Lingling Taishou Wang Xu will take the edict!" ”

Hearing this, Wang Xu didn't dare to slack off, and when he stood up with Tian Feng, he slowly knelt on the ground: "The last general Wang Xu took the edict!" ”

"On the day of October in the fourth year of Zhongping, Fengtian carried it, and the emperor pardoned and said: Ask for the thief Zhonglang General, Lingling Taishou Wang Xu begged for the yellow turban in front of him, and the Lingling rebellion in Houping was meritorious. Although there are also mistakes, but remember that you are young and frivolous, your family has served the country for generations, and you have served prison and arrived, and you are pardoned to show the emperor's grace. And according to the meritorious service, he was crowned as the general of the court, restored to the title of marquis in the Guannei, and ate 300 households, which were supplied by the county where he was located! Another: The edict ordered the new general Wang Xu to send troops to Guiyang, quell the rebellion, sit in Jingnan, and supervise the military affairs of the four counties, there must be no mistakes! ”

As Fu Xie finished reading this short holy decree, Wang Xu's heart was really happy, but his face was silently stretched out to take the holy decree: "The last general will thank you!" ”

Seeing that Wang Xu solemnly put the holy decree in his arms, Fu Xie smiled and slowly handed over the seal of General Kou: "Hehe! Congratulations to General Wang on his ascension! ”

"Nanrong, you love to tease me like this." Smiled and took the seal, Wang Xu carefully put it away, and then stood up: "Nanrong, please take a seat!" ”

"Huh! Good! After sitting down again, Fu Xie smiled and said, "Your Excellency can win this honor at a young age, which is really admirable!" ”

"Nanrong, don't talk about this, if you keep talking, I'll blush." Wang Xu suddenly laughed.

"Huh! You're different, and all the ministers take it for granted that you deserve this reward. If it weren't for that incident back then, he would have been promoted to general a long time ago! It's a shame that a talent like yours is buried. ”

"Huh! Nanrong praised it. In fact, Nanrong's talent should be in this position before me. Although the position of the councillor is high, it is a pity that it is difficult to make a difference! ”

Hearing this, Fu Xie also sighed, shook his head and said: "No way, last year, when Zhao Zhong was the general of the chariot cavalry, he talked about the merits of the Yellow Turban, but I have always looked down on the eunuchs, and besides, he wanted me to show favor to him, so I refused!" Even now he holds a grudge and wants to grab me! ”

Seeing that Fu Xie was getting more and more depressed, Wang Xu didn't want to talk about it anymore, so he smiled and said, "Okay! Nanrong, stop talking about these unhappy things. You've come all the way from Luoyang, so I think it's better to freshen up! Later, I will set up a special banquet for you to catch the wind and wash the dust. ”

"Huh! You're out there, don't bother! Fu Xie immediately shook his head.

Wang Xu couldn't help but smile slightly: "What's the trouble, you and I haven't seen each other for a few years, shouldn't we have a good drink?" Besides, there are several outstanding people in this Lingling, who want to get acquainted with you! Otherwise, would Your Excellency look down on them? ”

As soon as these words came out, Fu Xie suddenly said urgently: "Where is this!" As he spoke, he couldn't help but look at Tian Feng with a smile and said: "The dragon and the crouching tiger are hidden under the general's account, and even Yuan Hao is here, how can I look down on it." ”

"Huh! In that case, why do you say so much? With that, Wang Xu immediately turned his head to look outside the door of the conference hall and called loudly: "Dian Wei, you take Master Fu to the VIP courtyard in the backyard." ”

"No!" Dian Wei's rough voice immediately sounded.

Wang Xu turned around and said: "Nanrong, then you can go with Dian Wei first, there will be someone there, I will arrange a dinner!" ”

"Okay!" Seeing this, Fu Xie finally smiled and nodded.
