In June, in order to cooperate with the Northern Expedition of Wang Shi, the Ming court announced that the world would be exempted from taxes in Henan, Shaanxi, Shanxi and Shandong for three years. These places were all owned by the Qing court, which was trying to win the support of the people of the Northland.

After the victory of the Hetao, the Ming Dynasty made another big change in the weather, which made the Manchu court have an irresistible idea. In recent years, the northerners have fled south more and more violently, and knives can kill people, but they can't stop people's hearts.

At the end of June, Xia Yunyi, the imperial historian of the Ming Dynasty, arrived in Chengdu.

Zhai Zhe ordered Liu Suifeng to be responsible for the envoy to Sichuan, but he didn't expect Liu Suifeng to recommend Xia Yunyi. Xia Yunyi was born in several societies and has a stubborn personality, and he scolded Zhai Zhe a lot behind his back. Fortunately, the regent of the Ming Dynasty did not take offense with his words.

Some time ago, Zhai Zhe personally went to Chen Zilong's mansion and his party, so that many scholars of the restoration society saw some hope again. Their hope is in Chen Zilong, or in Zhai Tian Fitness.

Xia Yunyi came to Chengdu Mansion, and Wu Sanrong received him, saying that the war on the front line was urgent, and Wu Sangui was not in Chengdu but in Hanzhong.

Xia Yunyi didn't say a word, didn't spend the night in Chengdu Mansion, and went straight to Hanzhong. Zhang Huan, the governor of Sichuan, wanted to come to see him, but he also pounced. Xia Yunyi's eyes are above the top, Zhang Huan is not famous in Shilin, he really didn't take Zhang Huan in his eyes.

Wu Sanrong was a little panicked, and persuaded all the way: "The Shu road is difficult and dangerous, and it is too dangerous to walk at night, so I will send the adults to Hanzhong tomorrow." ”

Xia Yunyi's eyes widened, and he said, "You also know that the war is tense, and I came to Sichuan to come for the war." ”

Wu Sanrong said: "That's not a bad year. Now that the king of Zhenxi is confronting the Henan Qingyu in Hanzhong, the big war will not be born in these two days. ”

Xia Yunyi pointed at Wu Sanrong's nose and scolded: "It is a villain like you who is by the side of the King of Zhenxi that has caused so many incidents. The Huguang army and the Henan army fought for half a year, and the governor of Shaanxi, Zuo Ruo, lost even Xi'an in order to aid Mongolia, what did the king of Zhenxi do in Hanzhong, sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight? Do you want to see the sandpiper and the mussel compete for the benefit of the fisherman?

Donglin scribes have a very good ability to scold people, and this sentence is all heart-wrenching, which scolds Wu Sanrong to sweat profusely. When the imperial court was weak, they could not take the imperial court seriously, but now the Nanjing imperial court has swept the world. Wu Sangui didn't dare to admit what he thought, so as not to give someone a handle and leave an excuse for the imperial court to send troops into Sichuan.

Xia Yunyi scolded, raised his chin, and shouted to the coachman: "Go"

Where did Wu Sanrong dare to let him go by himself, if something happened on the way, the king of Zhenxi would really jump into the Yellow River and couldn't wash it.

He transferred 200 soldiers and horses to escort him, and ordered the messenger to send a message to Wu Sangui in Hanzhong.

Wu Sangui knew that Xia Yunyi was coming, but he didn't know that he was going to Hanzhong so soon.

Shu Road is indeed difficult to walk, Xia Yunyi is the minister of the Qincha, and he doesn't have to worry too much about things on the road. He slept in the carriage all night, only to suffer the escort soldiers.

He was in a hurry in Chengdu Mansion, and he was not in a hurry on the road, he only walked for a day at night, and then he hurried as normal, and only arrived in Hanzhong after three days.

There was no war in Hanzhong.

This year, Wu Sangui recruited many refugees from Henan, and the fields of Hanzhong Mansion are verdant and green, and the crops in the fields rise and fall in the summer wind.

The fief given to Wu Sangui by the imperial court was Sichuan, and Hanzhong belonged to the territory of Shaanxi. Xia Yunyi looked all the way and guessed that Wu Sangui didn't want to return Hanzhong to the imperial court.

Wu Sangui had already received a secret report and ordered the scouts to pay attention to the movements of the official road in the west. After seeing the chariot of Lord Qincha, he ordered a thousand soldiers and horses to go out of the city twenty miles to meet him.

After seeing Wu Sangui's banner battle, Xia Yunyi showed some kind colors. Only the king of Zhenxi was qualified to sit on an equal footing with the imperial court. Wu Sanrong is Wu Sangui's younger brother, and in his opinion, he is similar to the slave of the Wu family.

The two teams of soldiers and horses entered Hanzhong City in one, and Xia Yunyi ordered Wu Sangui to take the incense case.

Two years ago, when Zhang Huan was ordered to come to Henan to recruit Wu Sangui, he handed over the holy decree to him like a piece of paper.

After the announcement was completed, Xia Yunyi said: "The imperial court is very dissatisfied with the lack of progress in the Hanzhong army of the king of Zhenxi, and specially ordered the official to come to supervise the army. The regent said that this year and next year are the last moments of the Qing captives, the expulsion of the eastern captives, and the restoration of rivers and mountains is just around the corner

His words were very mean, and Wu Sangui's face was as black as a pig's liver.

Xia Yunyi didn't care about his expression, and said: "After Admiral Zuo defeated the Modong Mongols in Hetao, the Chahar people are marching to Liaodong, and the general trend of the Qing Dynasty has gone. ”

Such a Wenchen doesn't get in with oil and salt, even if he puts the knife on his neck, he won't frown.

Wu Sangui was not afraid of Xia Yunyi, he was thinking about what it meant for Zhai Zhe to send such a person to Hanzhong.

After recovering Hanzhong, he did have the idea of sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight. If Zuo Ruo is defeated in Shaanxi, the confrontation between the north and the south will continue for a while, and he will still have the opportunity to accumulate strength and fish in troubled waters. But now, the wait-and-see time is clearly over. Zheng Zhilong's obedience was a huge blow to his psyche, although he never thought of conspiring with Zheng Zhilong.

He tentatively asked, "I wonder when the imperial court will send troops to the Northern Expedition?" ”

Xia Yunyi said: "When the army is ready, it will naturally go on the Northern Expedition, and now please take Yunyang Mansion first, and prepare for the situation of attacking Henan with the Huguang army." ”

Wu Sangui nodded silently, the Qing court did not leave many soldiers and horses in Yunyang Mansion, and it was a step to capture Yunyang first.

The announcement was just the beginning, and in the following days, Xia Yunyi's behavior made Wu Sangui very troubled.

He took only fifty followers with him, but he did not regard himself as an outsider at all in Hanzhong. openly patrolled all over Hanzhong under the banner of the imperial court.

Wu Sangui sent soldiers to accompany him, and at the same time monitored Xia Yunyi's every move.

Four days later, Xia Yunyi almost understood the situation in Hanzhong and went to the government to meet Wu Sangui.

Wu Sangui has mobilized troops and horses in the past few days, and he has been ready to attack Yunyang, no matter what the actual effect is, at least on the surface, he has given Xia Yunyi or the Ming court enough face.

As soon as Xia Yunyi entered the mansion, he sat down in front of Wu Sangui, didn't even drink a sip of tea, and said: "I've seen it in the past few days, and the prince has run Hanzhong well."

Wu Sangui didn't know what he meant, but the prosperity of Hanzhong was indeed indispensable to his contributions.

Xia Yunyi's next sentence almost didn't make Wu Sangui squirt out the tea that had been drunk in his mouth.

"Hanzhong Mansion belongs to Shaanxi, and the imperial court announced to the world twenty days ago that it would exempt the four provinces of Shaanxi, Henan, Shanxi and Shandong from Tianfu, has the prince heard about it?"

"This ......" Wu Sangui couldn't hold back his anger.

Xia Yunyi's words changed very quickly, and said: "I thought of this section when I walked around the fields in the past few days, but considering that the prince's army needs grain and grass to fight, I am ready to write to the court that Hanzhong is exempted from this strategy." ”

Wu Sangui stared at Xia Yunyi with a gloomy face.

Xia Yunyi is awe-inspiring.
