Chapter 035: Out of the Stopper
On the twenty-sixth day of October, the Son of Heaven came to the Huangji Gate and sent Dachen to the Tuxilu Mission with hundreds of officials to discuss the resumption of the mutual market.
Looking at the majestic Son of Heaven Lu Book, and looking at the civil and military ministers behind the emperor with a respectful and thoughtful face, Lin Shifan couldn't help but fill his chest with a sigh of anger.
Taking advantage of the parting moment, he quietly pulled Wen Jiusheng aside, "My envoy this time will be at least January, and at most will not be able to return until the end of the year." Ge Laowan should be more careful, help His Majesty to make up his mind in all matters, and the city defense and military affairs can be temporarily handed over to Yiqiu and Xiaoyi, or you can go to the Wei Mansion to find Fei Minghe to ask about it. ”
The more he spoke, the more depressed he became, and he couldn't help but stomp his feet towards Wen Jiusheng, "You see that you are the emperor of the three dynasties, and you have countless protégés, but you want to fight for a false name that you don't like to fight for. ”
Wen Jiusheng knew that he was really in a hurry, and replied with a slight smile on his chin: "The old man is not a nerd, he knows what is wrong, you can rest assured that Xi Lu is unearthed in the west, and everything in Beijing has me." ”
He nodded to the side and the back, and smiled at Fei Wenli, the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites, who was standing with his hands down, before he said to Shifan again: "No, first find a protégé to meet the world with you, this time the envoy is meritorious, and it is good to focus on promotion, isn't it?" ”
Lin Shifan knew that Fei Wenli, who went with him this time, was the Tanhualang personally ordered by Wen Jiusheng when he was the first emperor, he was cautious and thoughtful, and it was rare to be broad, and he could also get along with a group of old ministers and old ministers of the first emperor, and he knew that the old lady Wen had also made great efforts to select people for the mission this time, and the anxiety in his heart was slightly weakened.
After the group said goodbye to the Son of Heaven, they went out of Shunyi Gate from the west of the Huangji Gate, and went west with the thousand-person guards of Wei Chengye, A Xiao and Guo Xiaoyi who were waiting in front of the city gate.
Cheng Ye took Ah Xiao to follow closely behind Lin Shifan and whispered: "Have you checked the details of the people in the mission?" ”
"Since His Majesty drew up the list, I went to check, this Li Chong, who led the guards, is a partial general personally ordered by Xiaoyi's father, who can shoot a foot bow of 200 stones with one hand, and his riding and archery skills are also very good. Fei Wenli, the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites, had excellent skills in the first emperor's examination, and he was supposed to be promoted, but he somehow offended the fathers-in-law in the palace, and the promotion was gone......"
Lin Shifan, who was walking in front, laughed "sneered", frowned and glared at the two, Cheng Ye's face was unprovoked with a burst of shame, and he interrupted Ah Xiao dissatisfiedly, "After checking for so many days and saying something useful, who doesn't know these things?" ”
Ah was stunned, and he dared to make a silent voice for a while, only looking at Cheng Ye from the corner of his eyes that flew upwards.
Ah Xiao has been getting a lot taller in recent days, his eyebrows and eyes are quite sharp, the outlines of the tails of his eyes and eyebrows are going up, and he follows Guo Xiaoyi every day, and his martial arts have also grown considerably.
After thinking about it for a long time, he still didn't have any plans in his heart, and he was afraid of making Lin Shifan dissatisfied again, so he stubbornly said: "There is such a strange thing——"
Seeing that Shifan and Cheng Ye in front of him were listening to the next with their ears pricked up, he glanced behind him, lifted the reins of the horse and walked a few steps forward to walk side by side with Cheng Ye, and then continued in a low voice: "The master of the military department in the back, Fu Zhi, fell in love with an orchid in Qinghe Tower, and scattered all his family wealth for him, and the orchid suddenly ran away by herself a few days ago. ”
It was still an extremely boring thing, and Cheng Ye couldn't help but look at the back of the team after hearing it.
Fu Zhi is extremely tall, sitting on horseback and more than half a head taller than the crowd around him, his delicate face is shrouded in a heavy gray defeat, and the civil official robe he is wearing seems to be half an inch shorter, the whole person is indescribably depressed and awkward, Cheng Ye pouted, I don't know if he is a talent, but he is really very romantic, and he is like this for an orchid.
I turned around and found that Shifan was also turning his head to look around, just facing Chengye's eyes, "This is the grandson of Jingxi Hou of Mingzong, although it has declined, but he has a talent, he is very good at horses, and he brought him to Tuxilu to see the famous horse of Xisai." ”
Shifan didn't seem to finish speaking, the corners of his mouth pursed an upward arc, Cheng Ye immediately understood that Tu Xilu has always produced famous horses, and this time it is said that the mutual market, and the purchase of a batch of war horses is also the proper meaning.
Thinking about it in my heart, I couldn't help but feel proud for a while, and the words I said casually made a little more measured: "It's really a talent, but it's a pity that in the military department, I'm afraid that the son-in-law who followed him won't be able to be a big official......"
A sharp gaze slashed over, stabbing Cheng Ye to stop his mouth, and he felt remorseful in his heart.
Shifan asked solemnly: "What is planned for this trip is very important, have you asked Mr. Fei to do your homework?" ”
"Some uncles," Cheng Ye nodded very obediently, and pressed his fingers to say to himself, "The current Moduo Khan of Tuxilu succeeded to the throne of the Khan five years ago, and inherited the most warlike Tuxilu wolf guard from the hands of the old Khan, controlling 80,000 elite cavalry. ”
Cheng Ye turned sideways on horseback, for fear that Shifan would not hear, "Tuxilu is mainly divided into four tribes, except for the Shule Department of Moduo Khan, the current king of the Lamulun tribe is respected, he is the wife and brother of the old Khan, and he has 60,000 cavalry under his command...... More than 10 years ago, my father and eldest brother went to Tuxilu with Huaiyuan soldiers to quell the rebellion, and directly reduced the 100,000 soldiers and horses of the old man Lamulun to eighty percent, and now these 60,000 cavalry are probably only trained in the past few years. The old man tried his best to promote the succession of Modo Khan, and he was very respected, so he occupied the most fertile pastures in Tuxilu, and there was a huge horse farm in his hands. ”
"Uncle, the old man of Lamulun must hate Dachen to the bone, Mr. Fei said that the biggest obstacle to the reopening of the mutual market this time is him."
Looking at Shifan's expression, his mouth moved, but he didn't ask after all. Last night, he pestered Mr. Fei to ask if there was a clever plan for this trip, and persuaded the old man of Lamulun and the Modo Khan to restart the mutual market, and Mr. Fei's mysterious face aroused his curiosity and fidgeting.
"Uncle, do you have a way to convince the old man of Lamulun?"
"Mountain people have their own tricks." Lin Shifan was quite complacent, but pretended to be mysterious.
"Is it related to cloud chasing and wind chasing?" Cheng Ye couldn't help but ask.
Yun Chase and Feng Chaser are the two personal guards of Shifan, whether it is fighting or traveling for more than ten years, the two of them have not left him an inch, but they have not seen the two of them on this trip, it is difficult not to think that they were sent to carry out mission-related tasks.
Shifan smiled when he heard this, threw a sentence in response, and urged the yellow horse under his crotch to go forward.
"Do your homework unsatisfactorily, be optimistic about your own mouth, watch more, talk less!"
"Doesn't it mean that there is also a King Tiele, a good brother of the old khan, with 40,000 soldiers in his hands, who is far-sighted and takes great care of Princess Yicheng's mother and son, and will definitely fully support the reopening of the mutual market on this trip?"
Ah Xiao is still recalling the information that Mr. Fei has given them in the past few days, and he can't help but wonder, if King Tiele and Princess Yicheng are in favor of the mutual market, can the old man of Lamulun not count?
Looking up at Cheng Ye, he was staring at the ground in front of him, thinking about something.
