Chapter 073: Fu System
Not!
Fu Ji suddenly sat up straight, took a pen, rolled up his sleeves, and drew a sinuous curve from the Dongshan Tomb to the strait.
"There's a river here, called the Xiaochai River. During the flood season, the river always overflowed the river bank and flooded to the house of the Tanglin Guard, and the military department had to receive the excerpt of the Tanglin Guard's silver to repair the house every year. ”
"Yes, yes", Fei Wenli patted the table and echoed: "I also remember, when the tomb was repaired, because the underground palace was close to the river, and the drainage project also supported a large amount of silver, the first emperor once ordered the Ministry of Rites to re-survey the location of the underground palace in order to save expenses. ”
This thing is said that everyone remembers, because it is not a formal royal mausoleum, the construction of the Dongshan Mausoleum began in the later years of Taizu, lasted nearly a hundred years, because the imperial court finances were tight and loose, and the successive emperors attached great importance to it lightly and heavily, so it was often repaired and stopped, until the first emperor was reluctant to deliver.
Lin Shifan repeatedly rubbed his fingers against the area where the Xiaochai River flowed, and suddenly muttered:
"I thought that the Tulun people dared to take the sea route because they wanted to take advantage of the winter to walk on the ice and then go to the sea, so it turned out to be the plan."
The Turks were good at horseback, and their cavalry was almost invincible in the field of the vast plains.
Correspondingly, due to geographical limitations, the Turks were extremely poor at shipbuilding and water warfare, so taking the sea route was a big challenge for the Turks.
And if you venture over the lofty mountains north of the Dongshan Mausoleum, you will reach the Xiaochai River in the Dongshan Mausoleum.
Because the strait is extremely narrow, even if it is a small boat, as long as it is not too unlucky to encounter a storm and tsunami, it can land in Dongyu in half a day.
"Ebony Nanjiang has a good calculation."
Shi Fan sneered.
"If the Turks really borrowed the road from the Dongshan Tomb, the Tanglin Guard should have the warning - I don't know if Your Majesty has received the warning from the Tanglin Guard."
Cheng Ye said, he was a little anxious in his heart.
Before the envoy, he agreed with Yuan Zheng that if there was something extremely important, he must send his henchmen to deliver the letter back and forth in person. If the fake hand post delivered the news, the content of the letter would have been read by many people first.
Therefore, during the period of envoy Tuxilu, the transmission of news was not smooth, and little was known about the dynamics between the DPRK and China, coupled with the domestic turmoil in Tuxilu in the past few days, even if there was news transmitted here, there would be a lot of delay on the road.
The most important thing is that even if you want to deliver the message, you don't have enough people right now.
Originally, the most suitable for delivering the news were Yun Chai and Feng Cha beside his uncle, Yun Chai led a team of men and horses to secretly escort the mission into Quanshang City, and Feng Chai secretly escorted Ah Lan all the way.
On the day when Feng chased Ah Lan safely, he followed his uncle's arrangement to return to Dachen to protect Ah Lan's daughter.
On the day of the failure of the mutual market, his uncle was imprisoned, and Cheng Ye found the clues of Feng Sidao's activities in Tuxilu, knowing that the matter was serious, he specially repaired a letter to Fei Minghe, and was afraid that others would be delayed on the road, so he personally entrusted Yun Chai to take someone to send the letter back. If you don't stop, you should have delivered the news.
He blamed himself very much in his heart, in fact, if he left a few Yun Chai and his party, he might have more helpers to the tent of King Tiele, and the Quyi people would probably not be outnumbered and killed in battle.
"As far as I know, the combat power of the Tanglin Guard should be able to eliminate a small force of Tulun cavalry, and there is no need for your lordship to worry."
Fu has a low rank, and humbly bows his hand to everyone.
In order to show respect for the martyr's maternal grandfather, Emperor Taizu named his most warlike son Hai Sheng as the Duke of the East China Sea, and led his elite 50,000 people to guard the Dongshan Mausoleum for generations to maintain the stability of the Northeast Territory, which was the predecessor of the Donglin Guard.
Although there has been no war in the northeast territory of Dachen for a long time, the East China Sea Gong is extremely good at commanding troops, and now the combat power of the Tanglin Guard will definitely not be a problem to eliminate the small group of Tulun cavalry that attacked.
Shifan breathed a sigh of relief and said to Chengye:
"After all, I am thousands of miles away, and I don't know the news of Kyoto, so I still can't rest assured. Early tomorrow morning, we will go and ask King Tiele to be accommodating, and interrogate Lamulun as soon as possible. After the trial, you will first take the people back to Kyoto as soon as possible, and I will take care of the follow-up affairs of the mission. ”
Cheng Ye saw that he looked tired, and after solemnly responding, he wanted to retire with Fei Wenli and Fu Zhi.
"Master Fu stays, there is one more thing to explain here."
Fu Zhi's eyes flickered slightly, and then he calmly waved his hand at Lin Shifan, and stood in front of him with his head bowed.
"The orchid you're looking for, named Worm, has been found by the Wind Chases and is now in a safe place."
As soon as he finished speaking, he found that Fu Zhi had completely changed into a person, and the corners of his eyebrows and eyes couldn't stop being happy, and his hands were twisted together, as if he had mustered up enough courage, and asked:
"Was she hurt? Have you been bullied? Adults know ......"
Looking at Lin Shifan's gradually cold face, he had to swallow the unfinished words, and stood with his head bowed again.
"They threatened you with the news of the mission's itinerary to outsiders, yes or no?"
“…… Yes, I knew I couldn't hide it from the eyes of adults. ”
Fu Zhi raised his head and looked directly at Shi Fan and said:
"Fu is not a disobedient person, even if the other party threatens the life of the beloved, I did not agree. Until he saw Na Bai Xian later, he kept his subordinates from harming the mission. I looked at it coldly, and it didn't look like he was sabotaging the peace talks, but more like a reminder that there was danger ahead. So...... Therefore, Xia Guan also deliberately showed his deeds in front of Lord Wei, and with the intelligence of Lord Lin and Lord Wei, he would definitely be able to detect abnormalities. ”
"Yes, I'll just say that even if the Jingxi Hou lineage has declined, the blood is still there, how can he do such a foolish thing."
Fu Zhi heard Shifan mention his ancestors, and his face couldn't help but be scornful, but fortunately, Lin Shifan only did not see it, paced back and forth in the tent with his hands in his hand, and suddenly asked:
"When you came into contact with Bai Xian and his party, what anomalies did you notice? Has he ever said something or done something that makes people scratch their heads? ”
Fu Ji racked his brains and thought about it for a long time, but he really couldn't remember anything unusual about that group of nondescript vendors, and when he was about to return to Shifan, he suddenly remembered something:
"It's just that Bai is the first, there are a few men in the team who always complain about the hard work, saying that 'the old thing is picked up for all the cheap things, and the messenger who is so hard assigned to us must make the old thing'."
The person who was called the "old thing" in and out of the words did not have a good relationship with Bai Xian and the others, which is why Bai Xian's caravan was so abnormal, and he tried his best to walk with the mission, but in the end he did nothing.
Shi Fan smiled, with a clear expression.
Feng Si said that he often did everything to achieve his goals, and his methods were ruthless and vicious, and often his comrades in the same camp were afraid of him and regarded him as an outlier.
"The Worm Girl is fine, she is not injured because she was taken hostage with the intention of blackmailing you."
Fu Zhi's figure shook slightly, and then he heard Shifan say:
"Tomorrow, you and Cheng Ye will return to Beijing quickly, and you will probably be able to see her once - you know that her complexion is different from others, and you saw the witch doctor Ah Lan in the Golden Horde of Modo Khan that day, and you know that they are the same kind - in fact, Worm is the daughter of Ah Lan."
Fu Zhi looked sad, and smiled reluctantly:
"From the first time I saw her, I knew she was anything but ordinary. It's just that since her father is responsible for the death of the old khan, the father and daughter are afraid that they will have to hide in the world in order to protect themselves in the future. ”
"Ah Lan had a lot of grievances in the past, and now that Tu Xilu has subjugated the law, King Tiele will most likely clear up Ah Lan's grievances, and their father and daughter will have a much better life in the future than before."
Fu Zhi grinned, but his face was gloomy.
"It's a great thing that she got rid of her lowly status and regained her identity, and she can be reunited with her father again."
