This batch of imperial edicts and materials that caused a series of disasters from the beginning were finally protected by the Tiger Ben Army and safely delivered to their original destination, Huangsha County, but unfortunately the person who came this time was not Lu Dengyun who made an oath to Gu Xuan, but an ordinary-looking middle-aged general, after bringing someone to send something, he casually said a few polite words and turned around and left directly, no matter how Gu Xuan thanked and retained, the other party did not reveal anything more to him.

Standing at the gate of Nancheng, which had become extremely lively, Gu Xuan looked at the back of the other party's group of people leaving silently, frowning slightly.

He didn't know if it was because Lu Dengyun felt that he was being used by him, and he was very indignant in his heart, so he didn't come, or what.

Lu Dengyun is a person with an honest and reliable temperament, loyal to the imperial court, and with outstanding talent, he will be a fierce general in the army in the future, leading the army to charge into battle and attack the city.

Although the fame is not big now, but once it comes to wartime, it will naturally shine, and the two sides are already very close to each other, in all fairness, in public and private, he wants to summon it as a general, although he also understands that the other party stays in the Tiger Ben Army to develop, it must be much better than coming to Huangsha County now, but it is always right to build a good relationship with each other in advance, and now it has become like this, and I don't know if it is right or wrong.

He didn't know that since the hook-nosed raccoon dog held the order of the Great General's Mansion to stop Lu Dengyun at the post station, Lu Dengyun had already become suspicious and disgusted with the General's Mansion, and the words that Gu Xuan and Lu Yi said to him in Huangsha County had planted seeds deep in his heart, but he didn't know it yet, if there was no external force to help him, maybe this seed would never germinate, but as long as there was an external force to interfere, then this seed would immediately break through the ground, and now this is the case, at least, he will no longer believe in the General's Mansion wholeheartedly。

It's just that although Lan Yunxuan made a sudden move on behalf of the Tiger Ben Army and General Zuo, no matter how you look at this matter, it can be regarded as a bad plan for the Great General's Mansion, but they are just to save Lu Dengyun who ran recklessly, otherwise once there is no evidence at hand that is sufficient to protect themselves, they don't know how the Great General's Mansion will threaten General Zuo.

Lu Dengyun, as a hundred households in the border army, suddenly left the station without saying goodbye, rode a horse and left the station without permission, and ran to the post station of the imperial court to make a fuss.

But whether it was Lan Yunxuan who joined the army or Pei Zhengyang, who was the left general of the town army, in fact, from the bottom of their hearts, they didn't want to be enemies of the Great General's Mansion.

Pei Zhengyang can have this achievement in his life, and to this day, he is ranked as a second-class military general in the imperial court, and he is in charge of an army, which is indispensable for the support and trust of the old general Xu Qianzhong, so even if he doesn't like Xu Jintang's gloomy temperament and actions from the bottom of his heart, he will never openly oppose him until he has to.

Because they all know one thing, the Xu family is the soul of the Youzhou army, after the loss of the general of the Zhu State, the Youzhou army is a plate of scattered sand, the Youzhou army can go to this day, the Xu family has made great achievements, if it were not for the Xu family, where would the imperial court give priority to all good things to Youzhou?

Lan Yunxuan and General Zuo could not hesitate to offend the General's Mansion in order to save Lu Dengyun this time, but they didn't want him to have more entanglements with the King of Hedong County.

The Youzhou Army is a whole, and there must be no civil strife, even if the other party is a child of the Gu family, it is not allowed to cholera the Youzhou Army, not to mention that the border army does not participate in political affairs, which is also the default rule of all parties.

Lu Dengyun also happened to need a period of time to think about the internal problems of the Youzhou Army, and he also knew that his rash action this time had brought great trouble to General Zuo, and he didn't want General Zuo, who had been loyal all his life, to have a bad relationship with the Great General's Mansion because of himself, so in the face of Lan Yunxuan's grounding punishment, he didn't object to half a word.

The General's Mansion has absolute control over Youzhou, Xu Jintang is the generalissimo of Youzhou, the first-class pillar of the imperial court, according to the rules, he can dismiss General Zuo at will, just to avoid causing a mutiny in the Tiger Army, he will not do this, but secretly make some small trips, which is enough to make this side anxious and exhausted.

In short, General Zuo is already old, and he must not ruin his reputation because of Lu Dengyun's recklessness.

------------------------------------

In the hall of the county government office in Huangsha County, this batch of materials from the capital was finally transported to where he should be.

It's just that to Gu Xuan and the others, what surprised Gu Xuan and the others was that there were really a lot of things sent by the imperial court this time, and they even filled the entire hall, of course, this was actually because of the secret help of the Ministry of Shangshu Ye Zhihuai, otherwise these rare and sought-after goods would not be twice as many as before.

The household department of the imperial court is in charge of the treasury and taxation, as for the other parties, they will only reach out to ask for money, how to regulate and control all parties, use limited money to do more things, and even leave surplus grain every year to deal with possible emergencies in the coming year, this is the ability of the household department, can share the profits for them so many things, it is really not possible to rely on the night to know Huai.

These big boxes contained jewelry, tea, silk and porcelain.

If you really want to talk about it, these things are actually of no benefit to those low-level Rakshasa people who are still struggling on the edge of food and clothing, and they don't even know what these things are even if they put the box in front of them.

For them, who are worried about their survival, this big box, full of dazzling and beautiful jewelry, is not as attractive to them as an ordinary piece of chicken thigh, even if this piece of chicken thigh meat has fallen to the ground and has been stepped on a few times, it is enough to save their lives.

But these things in the box, for those nobles in the Rakshasa clan, are rare treasures that they flock to and can go crazy for.

The nobility of each intelligent race, after reaching a certain level, will naturally learn to enjoy, or it can be said to pursue a more refined life, so that they will spend a lot of time and money on things that are simply flashy in the eyes of some outsiders.

It doesn't matter if you are familiar with the scriptures of the saints, the tyrants of the human race who claim to rule the family with etiquette, or these hairy and blood-drinking barbarians in the desert, as long as you reach the level of your respective race, even if it is just to distinguish yourself from the ordinary, even lowly and inferior people in your clan, it will be the same.

It can be a deliberate, cumbersome etiquette.

The children of the wealthy family eat at home, the family must sit down in the order of generation, before eating, they are never allowed to talk to each other, no one will open their mouths to chew during the banquet, let alone make the sound of colliding with the dishes, every dish must have leftover, and even every part of a chicken has been allocated early, they must chew slowly when eating, speak softly on weekdays, and must not make loud noises in public.

It can also be flaunted with precious objects recognized by the world.

Scholars must wear jade pendants on their waists when they go out, and rich people generally like to pull out their original teeth, replace them with gold teeth, and wear gold utensils.

In short, as long as there is something that can be used to distinguish the commoners and nobles in the clan, and can show their nobility and difference, it will immediately become something that is highly sought after by the upper class, which is human nature, and it is our nature to be born as human beings.

When we no longer need to worry about food, water, sleep and other basic survival needs, then we will naturally consider a deeper level of security, our personal safety, the protection of private property, the health of the body, the same two pieces of meat in front of us, at the beginning of the hungry people, will definitely eat, but after a full stomach, we will naturally learn to choose the better selling piece, when we no longer have to think about the safety issue, then there is a sense of belonging and other emotional issues, we need family, we need friends, we need lovers, to meet our increasingly rich feelings, and then, we need respectNo one wants to be someone that everyone respects, everyone envies, and everyone wants to be.

Demands are unavoidable.

But how can we make everyone respect or envy us?

In the beginning, there were only two ways to do this, either to create enough achievements to impress others, or to have enough power.

Riding horses and fighting swords, expelling Yidi, and recovering the warriors of the homeland, or the Huang Zi Gongqing who has the power of the world and can determine the life and death of a person in one word, and then a little more simply, for an ordinary long-term worker in the countryside, a squire and tyrant who sits on a hundred acres of fertile land and does not have to worry about food and clothing is enough.

To put it more simply, it is to have precious items that ordinary people cannot have.

After all, is jewelry really worth money?

It's just a pile of broken rocks.

Is gold really worth anything?

It's just an ordinary mineral, and when it comes to real value, where can it compare to strong and durable steel?

But no matter where he goes, he asks anyone, a piece of armor made of pure gold and an armor made of fine iron, which one he wants, almost everyone will want the one made of gold, although the latter can protect his life in a critical moment, while the former is just a flashy straw bale.

This is the need for respect, it is our vanity, even if these things are actually not beneficial to the development of the race, but a box of high-quality silk produced in Jiangzhou, Liangguo, is enough to make the nobles of the Rakshasa clan can't take their eyes off it, that kind of silky skin-like texture, finely cut workmanship, can let them take out hundreds of cattle and sheep to exchange with you, even if these cattle and sheep can be used to feed a large number of people.

It's face.

As for the edict issued by the province of Zhongshu in the imperial court, the Rakshasa clan who returned to the country was canonized as the "Khan", and he was the king in the sand sea, and he was the co-lord of all the Rakshasa clans.

In fact, they didn't want to think about it, how could the king of the Rakshasa clan need the approval of the people of Liangguo?

But a statement and support from a neighbor who is powerful next to them represents an official name, and with this, with the help of a strong neighbor, they can naturally rule over other tribes.

This is Satoko.

Of course, in the eyes of ordinary people in Liangguo, this may be very stupid, they will not understand, why the imperial court wants to send a large amount of wealth to the enemies who poison the border all the year round, endanger the people, and even help them unify, and even have a high status, this is simply a loser, it is a shame.

But in the eyes of the rulers of the Liang Kingdom, aren't the Rakshasa clans even more stupid, why would they directly succumb to the Liang Kingdom for the sake of these flashy things?

These so-called rare silks and porcelain, for them, are as much as they want, as long as the cool is still there, it is inexhaustible, and these things that are not worth anything at all can be exchanged for peace on the border, which is very cost-effective.

The Rakshasa people will not seriously think about the intentions of the people of Liangguo, they may also think that the people of Liangguo are fools, they may also think that after unification, they will no longer deal with the people of Liangguo, and even continue to blackmail and invade in turn, but who can say clearly about this matter in between.

What Da Liang needs is for the Rakshasa clan to be able to maintain the middle and immediate power for the time being, for this, they can pay some price, wait until the real enemy is eradicated, and when everything is settled, then they will not be able to do it.

And what Gu Xuan, as the king of Hedong County, will do is nothing more than rely on this box of gold, silver, jewelry, porcelain and silk to knock out the pitiful backbone of the Rakshasa clan little by little. ()
