Chapter 902: The Northwest is One
For the six northwestern states and many people who are concerned about the situation in the northwest, the situation in the northwest between April and May of the Han Empire can be described as confusing, changeable, full of fantasy, and completely elusive.
At the end of April, several states gathered in Lanzhou City, faintly with the king of Pingxi to fight against the trend, during this period, the state troops of each state moved frequently, gathered at the border of each state, one by one is a drill and a bandit, the noisy atmosphere of the army is almost to make people think that there will be a civil war between the six states in the northwest, especially at this time, the abnormal silence of the Pingxi palace will be regarded by the outside world as some kind of ominous atmosphere, in this atmosphere, the grain prices in the six states in the northwest at the end of April to the beginning of May, there has been a wave of a big rise, up to the wealthy families, small to the ordinary people, a person is panicked, for various reasons, all hoarding food at that time.
And at the beginning of May, a news from Lanzhou City shook the entire Northwest and even the Han Empire, leaving countless people stunned and hesitant to ride a roller coaster- At the same time, the four assassins of the four states of Pingxi also urged Yan Liqiang, the king of Pingxi, to form the Northwest General's Mansion, and to unify the military control of the six northwest states, and set up the Northwest Battalion, and the six state armies of the Northwest were unified into the Northwest Army, which was controlled by the Northwest General's Office, and the entire Northwest was twisted into a rope, and under the leadership of the King of Pingxi, the place was calmed, resisted external humiliation, and pacified the civil strife of the Han Empire......
When this news came out of Lanzhou City, the entire northwest was shaken, and for those wealthy families and ordinary people, the shock in their hearts when they heard the news was no less than the surprise they had when they heard that Yan Liqiang led the army to pacify the Shatu Seventh Division a few days ago.
Originally, the atmosphere between the Pingxi Royal Mansion and the four northwestern states could be described as tense, why did all of a sudden, all the four states turn?
This is a question in the hearts of countless people, but I am afraid that no one can answer this question except for the person concerned.
On the second day after the four assassins in Lanzhou City spoke out, Ganzhou Assassin Shi Lei Sitong also followed, and said the same thing and made the same expression to a cadre of civil and military officials and representatives of local wealthy families in Ganzhou City, and after three days of silence, Lin Zitong, who had been staying out of the matter before, finally spoke in Huanzhou City, and the content was the same as that of the four assassins in Lanzhou City.
Just two days after the five northwestern states said these words in Lanzhou, the latest issue of the "Han Imperial Times" published an article directly signed by Yan Liqiang, the king of Pingxi, on the front page, and the title of the article was "United as One, Northwest is One" In that article, Yan Liqiang gave a very high evaluation and praise to the history of the six states in the northwest, what is selfless, high-spirited, and well-understood righteousness, and the words are simply not too much, and in that article, Yan Liqiang also directly put forward his plan for the future of the northwest as the king of Pingxi, which can be summed up in eight words, "the northwest is integrated and shared The integration of the northwest refers to the integration of the military and political generals in the northwest, and the government is out of one door to unify the military and political command system of the northwest states, and the sharing and joint construction means that the six northwest states will enjoy the dividends in the development of Gulang Province and Black Capricorn Province together, and at the same time, the states will gradually cancel many checkpoints within the states, encourage the industrial and commercial industries of the states, and open up the circulation of personnel, so that all the people in the six northwest states can live and work in peace and contentment......
It was at the end of this article that Yan Liqiang directly invited the assassins of the six northwest states to Qiyun County on the 18th of this month to discuss the future of the northwest.
After this issue of the "Han Imperial Times" newspaper was issued, the entire northwest was boiling, and in just one day, all the newspapers were sold out, and the newspaper had to urgently open full capacity to reprint.
On 18 May, Pingxi City was full of jubilation, and the people gathered on both sides of the official road to watch the excitement, and on this day, Yan Liqiang took the county Chinese military officials out of the city for ten miles to welcome the six northwestern prefectures who came to Qiyun County together.
The teams on both sides have not yet met, far away, Yan Liqiang has already seen the banner on the opposite road, the history of the six states of the six states, has come to the official road in front, the county guard of the six states in the northwest, in addition to Lin Zitong of the Huanzhou Thorn History, the others Yan Liqiang is already "very familiar", the Huanzhou Thorn Shi Lin Zitong looks more than fifty years old, wearing a purple and red Thorn History robe, elegant and handsome temperament, riding a white rhinosaurus horse, just by the side of Lei Sitong, the whole person from the aura and Lei Sitong form a sharp contrast.
The Thorn History of the Six States rode the rhino dragon horse to the front, and the six Thorn Histories were accompanied by Lu Peien, the new pawn of the Pingxi Palace, and the convoy guards of the six Thorn Histories were all lined up behind them, waving flags and being orderly.
Of course, the assassin history of these six states did not arrive at the same time at this moment, like Lei Sitong arrived yesterday, but he did not enter the city, in order to be able to accept Yan Liqiang's greeting with the assassin history of other states today, and then enter the city together, although this kind of ceremony is a bit formalized, but at this time, it is essential.
The twin hairs also gathered more than 50 meters, Yan Liqiang jumped off the colorful clouds to chase the moon, and strode directly towards the six thorn histories, and the six thorn histories also got off the horse at the same time and walked towards Yan Liqiang, and the two sides met in the official road, under the gaze of countless people.
"I've seen His Royal Highness the King of Pingxi!" The six assassins saw Yan Liqiang coming, stopped at the same time, and then forcibly saluted Yan Li together.
"Your Excellency is loyal to the country, you can put aside your private opinions and personal interests, put the well-being and future of hundreds of millions of people in the northwest states first, and the great Han Empire's rivers and mountains and social institutions, and work tirelessly to come to Qiyun County to discuss major matters with me, please accept Yan Liqiang's bow!" Yan Liqiang's face was solemn, and under the gaze of countless people, he bowed heavily to the six people at the same time.
Although Gu Tongan and the others among the six people were in different moods when they came, they were not necessarily happy, but at this moment, seeing Yan Liqiang so solemn, they suddenly raised the behavior of several people by a big cut, and they had mixed feelings in their hearts, and they hurriedly returned the salute one by one, and they didn't even dare to take it.
The two sides exchanged pleasantries for a while, and only then did they see each other.
"This must be Lord Lin Zitong, the thorn of Huanzhou!" Yan Liqiang's gaze fell on Lin Zitong's face, "I heard that Lord Lin has made outstanding achievements in governing Huanzhou, and when I saw Lord Lin today, I really didn't disappoint."
"Don't dare, compared to His Highness's great exploits in pacifying the Seven Divisions of the Shatu and the Black Corn Tribe with the power of one county, I can already be regarded as mediocre in Huanzhou!" Lin Zitong said cautiously, without a smug look on his face.
Among the six thorn histories, although Lin Zitong is quite calm on the surface, he is actually the most uneasy one among the people, because he doesn't know what tacit understanding and compromise Yan Liqiang and other state thorn histories have to make those thorn histories completely fall to Yan Liqiang at once, it is precisely because he doesn't know, he doesn't understand the interests of the joint, and he feels that he has suddenly become an outsider, Lin Zitong is nervous, in the eyes of outsiders, the scene at this moment is a Pingxi king and their six state thorn histories meeting, but in Lin Zitong's feelings, the scene here is a Pingxi king and the thorn history of the five northwestern states Seeing him alone, except for him, other people here, they are all in a group, such a combination of forces, and he can't compete with him if he is given five more huanzhou, so he can only come obediently this time, and before he comes, he has left a will for his family and arranged the future.
What Lin Zitong thought in his heart, under the effect of the snake recitation, Yan Liqiang knew it in an instant, he just smiled dumbly, then looked around, and said to everyone, "I heard that your lords came to Qiyun County from various states and it was quite lively along the way, and the people along the way were jubilant and competing to escort them?"
"I didn't expect adults to even know this!" Gu Tongan let out a long sigh and said with some genuine feelings, I have been a stabbing historian for so many years, and there are a lot of honor guards when I go out, but this time I went out, on this thousand-mile journey, I really felt what it was like to welcome the guards of the people, I traveled all the way along the way The people took the initiative to send wine and meat, and the people of the local wealthy families and officials greeted and sent them back, and the honor guards were endless, so courtesy, it was unheard of, and several other adults encountered along the way, which was also the same, which was really emotional......"
"Lord Gu is right, let the northwest prosper and stabilize, avoid internal friction, is not only the responsibility of my generation, but also the desire of hundreds of millions of people in the northwest, several adults today's move, in line with the will of heaven, the people's will, to avoid a catastrophe, can be described as immeasurable merit, will be remembered by the world in the future!"
"Your Highness is polite, if there is no Your Highness, the six states in the northwest are also a mess of scattered sand, it is difficult to have today's grand occasion, if you really want to talk about it, this is still the credit of Your Highness......" Wang Yushu also smiled on the side, patting Yan Liqiang's horse.
"That's it!" the two assassins next to him also said politely.
After the group met and greeted each other on the official road, Yan Liqiang directly took the six thorns, rode the rhinosaurus horse, chatted while walking, and returned to Pingxi City.
Compared with the outside of the city, Pingxi City is more lively, as soon as seven people enter the city, there are clean water sprinklers along the way, flowers are paved on the ground, and the people cheer, which is more lively.
Everyone came directly to the reception hall of the palace, and after the guests and hosts took their seats, Yan Liqiang clapped his hands, and the guards in the six palaces each came to the table in front of the six thorns with a tray covered with a silver cover, and then retreated.
Several assassins looked at each other, and even Lei Sitong didn't know what arrangements Yan Liqiang had.
"My lord, this is ......" Gu Tongan asked cautiously.
"Your Excellency will know when you open it......"
The six Thorns glanced at each other, opened the silver-shrouded tray, and found what appeared to be a clerical deed beneath the tray.
Lin Zitong carefully opened the document contract in front of him, and after seeing the contents on it, he was stunned for a moment.
The document deed is a land deed, on which 200,000 acres of Gongtian grassland in the Gulang grassland have been divided, and it has fallen under the names of several Thorn History, and on the contract, these 200,000 mu of Gongtian Grassland is a death deed, which cannot be traded and transferred, and can only be inherited by the families and descendants of several Thorn History.
Even with a person like Gu Tongan, when he saw the handwriting and schema on the title deed, he couldn't help but feel dizzy in his head, and couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of spit......
The blood-red seal of the Pingxi Palace's mansion and Yan Liqiang's signature on the contract were particularly eye-catching.
"I said before, today's move of several adults, in line with the will of God, under the will of the people, to avoid a catastrophe in the northwest, can be described as immeasurable, these 200,000 acres of farmland, is my behalf of the hundreds of millions of people in the northwest to give you a gift, as long as I Yan Liqiang and the descendants of the Yan family are rich and noble, there are several adults and several adults and grandchildren of the rich and noble for a day......" Yan Liqiang looked at several thorns, Zhengse said.
Gu Tongan and his several difficult brothers and sisters glanced at each other, their eyes were complicated, they were already fish on Yan Liqiang's board at the moment, they couldn't move at all, Yan Liqiang said whatever it was, they only nodded, where did they think that Yan Liqiang actually prepared such a heavy gift for them that could benefit their descendants, such a heavy gift, if they were officials in the imperial court, even if they were assassins for ten lifetimes, they would not be able to get so many rewards, and if they wanted to talk about means, Yan Liqiang was ten times more ruthless than the imperial court。
For this kind of person who is ten times stronger than the court by all means, who dares to have a different heart, surrendering to the court itself is also a thorn history, with the emperor on his head, and submitting to the king of Pingxi himself is also a thorn history, with the king of Pingxi on his head, what difference is this, such a troubled world, maybe under the hands of such a person, his results may be better!
At this time, the little dissent in the hearts of several assassins was all extinguished at once, Gu Tongan was the first to stand up from the chair, the old tears were horizontal, and he bowed heavily to Yan Liqiang, completely convinced, "In the future, Gu Tong'an will only look ......forward to His Royal Highness."
