Wang Yan ignored his nephew, took the letter and the official seal and went to Zhao Jie, after Jiangling was captured, the civil affairs of the Liang State were managed by the army, and Wang Yan had to take over the authority from Zhao Jie. ◢ with * dream ◢ small *.lā

Wang Ji followed him step by step and reminded: "The Lin and Zhao families are not in harmony, don't be in front of Lord Lin in front of him." ”

"Hey, aren't the two of them related?"

"It's a falling out," although he still doesn't understand why he fell out, "There was a fight between the clan and the clan before the winter last year, and the Zhao clan was defeated, so now I must hate the Lin County Lord very much, if you want to go well, don't mention her." ”

Wang Yan snorted and said, "I can't even fight a woman, and Zhao Jie can't do it." ”

Wang Ji glanced at his uncle silently.

Wang Yan said so, but in his heart he raised Lin Qingwan's status to a higher level, although he had never dealt with Zhao Jie, he also knew him.

It's just that Lin Qingwan can do what his cousin can't do, and he can still defeat Zhao Jie, who holds the power of the army, then she is not an ordinary woman.

Thinking of the apology implied in the letter to him earlier, Wang Yan didn't dare to underestimate it in his heart.

Although Lin Qingwan did not have a clear apology in the letter to him, it was full of apologies, anyway, he was in a very comfortable mood, not to mention that he was willing to come to Jiangling, but he was not happy to come, and there was not much resistance after reading the letter.

What's more, Lin Qingwan came to Jiangling for him, not only sent his nephew over to help, but also mentioned several people who could help him, and even gave him the credit for recruiting Yao Shi.

There was not a hint of merit in that letter.

This thoughtfulness and open-mindedness are not something that ordinary people can have.

Yao Shizhi is second only to Ji Yuan, if he can recruit him, then he will not only be able to add a stroke to his resume, but he is afraid that His Majesty will be impressed.

The corners of Wang Yan's mouth curled slightly, and when he saw Zhao Jie standing at the gate of the mansion to greet him, his smile was even bigger, and he stepped forward enthusiastically with the appearance of a family son, "But General Zhao?" ”

Zhao Jie clenched his fists and smiled, "It's here, I'm waiting for Lord Wang to come, please come inside." ”

Wang Ji glanced at the human-looking uncle and silently followed.

Zhao Jie glanced at him curiously, "Who is this?" ”

"Oh, this is the little nephew in the family, who has nothing to do at home, and has come to help me run errands."

Zhao Jie glanced at Wang Ji, who was embarrassed, and retracted his gaze with a smile, thinking that he was just a side branch of the Wang family who came to run errands for Wang Yan.

Now the border line of Chuliang has been lengthened again, and the situation on the Jiangling side is a little more complicated, Chen Xiang is no better than others, he is very reckless, and recently he is sending people to provoke the Liang army, wanting to provoke a war.

Zhao Jie said: "I think he wants to swallow the whole of Jiangling, and he has Yao Shi and others on his side, who have been spreading rumors here in recent days, and the people's hearts are fluctuating, and they always feel that the Chu side is better." ”

Zhao Jie sighed, "It's a pity, at that time, Lord Lin shouldn't have let Yao Shi go, he has a very high prestige among the people of Jiangling, because he is on the side of Chu State, and Chen Xiang is very advantageous." ”

Wang Yan also sighed, "At that time, it would be good if General Zhao captured the imperial city of Jiangling first, and then it would be our Liang State who would have these talents in Yao Shi." ”

Zhao Jie choked, raised his head and looked at Wang Yan seriously.

But seeing Wang Yan's sincere regret, it seemed that he really thought so in his heart, not sarcastic Zhao Jie.

But in this way, Zhao Jie only felt more stuffed.

He smiled and said: "It is true that his ability is limited, which allows Chen Xiang to take the lead, I have heard that Lord Wang has a lot of means under his rule, I don't know what is a good way to deal with this matter?" ”

Wang Yan condensed his eyebrows and pondered: "There is no quick effect, if you don't care about the time, there is actually a good way." ”

"Oh?" Zhao Jie sat up slightly and asked, "What's the best way?" ”

Wang Yan said with an upright face: "Pacify the people and persuade the farmers!" ”

Zhao Jie: ......

"The common people, all they want is to live and work in peace and contentment," Wang Yan said with a solemn face: "As long as we have the ability to let them live a good life, don't say that there is only one Yao Shi over there, even if there are ten, they can't be pulled away." ”

Zhao Jie rubbed his forehead, "Lord Wang is serious?" ”

"Of course," Wang Yan asked with a frown, "doesn't General Zhao think what I said is wrong?" ”

"That's right," how did such a mallet grab the position of Jiangling Thorn History, Zhao Jie squeezed and smiled: "Lord Wang." ”

Wang Yan smiled and said, "Then let's start." ”

"What?"

"The handover," Wang Yan said confidently: "Spring ploughing is imminent, after the handover, I will take the people of the Thorn Mansion to count the number of households and divide the fields, we are now late, and if we don't hurry up, we will not be able to catch up with the spring ploughing, if we miss this year's cultivation, then we will have to wait another year to appease the people." ”

Zhao Jie's heart sank, and he looked at Wang Yan inquiringly, did he have a heart or an intention?

But whether intentionally or unintentionally, things are developing towards the side he least wants.

Zhao Jie: Why does he want to be an observer?

Because the observer has military and political power, not only can he control the army, but also manage local affairs, one has power, the other has power and money.

He had already planted a heel in the Jiangnan Observation Envoy, and after the Southern Han Dynasty was defeated, because of regional and historical problems, if he wanted to take over, he had to obey the emperor's order to start from scratch, and he was unwilling to abandon the army he had been operating for many years, so he did not go to fight for the two Guangxi Observation Envoys.

But Gangneung is just right.

Although it is far from Lingzhou here, the army he brought is no more and no less, just enough to guard Jiangling, if the imperial court can set up Jiangling observation envoys here, then he will definitely grab it.

Even if he doesn't set it up, he has to find a way to garrison Jiangling, no matter how good Lingzhou is, it is also the territory of the Lu family, as long as he returns to Lingzhou, he must listen to Lu Zhen, and there will never be a day.

But Gangneung is different, this is the territory he has laid, and he has been operating here for more than two months.

As long as he can be stationed here, even if he can't fully hold the civil affairs in his hands, he will have to intervene at least half of it.

He had received the news before, it was Zhou Cong from Suzhou who came here, he was born in a poor family, he had no backer, he was just right, he was ready to take countermeasures, but he didn't expect to be replaced by Wang Yan halfway.

It is impossible to say that you don't vomit in your heart, but at this time, listening to Wang Yan submit it as soon as he comes up, it is not just as simple as vomiting.

He was full of smiles on his face, but he said a little strongly: "Lord Wang has worked hard all the way, it is better to rest for a few days first, and this handover is not in a hurry." ”

Wang Yan said hurriedly: "How can you not be in a hurry, this spring ploughing can't be delayed, tomorrow I will go to check the household registration under my rule, how can there be time to hand over?" ”

He said: "I also know that General Zhao feels sorry for me, but as an official, I have to be loyal to His Majesty and do my best for the people, even if I am tired and tired, I have to grit my teeth." ”

Wang Ji lowered his head fiercely, almost burst out laughing, if he let his father know that his uncle learned from him like this, he would definitely be so angry that he would jump to his feet.

Zhao Jie smiled slightly, "What Lord Wang said is right, but you also have to take care of your health, there will be more things in Jiangling in the future, what if you fall ill?" It's better to be like this, in recent months, a few of my subordinates have been in charge, and I'll ask them to help count the population and help you organize spring ploughing, and you can rest for two days first. ”

He stretched out his hand and patted Wang Yan's hand, and said with a smile: "I know Lord Wang's heart, but I can't treat my body badly, otherwise I really won't be able to explain to Your Majesty and Old Lord Wang." ”

Wang Yan reluctantly responded.

Zhao Jie picked up the wind and washed the dust for the other party, and sent the person back to the backyard of the Assassin's Mansion before striding away.

The people who came here with Wang Yan were well-trained, put away their luggage, and sent away the idlers and those eyes and ears before entering the main courtyard.

Wang Yancai washed his hair and took a bath, sat cross-legged on the kang with his hair wet and wet, and said to his nephew who was still grinding in the screen: "See, fortunately, it is me who came, if it is the history of the assassination of the week, let alone saving Yao, I am afraid that even the bones and slag can be gnawed." ”

Wang Ji freshened up, came out comfortably, and said: "I see that Zhao Jie is very treacherous, you are afraid that it will be difficult to hand over to him, what should I do?" ”

"You're really stupid when you say you're stupid," Wang Yan turned his head to look at his subordinates who had just pushed the door in, and asked with a smile, "What do you say?" ”

One of them grinned, "The lord is a magistrate, then Zhao Jie is a military attaché, this is not the same in the first place, you want to hand over to Emperor Meng, who has already gone down to Huangquan, where can you use him?" ”

"That's right, Ming'er went directly to see the adjutant of the Assassin's Mansion, so you don't have to listen to his nonsense."

Wang Yan nodded approvingly.

Wang Ji was dumbfounded, "Can you still do this?" Uncle is not afraid that he will impeach you? ”

"What are you impeaching me?" Wang Yan said to him: "Impeach me for managing civil affairs and snatching power from him?" ”

"But he has been operating here for more than two months, and he laid down this Jiangling, and now the people in the Assassin's Mansion are only afraid that many of them are his eyes and ears, although you have a decree, but what is the use of the decree not working?"

"So you're stupid to read," Wang Yan stood on the ground and stretched out his hand to draw a big circle, "Where do you think this piece is?" Cheng'an for a long time, orderly Suzhou? Hmph, this is Gangneung, Gangneung, who has just been subdued after the war, don't listen? If you masturbate it directly, you will go against me again, and you will cut it directly, and the charges are ready-made. ”

Wang Yan snapped his fingers and said, "Disloyal, I want to throw myself into the arms of the Chu State opposite; Thinking of the Meng royal family, he wanted to rebel; Dissatisfied with His Majesty, he bewitched the people and instigated the people to oppose Liang ......"

Wang Ji's mouth opened wide and he was completely speechless.

Wang Yan's eyes flashed with a ghostly light, patted his face and said: "Zhao Jie actually has another way, that is, let me die unexpectedly, my father is a concubine, I am dead, even if the Wang family is angry, it is limited, it's a pity, you are here." ”

Wang Ji's eyes widened.

"So you will look good tomorrow, learn from your second uncle, how elegant and noble you will wear, I will introduce you to General Zhao!"

Wang Ji realized later, "That's why Lord Lin asked me to come?" ”

Wang Yan was happy, looked at him condescendingly and said: "You haven't been stupid yet, you're actually quite smart, but you're inexperienced and shameless enough." ”

Wang Ji accused angrily: "Then you still drive me away on the road, I am your talisman!" ”
