Chapter 203: Yin and Yang: Miscellaneous Matters along the River (2)

It was said that it would not disturb the people, but the news that the emperor's ship sailed to Yuezhou to dock still spread all over Yuezhou City, and the hospitality of the people of Yuezhou had exceeded Meng Yan's expectations.

The next day, the wharf was already surrounded by water, and Gu Qingfeng's wind chill had to get better, Gu Qingfeng issued an edict after breakfast on the second day to summon the families of officials above the provincial level in Yuezhou City to listen to the ginseng, Meng Yan did not have the patience to come out of these things.

"You also hurry up and get up, just now Yanlan came over and said that Hu Shuai came to accompany you for lunch, and Lord Tu Shan arranged it in the parade building." Gu Qingfeng felt that his body was about to fall apart, and he also sighed in his heart for the hospitality of the people of Yuezhou.

"The parade building is not bad, the lake and mountain scenery of Dongting can be seen in full view, and Tu Xiyuan has a good eye." Meng Yan said lazily.

Gu Qingfeng was really too lazy to care about him, a large group of people were waiting for her reception, all the people couldn't miss the time, and hurriedly led a group of minions to get off the boat, Gu Qingfeng deliberately arranged Yuezhou's commander Shang Jing's wife Yu Pingniang and Tu Xiyuan's wife Gao Jinxiu on both sides of him, one is to highlight the status, and the other is to inform the people that these two future representatives of the face of Yuezhou women.

"Ping Niang, are there many family members of the soldiers in the army?" Gu Qingfeng looked at the person and said.

"Yu Niangniang, there are not many dependents in the army, and the army is full of real men, we have declared that the military rules are strict, they don't dare to come nonsense, the concubine and the concubine once joked with the concubine that the army is afraid of the inside." Yu Pingniang said with a smile, and at a glance, she knew that she was a woman who was good at human-computer communication.

On the other side, Gao Jinxiu was nervous, she was the daughter of a merchant, and she was already Gao Pan to marry Tu Shanyuan, and now she was asked to accompany the queen mother, and her nervous palms were sweating all the time.

When she was cramped, Gu Qingfeng gently grabbed her hand and said softly: "Jinxiu, you are the wife of the governor of Yuezhou, and the female officials of Yuezhou City will only look forward to you in the future, so don't be nervous." ”

"Yes! Mrs. Gao, if there is anything you need my help with, you can send someone to the camp to call me. "Yu Pingniang should be harmonious, the military and political families are separated, and the commander of Yuezhou is at the same level as the governor of Yuezhou, but the governor of Yuezhou is also the general of the Changsha General's Mansion, so it is necessary for the two to have a good relationship.

Gu Qingfeng said with a smile: "Splendid, Ping Niang, Yuezhou City is different from other places, His Majesty intends to set up a water division in Dongting, Yuezhou is a north-south key point, east and west passes, the future status must not be weaker than Changsha and Jiangxia, the two of you and the wife of the future sailor general are the faΓ§ade of Yuezhou, work together with your husband, and confidant with the people, their men are up to the sky, and we women are going to stand on the ground, understand?" ”

Both of them were respectful and said: "Niangniang, the concubine respectfully obeys Yi's will!" The two of them were very excited in both their voices and expressions, and they dared not do their best to be entrusted with a heavy task by the queen for many lifetimes.

In a few words, he subdued the backyard where one party was stationed, these things were too easy for Gu Qingfeng.

Meng Yan looked at a large group of people not far away who saluted Gu Qingfeng and knew that the queen mother had already taken care of those women, not disturbing their good mood, she still had something important to do, and Hu Shuai was coming.

Yu Geng's face is full of red light, full of pride, although it is gray hair and beard, but it does not affect his domineering, Yu Geng's killing breath has become heavier over the years, but he obviously feels a lot more restrained, only Yu Geng is the only one who is still commanding the troops outside the army with the position of marshal in the Great Xuan Dynasty, and it is also because of Yu Geng's sitting, the southern border has been stable, maybe others don't know Yu Geng enough, but Zhong Roulan understands, and Tang Yuan, the first person in the Great Chu Army, is even more familiar with Yu Geng.

"Tiger, can you still eat?!" Meng Yan was in a happy mood and joked.

"Hahaha! Does Your Majesty think Yu Laohu is old? The five-stone bow is correct! Yu Geng knew that Meng Yan was joking with him, and he hadn't seen him for many years, but His Majesty still treated the brothers in the army as before, how could Yu Geng not be excited.

Meng Yan pulled Yu Geng to sit down, there was nothing else in front of him, one person, one jar of wine, and one roasted whole sheep was enough!

Meng Yan's amount of food was not as good as before, and he took a special dagger made in the army to remove meat for Yu Geng, and said, "Tiger, what do you think of the southern border?" Rong Gui or Jiuchen? ”

Yu Geng took the meat from Meng Yan's hand and ate it in a big bite, and said: "Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that Jiang You may be better, but if Zhong Sanniang is forced to Jiuchen and Rong Gui, the old minister is also worried that the three sisters will get together again." ”

"Tiger, you say in my heart, the area north of the river is likely to be Xiao Yu's territory in the future, Jiang You is indeed more important than Rong Gui and Jiuchen, but Jiang You doesn't mean to take it! If we get stuck in the quagmire on the right side of the river, we will most likely be dragged there. ”

Yu Geng thought for a while and said: "Your Majesty, the old minister doesn't know how to think about this matter, Daning monopolizes the north of the river and basically doesn't run, if we can't take Jiangyou, the old three-legged situation will be formed in the future, so the old minister still insists on solving Jiangyou!" ”

Meng Yan did not reply immediately, this matter is too big, it is not something that the two of them can decide, Santai, the cabinet, the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, and the two major marshals of the Tiger and the Divine Eagle must all participate in it, and the overthrow of Jiangyou is equivalent to the overthrow of a country, and the two marshals' mansions are stretched thin when they march at the same time.

"Tiger, after the matter of Yuanzhou is resolved, you will explain the military affairs and return to Chengdu, one is to agree on our military direction, and the other is to take a look at those old brothers, Qingshuai's body, alas..." Mentioning Chen Zhiqing Meng Yan couldn't help but feel sad, after returning from Kaifeng, he wanted to make some arrangements in Nanyang, but suddenly he fell ill and had to send Shi Zun to take over Nanyang.

Yu Geng recalled the days when he fought side by side in the past, and he couldn't help but sigh: "Your Majesty is right, I should go back and see, the children have grown up, and the war in Yuanzhou is just a few days, let Deng Ang go to preside over the Shuai Mansion, and the old minister will go with His Majesty's mother, and I have to ask Niangniang to find a good family for the two children." ”

Meng Yan patted Yu Geng's shoulder and said, "Okay! When you got on the boat, there were people drinking and talking, and Yanlan's kid came from wood like An Cang. ”

"Your Majesty! You can't change the commander of the internal guard, one An Cang is enough, if you really can't bear it, you might as well transfer Yanlan to the old minister's army. ”

"You! Talents like An Cang and Yan Lan are suitable for being in charge of the internal guard, they seem to be unreasonable, but in fact, they have an internal show, Chengdu is in their hands, and we can sleep peacefully. Meng Yan knew that Yu Geng was joking, but from Yu Geng, he also understood how much the people in the army hated An Cang and Yan Lan.

The two of them drank four jars of wine and a sheep for lunch, this is a lunch, in Yu Geng's laughter, Yanlan carried Meng Yan back to the inner cabin, his eyes were full of complaints, dare to drink His Majesty like this, except for Ye Shuai, who is such a rude tiger handsome, he is a real tiger!

In the early morning of the next day, Meng Yan summoned officials from all over Yuezhou in Yuezhou City as usual, as the emperor he was very satisfied, most of the officials from the county order to the state capital came from the two courts, which was the result of many years of education.

Deng Ang hurried over from the battlefield of Yuanzhou, and after meeting Meng Yan, he hurriedly handed over the mahogany military talisman to Yu Geng, which was a symbol of mobilizing the army of the Tiger Marshal's Mansion, and Deng Ang did not dare to be careless.

Looking at Deng Ang's figure, Yu Geng said with a smile: "Your Majesty, this kid is far from his old man!" ”

"Hahaha! You elders have all fought on the battlefield, even Deng Gang has not been tossed on the battlefield back then, Deng Ang is good, and the tiger doesn't have to be too harsh. ”

"It's not that the old minister is not at ease, the war in Yuanzhou is just the beginning, Zhong Sanniang will definitely take action, they are still a little tender to deal with Tangyuan and Zhong Fan, I have asked Zheng Xi to rush back to Changsha in the next few days." Yu Geng seems to be arrogant, but he is actually very uneasy.

Meng Yan nodded and whispered, "Tiger, do you think these boys can cause me something?" ”

Yu Geng was stunned...

The trip to Yuezhou was smooth and successful, and Yu Geng, as the highest-ranking person in the fleet, naturally took over the power of the garrison, and as for Yan Lan, he could only take a back seat, and the mighty fleet sailed towards Yiling.

Yiling, since ancient times, the waterway to rush, the military town, although Meng Huan has been stationed in Hanzhong for a long time, but nominally the Dongchuan General's Mansion is still his, and the emperor will naturally receive it in person.

"Brother Meng Huan respectfully Your Majesty, the queen mother came to Yiling to inspect!" Meng Huan has never lost anything in etiquette.

"Get up, your own brother is not a hypocrisy." Meng Yan responded lightly.

Yu Geng, who was standing on the side, kept squeezing his eyebrows and making eyes at Meng Huan, this powerful Yu Tiger in the southwest seems to have lived out his youth recently, since he boarded the ship, he has been holding a halberd every day to act as Meng Yan's personal guard, and Meng Yan is too lazy to care about him.

After entering the mansion, Meng Yan suddenly turned around and kicked Meng Huan, who was kicking, and retreated again and again, only to see Meng Yan say angrily: "Who asked you to come back?" Is there something unsavvy you don't want me to know?! ”

Meng Huan rubbed his legs and said aggrievedly: "I just knew that you came back when you came to the courtier!" ”

"Say! What's going on here, you can't even do it with the king of Hanzhong! ”

Meng Huan didn't care about his image, sat on the ground and said: "Brother Huang, the people here want to open the waterway, and it has reached the point of asking the people to revolt!" ”

Meng Yan knew that there was a problem with Yiling, and passing by here was also to solve this problem, but the "uprising" was unacceptable, and I am afraid that only Yiling had such an unbelievable situation in the entire Daxuan hinterland.

"Because of the contradiction in Dongchuan?" Meng Yan asked, frowning.

Meng Huan nodded, "Yes, Fuling is the gateway to Chengdu, the land of Longxing, or an important town, the imperial court is naturally more biased towards Dongchuan, Yiling and Shangyong were originally the old places of the Tushan clan, and later as the rear to support Jiangxia and Hanzhong, it has indeed been a little bitter over the years, but the courtiers think that even so, most of the people are loyal to the imperial court, and the 'uprising' is not simple." ”

Meng Yan probably knows the problem, "Zhu Yan", they must be making a hindrance from it, these people are too disgusting, during the Xijing Rebellion, Ming Jiansi also suffered from their blame, which caused Xijing to bleed too much, coupled with the Xiaogushan incident, the assassination of his father, etc., pen and blood debt, Meng Yan and Gu Yanfeng have not stopped tracking them down in recent years, but they are like the wind, and they rarely leave useful traces.

"! What does it look like! Your will to be promoted to the king of Qin is in your imperial sister-in-law, prepare well for your canonization ceremony, you don't have to worry about Yiling, give me good training in Hanzhong! ”

"Brother Huang, do you want to use troops against Longyou or Guanzhong?" Meng Huan was not aggrieved anymore, and the excitement of Prince Jin Feng could not satisfy his desire to go on the expedition.
