"Master Xu, why are you walking so slowly?"

Chen Liucheng.

Zheng Xiuyan was in Chen Liucheng's mansion and met Xu Huabiao, who left the convoy and came here in advance.

and Lin Yun'er who followed him.

Xu Huabiao also came alone, but Zheng Xiuyan still couldn't hold back this complaint.

"I brought a group of children and a few carts of books, so I naturally walked slowly." Xu Huabiao said to Zheng Xiuyan with a smile, "Anyway, I don't have anything to do when I go back to Luoyang, just walk slowly, and I can see the scenery on the road, which is also good." It's better to read 10,000 books than to travel 10,000 miles! ”

"Lord Xu, you are really ......" Zheng Xiuyan sighed softly, "Xuchang has been in a mess recently, and you still have such leisure and elegance!" ”

"Xuchang chaos? How so? ”

"It's not a matter of the cavalry general Xue Jingqiu!" Zheng Xiuyan took a deep look at Xu Huabiao, "At the beginning of last month, when there was chaos in Xuzhou, Xue Jingqiu wanted to make an accident......

“…… Incident? Just rely on his stinky fish and rotten shrimp to do things? Xu Huabiao smiled absurdly, "It's not like Li Xiuman was pressed to the ground and rubbed every minute!" ”

"Lord Xu, you also underestimate the influence of the Cheqi general." Zheng Xiuyan shook her head a little helplessly.

"What, they killed Li Xiuman?"

"How is that possible!"

"So to speak! If you don't kill Li Xiuman, isn't that a failure! Xu Huabiao spread his hands.

But Xue Jingqiu's daughter cooperated with the chamberlain and almost controlled the Son of Heaven in the palace. As a result, Concubine Park was injured in order to protect His Majesty. ”

“…… Park Guifei is...... Lee so-man's daughter, Park so-young? ”

"Who else could it be!" Zheng Xiuyan sighed softly. "And the injuries are not light."

“…… And then what? ”

"And then? The Son of Heaven was furious and ordered a strict investigation of all those involved in the matter. In the past few days, Xuchang has been beheaded every day. ”

"I mean Park so-young...... Concubine, dead? ”

“…… Are you looking forward to the death of the concubine so much? ”

"Nope! Not at all!! Xu Huabiao immediately shook his head, "Since Concubine Pu Guifei entered the palace, the Son of Heaven has become more and more like the Son of Heaven, this is the blessing of the community and the blessing of the people!" I wish Concubine Pu Guifei would become the queen and the mother of the world...... In this way, everyone has a good life. ”

“…… Lord Xu, do you value Concubine Pu so much? You don't hold a grudge against her for instigating people in the first place......" Zheng Xiuyan said this, and after a pause, she glanced at Lin Yun'er, who was beside Xu Huabiao.

"I'm fine, what's there to hold a grudge against?" Lin Yun'er smiled, "Actually, I really didn't know that Gongzi was going to trouble Xue Jingqiu for this matter at the beginning, I want to know that I would stop him from the beginning." ”

"In that case...... Then for the next period of time, please take care of Concubine Pu more Lord Xu. Zheng Xiuyan nodded and breathed a sigh of relief.

“…… Do I take care of? How do I take care of it? ”

"Concubine Pu was seriously injured by the daughter of Xue Jingqiu, who rebelled, and after Xuchang stabilized her injuries a little, she was sent to Luoyang to ask Luo Yingshi to save her." Zheng Xiuyan explained, "It is estimated that it will ......take months to recover."

"Wait a minute, you can send her over like this? Don't be afraid of the Son of Heaven and ......"

“…… Lord Xu. ”

Zheng Xiuyan interrupted Xu Huabiao's words and glanced to the side.

Xu Huabiao also glanced around.

There are subordinates.

There are a few others as well......

"So, has the matter of Xuchang been settled?" Xu Huabiao directly changed the topic.

"Everything that needs to be dealt with has been dealt with." Zheng Xiuyan also took advantage of the situation to bring the words back.

"The Prime Minister didn't take the opportunity to clean up the dissidents or something, did he?"

“…… The Prime Minister would not do such a thing. ”

"That's good." Xu Huabiao smiled, "I was hated by the Son of Heaven because of Jin Jidong's messing around in Chang'an, and it took several years for him to forgive me. ”

"Of course!" Zheng Xiuyan nodded. "So, this time we are mainly here to beg Lord Xu to sell some horses."

"This ...... It's really not that I don't sell it, and there aren't many military horses in Luoyang. ”

"Lord Xu, you don't have to be polite, I know how many horses you have in Luoyang. I've seen it! ”

"Most of those horses are horses, and some of them are even wounded, so they can't go into battle."

"I only need a thousand."

"I really can't get a thousand war horses." Xu Huabiao looked serious, "I'm a small Luoyang City, what do I want so many war horses to do!" I can't afford to raise it. ”

"Lord Xu laughed, with Luoyang's taxes, don't say that you can raise thousands of horses, even if you raise 20,000 fine horses, it will not be a problem."

"Twenty thousand fine riders?? I dare to open this mouth, and I can drown in Lee Ji-eun's saliva and tears in minutes! Xu Huabiao laughed ridiculously, "I have five hundred cavalry now, is there more?" It's true. ”

“……”

"I've already told General Kwon Yu-ri before." Xu Huabiao glanced at Quan Yuli next to him, "If you are not in a hurry, in two years, I can ask Jin Zhongguo to sell you a thousand military horses, but now, he doesn't have either." ”

“…… So, did Kim Jong Kook really go back to Saiwai to raise horses? ”

"yes!"

"Then he can still pull up another cavalry at any time......

"Falling into the Central Plains, isn't it the second trapped camp?" Xu Huabiao smiled, "When did you rely on the courage of the soldiers to fight?" It's logistics, strategy and resourcefulness! ”

"Lord Xu, do you say that......"

"It's to tell you not to worry about Kim Jong Kook, he is really not interested in the affairs of the Central Plains now. Anyway, when I asked him to buy a horse, he could eat meat and eat meat outside the plug, drink wine and drink, and run horses, and he could run on such a big grassland. I can still help him run a polo tournament every year......"

"What's that?"

"Well, anyway, it's enough for me to let him stay outside the plug in peace and help us raise horses."

"But even if Kim Jong Kook can calm down, it doesn't mean that other people under him ......"

"If there is such a person, I will be promoted to Luoyang, if it is suitable, send it to Xuchang, and help General Li Xiuman lead the troops." Xu Huabiao smiled, "These are not things!" Okay, let's not talk about this, the horse thing, that's it, you can accept it, if you can't...... I can help you think of another idea. ”

"What?"

"If you really lack horses...... Xu Huabiao glanced around, and then lowered his voice: "I can ask Chang'an Taishou Sun Shengwan to help you think of a way." ”

"Sun Shengwan? What horses are there in Chang'an! ”

"Chang'an is not as good as Xiliang!" Xu Huabiao smiled, "Liu Xianhua has captured more than that, there may not be more than a thousand...... It's not impossible. You don't even have to pay for this. ”

"Will Liu Xianhua agree?"

"Seal him a Jincheng Taishou, and give Han Geng a Wuwei Taishou. A thousand horses can't be exchanged? ”

“…… Isn't it a loss to seal it like this? Zheng Xiuyan was speechless.

"Takeshi Kaneshiro is not under His Majesty's control now, right?" Xu Huabiao smiled, "Let Liu Xianhua fight down by himself and be a guard by himself, is there anything wrong?" ”

“…… That's right, too. Zheng Xiuyan also smiled, "Sure enough, these things, Lord Xu, your brain is spinning fast!" ”

"What's fast, it's just that I've thought about it a lot and thought about it for a long time." Xu Huabiao put away his smile and said seriously, "I've been thinking about this since I was about to enter Chang'an at the beginning of this year. ”

"Thinking about how to get a horse from Xiliang?"

"No, thinking about how to face Li Yanhao." Xu Huabiao shook his head, "If you don't defeat Li Yanhao, the Son of Heaven is not the Son of Heaven, the court is not the court, and the Duke of Zhou can't be the Duke of Zhou." So all the tricks that can be used against Li Yanhao, I have thought about it, this is one of them. ”

“…… Thank you, Mr. Xu. ”

"You're welcome. I have to thank you for defeating Li Yanhao. Xu Huabiao nodded, and then suddenly remembered something, took out a cloth roll from his arms, and stuffed it to Zheng Xiuyan.

"What is this?" Zheng Xiuyan, who took the cloth roll, was stunned.

"Oh, this time I'm going back to Luoyang, and I don't think I will come to Xuchang again in a short time. Even...... Well, maybe I won't go to Xuchang in the future. Xu Huabiao waved his hand, "If Li Yanhao comes, Xuchang will definitely be chaotic, and I will definitely not go to the court to speak for Li Xiuman, this thing is what Li Yanhao took out when he led the army to attack, and there was a mess in the court, and even Li Xiuman himself was panicked, and you can show it to Li Xiuman when the time comes." ”

“…… What is it? Tactics to defeat Lee Yeon-ho? ”

"I'm not a god!" Xu Huabiao smiled, "Tactics are ever-changing, I can think of it now, Li Xiuman still supports you and your sister...... Ah no, what are you raising your niece for? This is a letter to cheer him on, well, it's called ten wins and ten defeats, and it's similar in nature to what I wrote in Jianghuai to scold Kim Kwang-so. ”

“…… This kind of thing ......"

"When I look back, Li Yanhao will definitely find someone to write something to scold Li Xiuman, fight! Everyone wants to destroy the morale of others and grow their own prestige. This thing written by Joo Hyun is still pretty good, so let's use it. ”

"This is written by Bae Joo-hyun?" Zheng Xiuyan was stunned again.

"Oh, I supervised her writing. Her first author, my second author...... Ahem, well, it doesn't matter, she wrote it anyway, and I didn't plan to take credit from her. But what is inside, I approve of it. ”

“…… This will be shown to the Prime Minister when the time comes? ”

"Well, you can take a look first, but don't give Li Xiuman first."

“…… Why? ”

"Li Xiuman, you don't know that person, say it is good, true temperament, say it is ugly, go with the wind and waves...... Oh, it's not enough to vote, and when the wind is headwind, there are all kinds of reasons to shake the pot. You showed him in advance, in case he really felt that he was invincible and the embodiment of justice, and took the initiative to provoke Li Yanhao...... Don't blame me for not helping him then. ”

"Probably not, right?" Zheng Xiuyan was a little weak when she said this.

Lee so-man......

Well, that's a real possibility.

"Alright, so be it, I...... Let's go back to Luoyang first. Xu Huabiao waved his hand and said to Zheng Xiuyan, "Really, having a princess is enough for Luoyang to have a headache, and another concubine ......."

“……”

Zheng Xiuyan smiled and shook her head.

However, the mood is much better.

Li Yanhao...... The lord's biggest rival is also his best friend......

Well, maybe it's time for a fight!
