Someone hiding in the shadows?

Fusu's expression moved: "What the teacher said is that Jingyangjun who came from Xianyang City but never showed up?" ”

Chen Ke nodded slightly, he put his hands behind his back, and looked at the fish in the pond.

"Not bad."

"Hu Chuanjun is just a stupid, short-sighted and cowardly person."

"I even feel that many things are not his handiwork, maybe they have been hinted at or lured by someone to do this kind of thing."

"A stupid person is not terrible, and a stupid and cowardly person who is afraid of death is even less terrible."

"The scary is a smart, hidden, and perhaps ruthless man."

Chen Ke turned his head and suddenly smiled: "However, you don't have to care too much about Jingyangjun, Your Majesty must already have an idea." ”

He looked at Huo Shi and Huo Zhen who were standing on the side and said, "You can rest assured." ”

"Since I know that Ying Yuan will kill Fang Cong in advance, how can I not save him?"

"If nothing else, Fang Cong should already be in the governor's prison."

Chen Ke looked not far away, his eyes were slightly lowered, like a crow's tail feathers covering his eyes.

"Two days ago, I received a decree from His Majesty that I should return to the capital before sunset."

"It seems that Feng Zheng, who went to the Western Regions, has returned to Beijing, and he has brought back a lot of good things, which is a big event for Daqin and a happy event."

"It's also a good thing for us in Penglaizhou."

"If those things want to be promoted, they must be promoted in Penglaizhou as soon as possible."

"This is also the benefit that Penglaizhou can get as a "pilot".

"There are a lot of new things that Daqin doesn't have, and after taking them from the outside, if you want to conduct large-scale experiments, you must find a place."

"There are risks and opportunities in this."

Chen Ke turned his head, looked at Huo Shi who was standing on the side and said, "Huo Shi, do you know how to choose the risks and opportunities?" ”

Huo Shi bowed slightly.

He still knows these things well, there is no risk and no benefit, how can someone in the world send you countless money out of thin air?

It's impossible.

Often there are things that really have empty white teeth that will take advantage of you, and you will pay a hundred times the price after that.

"Risks and opportunities coexist, and even the greater the risk, the greater the opportunity."

"The Governor is a man who is good at gambling, but in fact, the lower officials are not."

"So if it's a lower official, he will probably control this risk, even if he gives something to the surrounding states, he won't touch it."

Chen Ke nodded, he was still quite satisfied with Huo Shi's answer.

He will stay in Penglaizhou for a few years, and in these years, he will bring countless benefits to Penglaizhou, and there is no risk behind these benefits.

Because Chen Ke will judge.

This is what the past 2,000 years of suffering have brought him, and it has not come without cost.

After he left, Peng Laizhou, who had swallowed so many things at once, was not suitable for continuing to gamble.

He needs to digest it quietly and slowly.

This is also one of the reasons why Chen Ke will vaguely choose Huo Shi as the heir to cultivate.

Because he needed a very calm and even conservative man to be the governor and protect the things and benefits he brings.

And the time for a governor to serve as a local governor must not be too long.

That's six years at most.

The first year is given time for these governors to adapt to the policies of their predecessors, to adapt to the local environment, and to develop new policies.

The next five years were just enough for the implementation of a five-year plan.

Five years is not enough time for the ancient Qin to implement too many new things, but it is enough.

Xianyang City

In the clan house

Childe Hui sat there with a chessboard in front of him, and countless chess pieces fell on the chessboard.

The chess game is complicated, and even Gongzi Hui, who is extremely good at games, feels a little at a loss when he sees this chess game.

"Ugh."

"The right time, place, and people don't have it, but I don't know when those people will be able to figure this out?"

"If you're too obsessed with power, you'll bury everything you have in it."

He shook his head, looked at Ziying who was sitting beside him and observed the chess game, and said, "Ziying, what do you think of the current situation today?" ”

Ziying sat there, upright, like an old-fashioned old master.

"Uncle Qi, grandson feels that the situation today is on the two of them."

"These two people are at the heart of today's change."

"One of them is Your Majesty."

"The second is Chen Ke, the governor of Fengchang, Zhongmu County, and Penglaizhou."

"Your Majesty is the Divine Needle of the Sea, and all changes are fixed in place, so that these storms and clouds will not be able to infringe on Daqin in the slightest."

"And Chen Fengchang is the wind and cloud itself, he is endlessly changing, bringing endless fresh affairs to Daqin."

Gongzi Hui glanced at Ziying, with satisfaction and curiosity in her eyebrows.

"Oh? How do you see it? ”

"Then what do you think of Chen Ke?"

Ziying was slightly silent for a moment before sighing.

"Actually, my grandson can't understand this person, he is too changeable."

"But one thing is certain, Chen Ke is gradually changing Daqin, and even with the speed and change of Daqin's acceptance, his "law change" measures will definitely be more and more, faster and faster."

"When he just arrived in Daqin, it only took him a year and a half to use printing and papermaking."

"And now it's a year and a half, but he has already taken out measures such as "state", "local official system", "small officials", "local hundred family palaces", "people as officials", "nine official systems" and so on.

"Some of these measures are still being implemented, and some are still in the bud."

"And these are actually related to the most basic court structure, and Sun Er feels that he is shaping a skeleton for Daqin."

"Once these skeletons are installed, he may have to shape the ribs."

"After the tendons, then there is the flesh, and then there are the appearances."

"The further back you go, the faster this Governor Chen will become, leaving us who are still obsessed with the past far behind."

Gongzi Hui looked at Ziying who was sitting there with an embarrassed face, and sighed slightly.

"Those people in the clan can't even see clearly as a child like you, it's really heart-wrenching."

He stretched out his hand and stroked Ziying's head, and then said softly: "You must not forget today's events, if I am gone one day, then it will be your turn to control the big ship of the Clan Mansion." ”

Ziying sat up straight, and then bowed slightly, with some childish eyes, full of responsibility and solemnity.

At this point he was no longer a child.

"I will definitely not live up to my uncle's trust."

Childe Hui smiled with relief, and then looked at the rotten room in the distance.

It was the burial place he had prepared for himself in advance.

Now he could feel the rotten aura of that room more and more, and the closer a person got to death, the more he could feel the rotten breath.

The child next to him often went to play in that room, and no one around him smelled the rotten smell of that room.

He was the only one who could smell it.

He slowly closed his eyes, those clans who don't know gratitude, how many days can he still bless these people?

One month? Two months? Or is it half a year? A year?

Doge's Palace

The back door of the Governor's Mansion ushered in a guest today that surprised both Chen Ke and Fusu.

Dream of Victory.

Yingmeng was wearing dirty clothes, looking tattered all over her body, and her face was pitch black, as if she had been smeared with something on purpose.

The clothes are also very dirty.

If she wanted to get to the Doge's Palace unobtrusively, she had to pass through a slum.

But it was the place where the woman died.

So Yingmeng can only do this, making himself extremely dirty, and even smelling foul all over his body.

Although before meeting Chen Ke, she had already washed herself.

But that smell is not easy to be cleaned clearly.

Chen Ke picked up the teacup, which was a porcelain specially fired for him by those idle craftsmen.

It's just ordinary porcelain, and it doesn't look beautiful, and it's even a little rough.

Standard celadon and white porcelain were still supplied exclusively to the royal family, and by the time the craftsmen could figure out how to control the method, perhaps white and celadon would reappear in the homes of ordinary people.

After all, white and cyan are very common colors.

"You said you were the daughter of Hu Chuanjun, so what are you doing here?"

Ying Meng looked at Chen Ke with firmness on her face: "I can do what the governor wants, and I want the governor to raise his noble hand and save my life." ”

Chen Kewan smiled: "What does the governor want?" ”

"Tell me, what does the Doge want?"

Ying Meng said without the slightest hesitation: "Three things." ”

"First, I have tangible evidence that Hu Chuanjun won the plot of rebellion in Penglaizhou, and I have a list of henchmen who corresponded and colluded with him within the imperial court."

"Second, what Jingyang Jun has been doing recently."

"The third ....."

Ying Meng stared at Chen Ke's eyes, as if she wanted to see longing in his eyes.

"Two days ago, a notice was posted at the gate of the city saying that we were looking for a black, burning stone."

"I know of two places where these things are available."

There was a slight panic in her eyes: "I am willing to sacrifice all three of these things to the Governor, just that the Governor can save my life." ”

Chen Ke raised his eyebrows slightly, he looked at Ying Meng and said, "Don't you want to use these things in exchange for me to protect you?" ”

"You know, these things that you have at your disposal, especially the last one, are the kind of needs that I need, even burn my eyebrows."

Ying Meng is very calm.

"I don't know the value of these things, and I don't know your desire for them."

"But I know that if you want to protect me, it's just a matter of words."

"Also, I already know your character, you are not the one who will take something and then talk back, and you will even feel guilty for not giving me enough reports."

"In that case, why should I exchange it with you, instead of giving it to you, and then begging you?"

"It's not an exchange, it's a request."

"I don't have the ability to threaten you with these things, because now I only have you as a lifesaver in front of me."

Chen Ke nodded and looked at the people around him.

Then he said, "Yes." ”

"Tell me where you know the coal mine."

"Then tell me how you want me to save your life."

Yingmeng immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed, is she finally going to escape from that demon cave?

Immediately, he said very simply and without the slightest hesitation: "One of them is on a mountain thirty miles outside Linzi County, and the title deed is in my hands. ”

"The other is somewhere at the foot of a mountain in Jiaodong County."

"I bought these two places for myself, and I want to settle myself when I escape."

"Later, when I was building a house there, I stumbled upon this kind of thing, which I didn't know at the time."

"I didn't see it in your bulletin until two days ago, you need both of these things."

She took out the title deed from her sleeve, put it in her hand, held it up with both hands, and said, "This thing is dedicated to the governor, to the court, and to Your Majesty." ”

Chen Ke raised his chin slightly, and Fusu walked to Yingmeng's side and took the title deed.

He looked at Yingmeng and said, "Tell me, how do you want Bendu to save you?" ”

........

Linzi County coast.

It's very flat, like an ordinary coast, but it's a little unusual that big ships come from afar, sailing here.

The surrounding officers and soldiers had already discovered the matter.

Huo Shi, the county guard of Linzi County, personally came here with soldiers to guard here, looking at the ships that were getting closer and closer in the distance, with caution in his eyes.

The ship's procession was already able to see a prototype, and it was a very large team, like a giant beast in the sea.

Where did the behemoth come from, and what purpose did it take?

What kind of impact will it have on Daqin?

As the fog in the distance gradually dissipated, as the big ship gradually approached, the big ship also revealed its hideous true face.

Huo Shi was a little stunned when he looked at this face, how could this ship be so similar to the ship he had seen when he was studying in Baijia Palace?

A memory that he had forgotten came to mind, and the figure of a man appeared in his mind.

He immediately turned his head decisively, looked at the soldiers beside him and said, "Go to the Governor's Mansion immediately to report to the Governor, and say that the Xu envoy who went to sea two years ago has returned!" ”

"It's on the shore now, and it's about to come ashore!"

"Please, Governor, decide!"

Although the soldier didn't know who the "Xu Envoy Order" was, he could hear the solemnity in Huo Shi's tone, and immediately ran in the direction of the Governor's Palace.

And at this time, at sea.

on the boat.

Xu Fu looked at the familiar landscapes, familiar places, familiar villages, and familiar trees in the distance.

Everything was familiar to him.

At this moment, even the ethereal air around him seemed to be familiar to him.

The soldiers around him didn't react much better than him, and they all wept silently as they looked at the distant scene.

I have been away from my hometown for almost two years, and I have been floating on the sea, looking at the endless blue.

They almost had a heart breakdown.

Now, they have returned home!
