Chapter 308: Divide and Pull Together, Half of the State's Power
Li Xuan stood on the dock, with his hands behind his back, on the long pole behind him, the pennant was basking in the sun, and the purple five pythons were under the five chapters, and he was mighty, not angry.
The many Wuzhou subordinates standing in front of him couldn't help but bow slightly.
Zhang Yi, who joined the army, stood behind Li Xuan, his face was already as cold as water.
What Li Xuan is doing now is obviously not taking his record of joining the army in his eyes at all, but he has no way to do it.
Li Xuan is a Wuzhou driver under the fifth grade, and even Wuzhou Sima is just an official rank under the sixth grade, and he is even farther away from joining the army from the sixth grade.
Don't drive the power of Banzhou, if you put it on them, don't drive it is just a false position, but on Li Xuan, the king of the county, and at this sensitive time, the emperor's trust in him is self-evident.
At this time, who dares to touch Li Xuan's tiger whiskers easily,
Zhang Yi's gaze swept over the group of Liu Cao soldiers wearing light green seven-rank official uniforms and respectful faces, and his face couldn't help but sink.
At this time, Li Xuan suddenly snorted coldly: "Where is Cangcao joining the army?"
"Xiaguan Cangcao joined the army, and Li Yuanyi has seen the king!" As soon as Li Yuan spoke, Li Xuan's brows couldn't help but raise.
"It turned out to be a child of the clan." Li Xuan nodded slightly suddenly, and then his face turned grim, and he said: "Order you to close the doors of the various warehouses, without the warrants of the king's assassination, this king, and Qin Sima, you must not arbitrarily transfer a soldier or a grain from Cangcao, and this king will personally inspect each warehouse tomorrow afternoon."
"The Lower Officials obey the order." Li Yuanyi responded without any hesitation.
Li Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, until now, he hadn't seen the names of the Tianyin Sect members from the heads of anyone present.
Hu Cao, Gong Cao, Cang Cao, these people are either Wang Fanglan's Hedong fellow countrymen, or Wang clansmen, or the current dynasty clan, these people alone are enough for Wang Fanglan to control half of the real power in the entire Wuzhou.
"Facao can join the army!" Li Xuan's voice became slightly softer.
"Back to the prince, Fa Cao joined the army today and went out with Qin Sima to investigate the case, and he has not returned for the time being." A tall, bearded man, dressed in fish-scale armor, stood from one side and stood with his hands bowed.
"Who are you?" Li Xuan's eyes were faint, looking up and down at the person in front of him.
"The next officer and soldier Cao joined the army, and Yan Tao has seen the prince!" Yan Tao looked at Li Xuan with a serious expression, carefully staring at the slightest change in Li Xuan's face.
"So you're Bing Cao joining the army?" Li Xuan looked at Yan Tao in some surprise.
"It's Xiaguan!" Yan Tao knew that Li Xuan did it on purpose, but he still stood calmly in place.
"Although it is Fa Cao's business to picket against the party, Bing Cao should also give appropriate assistance." Li Xuan looked at Yan Tao, glanced at the top of his head, and then said, "This official orders you, from today onwards, increase the number of patrols in Wuzhou City until the end of this summer harvest, there must be no mistakes!"
"The Commander obeys!" Yan Tao let out a long sigh of relief.
Li Xuan's willingness to give him an order shows that Li Xuan still trusts him for the time being, which makes Yan Tao's whole heart let go all of a sudden.
Two months ago, after the assassination of the assassin Wang Fang Scale, the entire state city of Wuzhou was about to be overturned, but even so, they still did not find the slightest trace of the Tianyin Sect's traitors. Z.br>
There are two people who have heavy responsibilities, one of them is Fa Cao joining the army He Zheng, and the other is Bing Cao joining the army Yan Tao.
In the past two months, both He Zheng and Yan Tao have been trying their best to search for traces of the Tianyin Sect assassins in the whole city, but even if they have reached this point, they still have found nothing.
Li Xuan nodded slightly, looked at the fifty-year-old man standing on the side with a fluttering beard, and asked in a low voice, "Presumably Your Excellency is Shi Cao joining the army!"
"Shi Cao joined the army Feng Hua and met the king of the county!" Feng Hua arched his hand solemnly at Li Xuan.
Li Xuan nodded and said, "Shi Cao joined the army, took charge of Hejin and built bridges, Yuyu and other things, Feng joined the army hard, and please send the map of the waterway and bridge in Wuzhou to this king tomorrow, and this king will ask for advice one by one tomorrow!"
"Don't dare!" Feng Hua's face was slightly solemn, and then he retreated, and his eyes subconsciously swept over Zhang Yi, who had joined the army behind Li Xuan.
Zhang Yi noticed Feng Hua's gaze and nodded slightly, and at the whole time, Li Xuan also turned to look at Zhang Yi, and said in a gentle voice: "Zhang joins the army, now introduce some other officials and squires and elders in this state to this king."
"Dare to disobey!" Zhang Yi gave up his hand with a bitter voice, he didn't expect that just a few words, Li Xuan had already attracted more than half of the real power in the entire Wuzhou to join the army.
At the moment, when the assassin Wang Fang was seriously injured and Sima Qinming went out to investigate the case, the new arrival Li Xuan became the actual leader of the entire Wuzhou City.
It's like he's the master.
"This is Tang Jun, the state teacher!" Zhang Yi stretched out his hand and pointed to an elegant forty-year-old man wearing a light green official robe.
"Tang Jun has seen don't drive!" Sect Tang Jun bowed his hand slightly to Li Xuan.
"I've seen the Tang Sect!" Li Xuan stretched out his hand to return the salute to Tang Jun, and Zhang Yi's face on the side of this scene changed slightly.
After going ashore, Li Xuan returned the salute for the first time, although it was just a teaching from Tang Jun, but it was full of deep meaning.
Li Xuan turned his head, looked at Yu Ze behind him, and said with a smile, "Sect Tang and Yu Xiuzhu are old friends, so you have to move around more in the future!"
Tang Jun looked up at Yu Ze, with a nostalgic smile on his face, and arched his hand and said, "Brother Guanzhong, it's been a long time!"
"Brother Sichi, see you for a long time!" Yu Ze returned the salute with a gentle face.
The expressions of the people who saw this scene changed even more.
Li Xuan not only easily co-opted the various forces left by Wang Fanglan, but even he already had his own connections in Wuzhou itself, which was quite difficult to provoke.
With Tang Jun here, Li Xuan quickly got to know more low-level officials in Wuzhou, which also made it easier for them to accept Li Xuan.
"This is Shen Lao, the father of Shen Thorn Shi in Changzhou!" Tang Jun respectfully introduced to Li Xuan a sixty-year-old white-haired man Shen Tuo wearing a scarlet brocade robe.
"Old Shen Tuo has seen the king of Nanchang County!" Shen Tuo's face was gentle and he bowed his hand slightly to Li Xuan.
Li Xuan hurriedly got out of the way, and at the same time saluted: "Seniors, don't bother the juniors, a few days ago, Xiao Wang also went to Changzhou to visit Shen Tingshi, and there is also Shen Tingshi here who brought a letter from the juniors."
Seeing this letter, Shen Tuo's eyebrows relaxed a lot.
He was afraid that Li Xuan would take this letter to him in private, which showed that Li Xuan needed his help with something very difficult.
On the contrary, it is now that he takes it out in public, which makes him most relaxed.
Because at this time, it is the letter that makes people see that there is the letter that plays the greatest role.
Shen Tuo straightened up slightly, pressed the cane with one hand, took the letter with the other, and said at the same time: "If the prince has any difficulties in the future, he can go straight to the old mansion of the Shen family to find the old man, and the old man will never refuse."
"Then thank you Shen Lao!" Li Xuan bowed heavily.
The other people around saw this scene, and their faces were slightly solemn.
The Shen family is the head of the four major families in Wuzhou, one of the five of the sixteen families in Wuzhou, and has children in various places and has a developed career.
Now the highest official position is Shen Qian, the assassin of Changzhou.
His father, Shen Tuo, also served as a governor in his early years, a scholarly family, and an official family.
With the Shen family in front, the Yang family, the Teng family, and the Qian family were all polite to Li Xuan.
Yang came from a dashing fifty-year-old man named Yang Yan, who died of illness in his early years, and now educates the younger generations in the family.
Teng's came to be younger, around forty, serving as a teacher in Xuanzhou, and recently because the old man in the family passed away, he came back for the New Year to mourn.
Finally, there is the Qian family, the daughter of the Qian family married the king of Yue as a side concubine, and the momentum in Wuzhou has been huge in recent years, and there is a tendency to close the three major families.
The Qian family is a middle-aged man in his early thirties, wearing a cyan robe, looking very free.
"Lord, if there is anything you need to serve
Please be blunt, there was a letter from the Yue King's Mansion a few days ago, urging him to do his best to assist the king." Qian Zhe was unusually respectful to Li Xuan.
Li Xuan stretched out his hand and patted Qian Zhe's arm, and said with a faint smile: "Before this king left Luoyang, he had a conversation with Brother Yue, this time, the crisis is hidden, he has strictly ordered the palace to be cautious and self-conscious, if Brother Qian is flawed, you might as well communicate with the palace more."
Qian Zhe was slightly stunned, and then solemnly arched his hand: "Thank you for the reminder, keep it in mind."
Li Xuan turned to look at the others, his hands were slightly raised, his eyes were slightly dark, and his powerful aura immediately burst out.
"Everyone, please also remember that if the murderer of the king's assassination cannot be found, someone will be in danger one day, and this is the case with this king, and the same is true for you, please be careful." Li Xuan sincerely bowed his hand to everyone present, and everyone immediately returned the salute, but unconsciously, their memories were immediately pulled back to the storm two months ago.
There are so many things that a simple letter of fold can't carry.
On that day, the entire city of Wuzhou was turned upside down by officers and soldiers, whether it was a family or a civilian, no one missed it.
I don't know how many conflicts and fights took place in the middle, and everything is difficult to count.
But even so, the assassins of the Tianyin Sect were still not found, but there were countless thieves, bandits, and unseen thieves who were caught and killed.
Anyway, since then, there have been a lot fewer public security incidents in Wuzhou City.
But if you let people go back to that stormy night, absolutely no one wants to.
Li Xuan turned to look at Zhang Yi, who had joined the army, and said with a difficult and gentle attitude: "Zhang joined the army, now that the assassin is seriously injured, Sima is outside, I hope you can help this king a lot, and guide the Wuzhou government affairs back to regular as soon as possible!"
"The lower officials will do their best." Zhang Yi gave his hand to Li Xuan seriously.
Li Xuan nodded with satisfaction, and at this time, Qian Zhe suddenly said to Li Xuan: "Lord Wang, the family has prepared a banquet for the prince in Siming Tower today, and I hope that the prince can appreciate the light."
Li Xuan smiled a little embarrassedly and said, "You are sincere, this king is not easy to refuse, but I am afraid that I will have to wait for you, after this king settles down, freshen up a little, and rush to Siming Tower."
"This nature." Qian Zhe respectfully returned the salute.
Li Xuan smiled faintly and looked behind her.
At this time, Li Zhu had already driven the black carriage to the side.
Li Xuan arched his hand to everyone and said, "Everyone, see you at dinner."
"Congratulations to the prince!" In the midst of everyone's voices, Li Xuan got into the carriage directly.
Escorted by a team of thousands of guards, the carriage slowly drove towards the city gate, and the others finally got into the car.
At this moment, under the city gate, there was only Li Xuan's carriage, surrounded by a group of guards.
Suddenly, the sound of "clang" sounded on the city gate tower, and everyone on the dock subconsciously looked up, and saw a huge steel arrow suddenly raised, and then aimed at the black carriage.
"It's not good, it's Fuyuan's crossbow!" Bing Cao joined the army Yan Tao screamed in an instant, and before his words landed, he heard the sound of "collapse".
The extremely powerful arrow had already been shot fiercely, and it was shooting straight at the black carriage.
