Zhu Su hurriedly asked why, and after Xie Rong's eloquent telling, he knew what happened in Guiyang City.

Guiyang City is a new city, except for the Guizhou Erwei and the surrounding departments and merchants used as a trading ground, not many people have settled in. Therefore, there are no civil officials in this city, except for Ma Ye's command and Zhu Su's temporary stay there, and Xie Jin, who coordinates the management of the field with the two departments of Shuixi and Shuidong, there are no other yamen.

To a certain extent, it can be said that Ma Ye is now in Guiyang City, and he is in charge of military and political affairs, like a feudal official.

But this Ma Ye doesn't know whether it is unintentional or deliberate, there is always friction with the two departments of Shuixi and Shuidong, although there is Xie Jin mediated in the middle every time, but it has not changed repeatedly. Since Zhu Su left, the relationship between the Shuixi and Shuidong Second Divisions and the Guizhou Weiming Army has become worse and worse, but Ai Cui and Song Qin have actually benefited from the Guizhou Rongchang and recognized Zhu Su's hard work, so they swallowed humiliation every time, which did not cause any major turmoil.

However, more than a month ago, the contradiction between the two suddenly broke out to an inextricable situation: in Guiyang City, Shuixi and Guizhou Wei suddenly broke out into an extremely violent conflict, the two sides fought fiercely, and Ai Cui was imprisoned......

"Ma Ye imprisoned Ai Cui?" Zhu Su frowned, "He is a commander and a fellow intellectual, and he dares to imprison Ai Cui as a local toast?" What's going on? Why did Ma Ye accuse Shuixi of wanting to rebel? ”

"This ...... I don't know. Xie Rong opened his mouth and stammered, Zhu Su couldn't help but be angry, and reprimanded: "I don't know this, I don't know that, what is Xie Jin doing in Guizhou?" ”

He left Xie Jin in Guiyang, because he was worried that the matter of winning over the Tusi would cause people to go to government because of his departure, so he left an agent. Although Xie Jin is a little arrogant, he is rich and rich, and he still has the ability. Otherwise, in later generations, he would not be able to single-handedly preside over the compilation of the Yongle Canon, and he also served as the chief assistant of the cabinet of the Yongle Dynasty.

Zhu Su pondered, such a talent, although he has no later experience in this matter, but it should be regarded as overkill when used to appease the southwest? I really didn't expect that such a small thing would be out of the basket.

"Big ...... The eldest brother is in charge of the field affairs single-handedly, and he really has no intention of taking care of what Ma Tongzhi does. What's more, the eldest brother has no permanent position in the court, and he can't ask about the affairs of Guizhou Wei......" Xie Rong saw that Zhu Su was angry, and he was afraid in his heart, and he only knew that he defended Xie Jin.

Zhu Su's face sank like water, and he knew that what Xie Rong said also made some sense. Xie Jin stayed in Guiyang, and only had the identity of a guest secretary of the Zhou Wangfu, which could be regarded as assisting the two Tusi of Shuixi and Shuidong to establish a field and communicate with the guard. To be more serious, he is just a student, and Ma Ye is a commander and a prince, if he wants to spare Xie Jin, Xie Jin really has nothing to do with him.

However, since he bypassed Xie Jin, the guest of the palace, it can also be considered that this Ma Ye is slapping himself in the face of the king of Zhou.

"That's it." Zhu Su waved his hand, quite helpless. I thought that by waiting for the messenger to solve Jin, he would be able to know the ins and outs, and it would be better to play Lao Zhu in advance, and the court would be able to prepare early. didn't expect Xie Jin to know what was going on, only knowing that Ma Ye deliberately provoked trouble, and he didn't know anything about his motives and methods.

Naturally, he can't play Lao Zhu like this. He is the dignified king of Zhou, but he is not the royal history of the rumors. And Lao Zhu is the emperor, and he will not lock up a general for no reason just because he listened to his son's words.

I still have to wait until I come to Guizhou again to find out the clues.

So Zhu Su, who received the emperor's order, went to Guizhou again. This time, he did not take the sea route to Lianzhou first, but took the ordinary route, crossed Pingxi, passed through Wusa, and finally arrived in Guizhou.

This trunk road is still brand-new, during the Southern Song Dynasty Lizong Dynasty, in order to prepare for Mongolia, the Song Dynasty issued an edict to the commanders of Jinghu Lake, and opened up roads in the area of Huangping, Qinglang and Pingxi. Later, in the Yuan Dynasty, the Luo ghost country entrenched in Yunnan and Guizhou was against the Yuan, causing the traffic in Sizhou and Banzhou to be poor, and the Yuan Court ordered to clear this road, which has only been a few decades.

However, it is always difficult to carve out a road in the mountains, and after years of unmaintained, it is often lost in the mountains. This road is still regarded as having businessmen coming and going, but even so, Zhu Su has a very difficult journey along the way. I saw mountains stacked on top of each other, and the roads in front of me were shallow and deep, some of which meandered along the mountains, and some of which went deep into the dense forest. There are also heavy smoke miasma, and tigers, leopards, snakes and insects, which teach people to be unbearable.

Ma Ye reported that Ai Cui had rebelled, and although Zhu Su didn't believe it, he still had to bring some soldiers with him to make sure that everything was perfect. Nearly 100 people wandered through this mountain, and the progress was even slower. Fortunately, under Zhu Su's strict order, this team has extremely high standards in terms of hygiene, the whole army is never allowed to drink raw water, eat raw food, walking, sitting and lying are customized, and all kinds of medicinal materials are prepared, so that this team does not have to be trapped by the "smoke miasma" disease, and in addition to being more difficult along the way, it is unharmed.

"The conditions in the southwest are indeed too difficult, especially on this road...... As the saying goes, if you want to get rich, you must first build roads...... With such an arduous road, it is really rare that the ancestors were able to open up the southwest and make it like a family with our Huaxia. "The road conditions are complicated, and Zhu Su naturally can't sit firmly in the high car. He thought as he looked at the path in front of him that had been carved out by his ancestors.

"In any case, the problem of this road must be solved, the road is opened, there will be more merchants in the field, and there will be more merchants on the road, and the relationship between Yungui and the center of the imperial court will be closer."

If you want to make Yungui and Huaxia like a family, it is by no means something that can be done by banning local officials and setting up a few low-ranking officials. It is necessary to make it not a remote place, so that the people of Yunnan and Guizhou and the people of China are one. Originally, Zhu Su didn't know that the Yunnan-Guizhou road was so difficult, and only thought about attracting merchants and communicating the southwest and the Central Plains with the field, but now it seems that the road repair is also indispensable.

Just as he was wandering, he saw Di Meng, who was opening the way in front, hurriedly coming: "Your Highness, there is someone in front of you who is blocking our way." ”

"Listen to what they have to say...... It seems to be a child of the Yi family in the west of the water......"

"Yi Min..." Zhu Su's eyes froze, and he quickened his pace and said, "Take me quickly." ”

Di Meng couldn't stop it, in his mind, those Yi people dared to block the road, maybe they really had a rebellion, if Zhu Su was allowed to show up, maybe there would be danger. But Zhu Su had already made great strides, and without hesitation, he separated the team and went forward, he knew that Zhu Su was a person, and he knew that it was useless to say anything at this time, and it was not good to say anything. I had to keep up quickly, and I was on guard at the same time.
