Chapter 131: Everything is ready

This note from the imperial history of Jiujiang made him subconsciously think of the pair of uncles and nephews who are now dormant in Huiji County.

It is now the thirty-sixth year of the first emperor, calculate the time, the pair of uncles and nephews should have begun to move, when they raised troops in Huiji, they soon swept the entire Huiji, and then led troops to the west to capture Lujiang County.

When did you lead troops to the north to attack Jiujiang County?

When he was studying in his previous life, he didn't pay attention to it.

But at such a point in time, the news of a serious bandit problem suddenly came from Jiujiang County, and he couldn't help but raise a trace of vigilance, and he glanced at the First Emperor, who was lying on the rocking chair with his eyes closed.

Hold the music in your hand and stand up gently.

He needs to find someone to check the situation in Jiujiang County and Huiji County immediately.

In the past, these little things could be clear as long as Zhao Gao asked, but now that Zhao Gao is gone, he is recuperating from his injuries in his own stable, so - thinking of this, he suddenly found that Zhao Gao is gone, and there are no new people around the First Emperor......

He couldn't help frowning slightly.

This is not a good phenomenon, if Zhao Gao's position has been vacant for a long time, it will not be possible for the eldest father to think of Zhao Gao's good in a few days, not to mention the eldest father who is accustomed to Zhao Gao's service, even himself, suddenly losing such a powerful assistant, feels a little inconvenient.

He just stood there with the song and hesitated for a moment, and the First Emperor noticed it, raised his head slightly, and looked over.

"What, something......"

Zhao Ying hesitated, smiled and raised the music in his hand.

"It's the history of the superintendent of Jiujiang County, saying that there is a bandit trouble over there, and the county guard and the county lieutenant are not effective in suppressing bandits, I was thinking of asking Hei Lao what the situation is over there now......"

As soon as he heard this, the First Emperor lay back down.

"Hei has been infected with wind and cold in the past few days, and I let him go back to recuperate in peace—"

The First Emperor first casually explained a black question, and then said unhurriedly.

"You said Jiujiang County, at this time of year, basically have to toss for a while, but there is no good way for the time being, there is close to Daze Township, swamps all over the place, the road conditions are complicated, the local garrison is difficult to pull out, and the gang of bandits is also quite cunning, as long as the local garrison moves, they will retreat into the depths of Daze......"

Speaking of this, the First Emperor waved his hand.

"The imperial court can't go out of a lot of war for this little thing, send a large army, you just look at the local officials and order them to send troops to suppress the bandits......"

Zhao Ying smiled and nodded, sat back, and muttered for a moment according to the instructions of the First Emperor, then lightly put down the pen, briefly reprimanded the local officials, and then ordered them to send troops to suppress the bandits.

But at the end, he added such a sentence without a trace.

"Disasters often accumulate in the slightest, Jiujiang is located in the north and south, on the verge of Daze, easy to hide treacherous evil, you should be prepared for danger in times of peace, strengthen military preparedness, in case of emergency."

Then, very skillfully touched the seal of the First Emperor, with the seal.

Although Song Shu has been dealt with, this matter is like a cloud, left in Zhao Ying's heart, and his intuition tells him that this matter may not be simple, but he lacks enough information in his hands, and he can't figure out where the problem is for a while.

I can only warn a few words for the time being, and I hope that the local officials will help a little.

To his surprise, when he came out of the palace, he met Hu Hai who was leading his son and preparing to enter the palace. He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and then laughed and greeted him.

"Uncle Eighteen, I didn't expect to meet you again, our two uncles and nephews, it's really fateful, hahaha-"

When Hu Hai heard this, the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching slightly, and he smiled dryly.

"Ah, that's a coincidence......"

As he spoke, he quietly hid behind his son.

As if he hadn't seen it, Zhao Ying strode up and hugged Hu Hai's shoulders enthusiastically.

Hu Hai: ......

He is not short in height, but Zhao Ying is taller, he is one meter seven or eight tall, under Zhao Ying's tall and strong body, he is like a little quail.

The strong sense of oppression made him feel an indescribable discomfort.

But he still can't break free, and there is nothing he can do about the enthusiasm of this eldest nephew.

People who meet each other will hook up their shoulders at every turn......

Fortunately, Zhao Ying's dog thing was also in moderation, and he just shook Hu Hai vigorously with his arms, and after expressing his cordial and friendly greetings to his eldest nephew, he let go of his arm.

Hu Hairu was granted amnesty.

This dog doesn't know where he got so much strength, just a few times just now, and his body almost fell apart.

"Uncle Eighteen, is this here to say hello to my eldest father again?"

Zhao Ying knowingly mentioned it, and then reminded him kindly.

"Oh, that's really unfortunate, the eldest father has just fallen asleep, when you go in, try to be careful, don't disturb the eldest father's rest......"

After speaking, Zhao Ying waved very hard and left directly.

Hu Hai entered the palace to ask the First Emperor for such a thing, it was not his turn to worry about it, as a qualified nephew, the only thing he could do was to be a friendly and sincere reminder.

……

Looking at Zhao Ying, who was striding away, Hu Hai stood on the steps, originally wanting to step forward directly, but suddenly hesitated.

What Zhao Ying's dog said, is it true or false?

He had the heart to go in now, but he was afraid that he would really disturb his rest, but if he didn't go in, he would have to wait outside.

But he wasn't worried, although Zhao Gao was no longer in the palace, but Hei Lao was here, how could he hang his prince outside?

I thought I would soon come out and call myself in.

But he waited, waited, waited for a long time, and the expression on his face changed from calm to anxious, and he couldn't see the shadow of black.

Although he and his son were dressed in fine furs, it was the end of December, the coldest season of the year......

It's just that after a while, my hands and feet are a little stiff from the cold.

At this time, he thought more and more of Zhao Gao's good come.

If Zhao Gao is here, it is impossible for him to wait outside for such a prince at this time, how can he come out to give him a quasi-letter, even if Ah Weng is really resting, he will definitely come out to arrange a place for him to rest.

And Zhao Gao is now ......

Thinking of Zhao Gao, Hu Hai couldn't help but have a toothache, and couldn't help scolding in his heart.

"Zhao Ying's dog thief ......"

Looking at the eighteen princes who were so cold that they were pacing back and forth outside the main hall, those palace maids couldn't help but feel deep sympathy. But they can't help it, under the prestige of the First Emperor, who would dare to disturb the rest of the First Emperor with these guards and maids in the palace now?

When His Royal Highness the Emperor Eldest Sun left, he was clearly reminded that His Majesty was asleep, so don't disturb His Majesty's rest.

Therefore, as long as Hu Hai didn't break into it himself, and didn't mention letting them in, they simply looked at their noses and noses, and pretended to be deaf and dumb there.

Hu Hai: ......

If Zhao Ying didn't remind him when he was leaving, he could naturally let people report it directly, but the problem was that Zhao Ying had just reminded him "kindly" in front of so many people.

As a good son of filial piety, how can he disturb the first emperor who has just fallen asleep, pro-Ah Weng......

So, after thinking about it, I thought about it, and in the end, I couldn't help but boil it down to one sentence again.

"Zhao Ying, dog thief!"

……

Zhao Ying, who had just walked out of the palace gate, suddenly sneezed loudly.

"Isn't it who thinks about me......"

Zhao Ying rubbed his nose and waved his hand at Zhang Liang, who was curled up on the wheels on the side.

"Let's go, go home......"

Zhang Liang rubbed his frozen cheeks vigorously and waved the horsewhip silently. As the halberd of His Royal Highness the Emperor Eldest Sun, he will not be hungry if he is hungry, but there will definitely be no place for him to rest.

Poor, in the middle of winter, I was stunned and waited on the wheel for a long time.

Zhao Ying didn't have the time to care about him, and what he was worried about at this time was still the trouble in Jiujiang County.

When he returned to the house, he immediately asked Zhang Liang to find all the letters from Huiji County and Lingnan.

Ever since the caravans of Jingheqian took root in Huiji and Lingnan, letters have been sent every three days. As the leader of the team, Qian naturally reported the progress of his work in Lingnan in every detail, but the shocking information was all about the recent movements of Huiji County.

This information, he naturally consults it in time every time.

But the problem is that all the information shows that everything is fine in Huiji County.

It's so normal, it's even so normal that there are no bandits, it's almost political, so when the New Year is celebrated in October, the imperial court also specially rewarded the local county guard Yin Tong and the county lieutenant Long Ze.

But Zhao Ying, who is familiar with history, knows that the more this is the case, the more abnormal it may be.

I'm afraid that with the cooperation of Yin Tong, the anti-bone boy, and Xiang Liang, Xiang Yu's uncle and nephew, the entire Huiji County has been run into an iron plate?

"I always feel that something is not normal......"

Zhao Ying frowned, looking at the letter mailed back from Huiji County, his tone was a little solemn.

"There is definitely something wrong with this Huiji County, so please give me a careful study of these letters, and break down all the contents mentioned above in this information and study them carefully......"

Speaking of this, Zhao Ying glanced at Zhang Liang, who was slightly surprised, and his eyes were a little meaningful.

Since you can't find the clue yourself, find someone who can find it!

But whoever walks by, there will be traces. He didn't believe that such a big thing, that group of people could really do it seamlessly.

There must be some information that I didn't notice.

"Especially all the information about the county guard Yin Tong, the county lieutenant Long Ze, and a pair of uncles and nephews named Xiang Liang Xiangyu......"

When Zhang Liang heard this, he subconsciously glanced up at Zhao Ying, and saw that Zhao Ying's face was calm, and he couldn't see any joy or anger in his eyes, so he suddenly tightened his heart and bowed down.

"No—"

Zhang Liang squatted with a large number of letters to study, although it was a little boring, but this study was as warm as spring, compared with the taste of squatting on the wheel at the gate of the palace and waiting for someone-

Tsk, that's delicious!

Zhang Liang felt that he should take some time to see the former CRRC government commander, if he could not die, it was best not to let him die.

Otherwise, I am afraid that I will not be able to escape the work of driving for a while.

handed over the task to Zhang Liang, and Zhao Ying no longer bothered about it, but turned around and went to the paper mill.

The former grange of their family has now been completely transformed into a large-scale paper mill, and next to the paper mill is a printing house that works day and night to print "Casting the Soul of the Army".

Now, in the name of military training, this grange has also been included in the scope of the recruit camp and has become a forbidden area.

Ordinary people, except that they felt that the water flowing through the grange had become a little dirty, they did not feel anything unusual.

In this era, even if they were suspicious, they would definitely not have imagined that such a large paper mill would be hidden.

"Childe-"

As soon as he entered the grange, Mo who got the news greeted him with a look of surprise.

Today, he is the steward of the grange and is responsible for all things the paper mill and the printing house. Under Mo's leadership, Zhao Ying personally checked the progress of the paper mill and the printing plant.

Seeing that there was no difference, he gave a few words of encouragement, and then rewarded each craftsman who worked overtime with a hundred dollars as usual, and then turned around and left amid the cheers of joy.

Now that everything is ready, tomorrow we can tell the Father and launch the first step of the plan.

Before I can do that, though, there's another thing I need to settle with.

Seeing that it was still early, he did not go home, but turned his horse's head and went directly to the water grass hall in the west of the city.

Today's Xishui Thatched Cottage has lost the shabby appearance of the original hut.

Since receiving the support of the First Emperor, the scale has swelled dramatically, with the thatched cottage where Chun Yuyue lived as the center, and now it has become a place covering an area of dozens of acres and hundreds of houses.

The personnel have also become overcrowded from a dozen disciples who swore to follow to the death. Almost all the Confucian disciples in Xianyang regard this place as a Confucian dojo.

Everywhere you can see Confucian scholars who hold books and study hard, or scholars who hold swords and sit and talk about the Tao.

There are also those who play the harp, those who ride horses, and those who shoot arrows......

There are even those who drive chariots and fight against each other in the newly opened martial arts arena.

Zhao Ying: ......

He suddenly understood why Confucius was able to travel around the world with a group of disciples.

Who is this the scholar who can only do it and has no power to tie the chicken in the impression of later generations? This is simply a bunch of robed bandits armed with knowledge.

Zhao Ying's figure is too tall, and the Dawan horse he is holding is also extraordinary, although he is walking, but in this group of people, he still stands out from the crowd, so along the way, it has attracted the attention of many people.

But no one will be curious to gather around to see the excitement.

After all, this is the holy place of Confucian reading, and the people who come here are all scholars who admire Mr. Chun Yuyue's knowledge.

Everyone always has to pay attention to some decency.

Therefore, when he walked to the door of Mr. Chun Yuyue's thatched cottage, he was discovered by Zhuo Yi, who was wearing a robe and hanging a long sword from his waist, and was reading in front of the door.

He got up and walked briskly over to him and bowed.

"Student Zhuo Yi, I have seen His Royal Highness the Emperor's eldest grandson, His Royal Highness has come from afar, and he has missed the welcome, and he hopes to forgive his sins......"

Zhao Ying smiled and returned the salute.

"Brother Zhuo doesn't need to be polite, I came today to ask to see Mr. Chun Yuyue——"

Speaking of this, Zhao Ying looked back left and right, and asked with a smile.

"May I ask Mr. Chun Yuyue to be ......?"
