Chapter 54: The Visit

Shao Xun's rhythm in Luoyang is very tight.

May 11 at Wang Yan's house.

On May 12, I came to Yu's house - uh, to visit Yu Liang.

"For several years, among the counties in Hebei, only Ji County has never fallen. No matter which way the thieves attack, Yu Gong can hold the city, and the three thousand elite soldiers under the tent can be regarded as trained. The place of conversation was originally arranged in the main hall, but the Biqiu clan changed it to the back garden, Shao Xun naturally had nothing to do, and he was talking about the situation in Hebei at the moment.

Across from him sat Yu Min.

Yu Liang stood on one side and made tea for the elders and the lord.

"Hebei was in chaos and replaced it with two stones. Liu Yuanhai seems to have assigned some to the two, and he was forced to retreat for Wang Jun in Kou Changshan in February. Shi Chao went down to Ji, Wei and other counties, but also returned in vain. The two of them were one south and one north, competing to attack the city, Taifu was worried, and once sent troops to cross the river to the north and forced Shi Chao to retreat. Yu Min sighed.

A little farther away from the two, a pair of embroidered shoes suddenly appeared, stopped behind the big tree, and listened intently.

Once upon a time, she was a passionate and innocent little girl. With large, dark eyes, they shimmer with enthusiasm, innocence, and curiosity.

Six years later, the twelve-year-old has changed dramatically.

The eyes that used to smile like crescents have a little more girlish brightness, the eyelashes are slightly curled, and there is still a touch of deer-like enthusiasm under the eyes.

His lips became more and more red, and he pursed them slightly, sometimes opened them in surprise, and then covered them gently.

The light and tight waist is a little thin, but it has begun to show its curves.

An embroidered shoe was grinding unconsciously on the ground, as if complaining about why Yu Min kept talking and talking.

In the past two years, a name that has often been on the lips of family members and relatives is "Shao Xun".

When he said this, he looked at her intentionally or unintentionally.

It's not that girls don't understand anything.

In fact, in the days when they could marry at the age of thirteen, mothers often taught their daughters how to be women when they were eleven or twelve years old, as part of the family's women's education.

She understands everything.

After hearing the word "Shao Xun" a lot, the memories of my childhood slowly surfaced in my mind and deepened, almost becoming a symbol.

In fact, she didn't know what she was thinking in her heart, maybe she was just passively accepting the fate arranged by the family, she was powerless to object, and she had no reason to object.

Or maybe it's not so reluctant, she saw his power when she was a child, and once made her think that a man who can protect her family is the most useful.

The deep impression left at that time made her aesthetic a little different from that of ordinary scholars.

There may be a slight sense of satisfaction.

The generals of the three armies, the young county marquis, the high-profile savior of Luoyang, the Yanling Yu clan and the Xuchang Chen clan all intend to marry women, and it doesn't matter who it is. But according to his brother, he "named" himself......

After thinking about it, the other side had already finished talking about a topic.

Yu Liang also boiled the tea and poured it into the tea bowl in front of the two.

"Lu Yanghou hasn't married a wife yet, right?" Yu Min took a sip of tea and suddenly asked.

The embroidery shoes that were unconsciously rubbing against the ground suddenly lost their rhythm and became clumsy and flustered.

The girl subconsciously stood up straight and became more dignified.

His face was slightly feverish, his throat was swollen, and his heart was beating faster.

"Never." Shao Xun replied.

Yu Min smiled and said, "Liang County and Yingchuan are close at hand, and you have to watch and help each other." ”

"What Yu Gong said is very true, and I also mean it." Shao Xun also replied with a smile.

Yu Min said no more. Some things stop at the point, what to do, Shao Xun naturally understands, the Yu family still has a face, this kind of thing cannot be taken the initiative to propose.

From the perspective of practical interests, the Yu family needs a strong foreign aid.

In the past, some people may not think so, but after the Wang Mi Rebellion, there are fewer and fewer people who hold such views.

No one is a fool, and when his life and ancestral tombs are threatened, people are always very realistic.

It is true that Shao Xun has a bad background, but he can fight.

Moreover, he is now the Marquis of Luyang County, the general of the material officer, and he also has a heavy army, and he has a close relationship with Situ Wang Yan, who in the Yu family can compare?

From Shao Xun's point of view, if he wants to integrate Yingchuan, a wealthy county with a huge population and wealth, he must have his own people and collaborators.

Yanling Yu's family, which has been rooted in Yingchuan since the Later Han Dynasty, is a very suitable object.

Of course, there are other warrior clans in Yingchuan who can also cooperate with Shao Xun, but didn't he name Wenjun's niece?

Well, after careful investigation, this matter was said by Hu Wufuzhi's big mouth, and it may not be accurate. But Shao Xun did not deny it, and his attitude can be seen. Today's temptation has become more and more affirmative of Yu Min's thoughts.

There's a drama in this matter!

And after hearing Shao Xun's affirmative answer, the girl's face burned even more.

With enthusiasm flickering in her eyes, she held her breath, as if she was afraid of alarming someone, and quietly poked her head out from behind the tree and peeked.

Coincidentally, Shao Xun happened to take a look over here.

Hey, what do I see? A pair of girl's eyes with multiple emotions such as exploration, anticipation, enthusiasm, and shyness, and there is a burning flush on her face.

After touching his gaze, the girl's eyes changed suddenly, and emotions such as surprise, sluggishness, and panic surfaced.

Before long, there was a stagger, and the rhythmic footsteps gradually faded away, and the big tree seemed to be empty.

There was silence.

Yu Min looked at Yu Liang, Yu Liang's face was red.

Shao Xun cleaned up his mood.

He suddenly felt that the girl was also quite interesting. Although it is easier to conquer and there is no sense of accomplishment, as a qualified old color batch, the family should implement a diversified strategy.

Yu Min coughed and said, "Zi Meijiu is in Ji County, left and right, do you have any ideas for moving places?" ”

Yu Liang came back to his senses and said, "I have only said a few words, but I have nowhere to focus." ”

Kijun is on the front line.

As Liu Han's power swelled day by day, this place would be attacked sooner or later, whether it was a feint or a main attack.

To be honest, Yu Chen has done a very good job.

He relied on the more than 1,000 soldiers sent by Shao Xun in the early days, and then used all kinds of means to unite the local heroes and scholars, won several battles, and his prestige gradually rose.

Subsequently, Shao Xun secretly colluded with Shi Chao and others through Lu Zhi, and in the case of rebellion in other counties and counties in Hebei, Ji County was safe and quiet, and Yu Chen's prestige in the local area rose again, and he received a lot of money and grain, and the three thousand soldiers in the county were also considered to have been in battle for a long time, and they had a little combat effectiveness.

But after all, it is the front line, and it can be maintained in a short time. After a long time, without the support of the imperial court, sooner or later it will not be able to bear it.

Yu Chen had this intention, but he was also worried that the imperial court would not be able to effectively use things in Hebei and fall into an isolated and helpless situation.

"After defeating Wang Mi, the imperial court may intend to use troops in Bingzhou and Hebei." Shao Xun revealed a little news, only to hear him say: "Taifu also has this intention. ”

Saying this, the two of them somewhat understood.

After clearing the internal hidden dangers, the imperial court was bound to use troops against the Xiongnu.

In the past, the kings were fighting, and they really couldn't spare their hands.

Now that the melee between the kings is over, only the king of the East China Sea is left, and in the face of the "monster" that the king of Chengdu made before his defeat, the government and the opposition have the need to extinguish it.

Especially Taifu Sima Yue, he is under a lot of pressure now, and he urgently needs to prove himself and save his image.

Then, it is normal to use troops against the Huns.

In the final analysis, although people of insight now think that the Xiongnu are already powerful and difficult to contain, they do not feel that they will definitely lose, and they still want to fight a dozen.

The Liangzhou soldiers, who had just shined under Luoyang City, left this morning and returned to Liangzhou. I heard that their route back would pass through Hedong County, and they would inevitably fight fiercely with the Xiongnu.

This may show the attitude of the imperial court, and they have no intention of giving up the annexation of the state.

The Rebellion of the Eight Kings has ended, and the interspersed episodes such as Zhang Chang, Liu Bogen, Ji Sang, and Wang Mi have also been pacified one by one, and the war between Jin and Hungary will become the mainstream in the future.

Maybe it will last for some years, because the strength of the Xiongnu is like that, and it does not have much advantage. Even on paper, the Huns were at a disadvantage.

This war still has to be fought!

After finishing the conversation in the back garden, Shao Xun said goodbye and left, returning to the Shao Mansion after a long absence.

During the Wang Mi Rebellion, the Shao Mansion accepted some of the guests of Panyuan Zhuang. By this time it was gone, but the whole mansion was still a bit messy.

Shao Xun didn't care too much, and after sending someone to clean up hastily, he sat down to write a letter.

Lu Zhi just reported that there were soldiers on Guang Chengze's side, but they were quickly suppressed by the Yamen army left behind.

The reason for the rebellion is still too bitter.

The construction of Guangchengze has entered its third year this year, or two years, seven and eight months.

Not only were the servants miserable, but the local government was also annoyed, and some emotions appeared.

Shao Xun thought about it, as the largest handful of wool he had picked up from the imperial court in six years, this project still had to continue.

Yes, I have to trouble Wang Situ again.

Dealing with this person is all about naked interests. This time, I have to think of a good rhetoric, so that Wang Situ can play the stunt of "telling the truth", persuade the Son of Heaven, and strengthen the determination of Guangchengyuan Palace to continue.

The imperial court experienced the rebellion of Wang Mi, and its prestige was somewhat damaged, but it was only "some". Take advantage of the favorable opportunity to mobilize the local government, and hurry up to do it. In the future, when the state and county will not bird the imperial court, where will they go to prostitute money, food, materials, and labor for nothing?

After thinking about this matter, Shao Xun dealt with the bereavement of the soldiers who died in battle......

One thing after another, I was busy until late at night.
