The book continues from the above, and the last book said that Shi Hanshuang, the eldest princess of the Xianwang Mansion, and Li Yuhu, the side princess, came to the Dongshi wine store together, met Mishana and Zitong, and after a sincere conversation, Mishana and Zitong agreed to Shi Hanshuang and Li Yuhu's request and decided to move into the Xianwang Mansion to live.

On the other hand, Guo Xingfang, who escaped by chance, finally arrived in Chang'an City smoothly under the escort of Yizhou carriage and horse hanging, after some twists and turns, Guo Xingfang saw the virtuous king Chu Mofeng, after listening to Guo Xingfang's report, Chu Mofeng felt that the matter was important, and then led Guo Xingfang to quickly enter the palace to face the saint, and Li Shimin learned that he was most worried about the occurrence of internal worries, and immediately thundered and angry, so he ordered to appoint Chu Mofeng as the minister of the Qin mission again, to patrol the southwestern state capitals, and at the same time thoroughly investigate the matter of Yizhou.

Chu Mofeng once again led his other side flower team to Yizhou first, leaving the Qincha guards to walk slowly.

On the official road about three hundred miles away from the capital, a young and handsome young man rode his horse slowly, followed by two women with different characteristics, "Brother Feng, why did you only take me and my cousin with you on this trip? Do you want to find time alone to get close to your cousin? Don't worry, Zhen'er will not get in the way." This time, Chu Mofeng went out, and after thinking about it for a long time, he decided to leave Xiao Ruolan and Yu Wenxiu in the mansion to respond, and he took Liu Feiyan and Gu Zhen'er to the southwest.

Liu Feiyan, who was half a position behind Chu Mofeng, couldn't help but feel a little helpless after listening to Gu Zhen'er's words, his cousin was still infatuated after so many years, and he vowed several times to forget the man in front of him, but in the end, he still remembered it.

And these words inadvertently plucked the string in his heart, since the prison was a glimpse, that thin figure was also engraved in his heart, thinking that the righteous thief Liu Feiyan was also the number one person in the rivers and lakes, and he didn't expect to be able to do things for him willingly for so many years, in order to repay the grace of saving his life? Or is it really as my cousin said, is it that faint feeling? Thinking of this Liu Feiyan's cheeks flushed, he looked at Chu Mofeng's back and whispered: " Brother Chu, don't listen to Zhen'er's nonsense, she has been talking nonsense for so many years. ”

"It's okay, let's hurry up and try to arrive in Liangzhou before dark. Chu Mofeng turned around and glanced at Liu Feiyan, and then said with a smile: "Actually, you don't have to be too entangled in Feiyan, no matter what you do, just follow your truest thoughts in your heart." Then he raised his whip and urged the horses forward.

Touching his somewhat hot cheeks, Liu Feiyan gently clamped his legs and walked forward behind Chu Mofeng, while Gu Zhen'er on the side hurriedly chased forward when he saw this, "You two are so ruthless, you actually left me alone and left like this?"

Liangzhou, located in the Hanshui Basin, Liangzhou to the north arch guarding Chang'an, and to the south is the only way to enter the Bashu region, as the north gate of the Bashu region, Liangzhou is also considered to be second only to Yizhou rich area, the majority of ethnic minorities in the Bashu region, the folk customs are simple and there is no lack of toughness, most of the local people walk on the street in costumes with ethnic minority characteristics, and occasionally you can see Han people wearing Tang costumes.

Like this kind of atmosphere with the atmosphere of ethnic exchange and integration, Chu Mofeng and the others had already seen it in Zhangye back then, so they didn't feel anything new, the three of them led the horse and walked on the street, their ears were filled with the sounds of selling and talking in various dialects, Gu Zhen'er, who was a little younger, couldn't help but feel a little funny when she heard it, "Brother Feng, these people are so interesting to talk about, they are chattering so much that people don't know what to say." ”

This is the characteristic of ethnic integration, the first ethnic integration in history can be traced back to the Xia Shang and Zhou periods of the Chinese land, dotted with different forms of ethnic groups. Generally speaking, there are several major groups of Guqiang, Yi, Miaoman, Bashu, Baiyue, and Southwest Yi. And this Bashu is where we are now, that is, the country of Cuba and the country of ancient Shu, who created an advanced bronze civilization. Chu Mofeng couldn't help but smile when he saw this, and then continued: "In the Wei and Jin dynasties, the northern Xiongnu, Xianbei, Xia, Qiang, Di and other nomadic herds began to enter the Central Plains on a large scale, and began to form a second large-scale ethnic integration. So much so that at the end of the Western Jin Dynasty, these ethnic minorities launched the "Yongjia Rebellion", forcing the Western Jin Dynasty to perish.

With the demise of the Western Jin Dynasty, there were two very interesting phenomena, the first was that the Jin dynasty moved south, and a large number of Han people migrated to the southeast, which is now the area south of the Yangtze River, which promoted the integration with the Baiyue people. The second is that the northern nomads got acquainted with the people who moved south to the northern region, and they continued to absorb the cultural customs of our Han people, and gradually tended to be sinicized. ”

Chu Mofeng's explanation surprised Liu Feiyan and Gu Zhen'er behind them, both of them were born recklessly, but later with the rise of Chu Mofeng's status, and Li Yuan once gave the other side of the flower people idle positions, this also made Liu Feiyan and others see their own gap, and in their spare time, the other side of the flower people also like to read history books and study the art of war battle formation, in order not to lose face to Chu Mofeng.

The three of them came to an inn, Chu Mofeng opened two rooms first, and then instructed the guys in the store to prepare some food and send it to the guest room, and then said goodbye to Liu Feiyan and the two and left the inn directly. All the way around came to the Liangzhou Governance Office and the Hanzhong Carriage and Horse Travel.

After entering the door, he showed his waist card, Chu Mofeng was immediately invited into the inner room, and saw a middle-aged man with a simple face saluting Chu Mofeng and said: "The shopkeeper of Liangzhou Carriage and Horse Shop, the head of Liangzhou Station of the wandering son, Liang Yi, has seen His Royal Highness King Xian. ”

Chu Mofeng waved his hand and motioned for Liang to come together, and then whispered: "Liang Yi, is there any news about Yizhou?"

"Back to His Royal Highness, the last news from Yizhou was that some cavalry had returned to the city at the west gate of Yizhou, according to the news from the spies in the governor's mansion, it seems that shortly after the return of these cavalry, Dou Liang, the governor of Yizhou, was furious in the mansion, and then killed several servants with his own hands. Liang Yi sorted out the information he had collected a little, and then presented it to Chu Mofeng for reading.

After a general browsing, Chu Mofeng put the information in his hand on the table, pondered for a moment and said, "What about Liangzhou, is there any change?"

"Under the rule of Liangzhou, there are only four counties of Nanzheng, Baocheng, Xixian and Chenggu, and the population is mainly ethnic minorities, and their way of dealing with things is very different from ours, and because of the language barrier, there is little change here. Hearing that Chu Mofeng asked about Liangzhou, Liang Yi, who had been lurking here for many years, explained the situation without thinking, and then said with a little doubt: "If there is anything special, some time ago, a group of fangs hired a few big carts from the carriage and horse shop and went in the direction of Yizhou. ”

"Do you know what these people are going to do?" Putting down the teacup in his hand, Chu Mofeng stood up and looked at the inner room, and then walked straight towards the outhouse, "Forget it, this king still doesn't ask, as you said, the language barrier is not conducive to listening to information." ”

"Your Royal Highness, you really guessed wrong this time, there is a fang man in the subordinate shop, who fled from the direction of Yizhou a few years ago, and his subordinates kindly took him in so far, after the group of people left, the subordinates didn't take it seriously, but they ...... that night" Thinking of the scene that night, Liang Yi couldn't help but fall into memory.

That night, the carriage and horse shop had been closed, and as the person in charge of the wandering Liangzhou station, Liang Yi went into the inner room after the door panel began to sort out the information collected in recent times, and prepared to transcribe it and send it to the capital early tomorrow morning through the carriage and horse shop. ”

After finishing speaking, Liang Yi was about to walk to the inner room, but when he turned around, he heard a familiar voice from outside the door, "It's me who is kneeling (the shopkeeper) dirty, I'm Ji Duofucai, I have something urgent to tell you." ”

As soon as he heard that it was the fangman guy Ji Duo Fucai, Liang Yi hurriedly turned around and walked to the door to remove the door panel, opened the door and welcomed Ji Duofu in, only to find that he was dressed as a long trip at the moment, and he was looking at Liang Yi in a daze at the moment.

"It's Ji Duo Fucai, it's so late that the store is closed, if there is nothing special, can you come to me early tomorrow morning and say okay? And what are you going to do in this dress?" Looking at the already dark sky outside the door, Liang Yi couldn't help frowning, who knew that Ji Duofu suddenly threw the burden in his hand, knelt in front of Liang Yi and said: "Dirty kneeling (shopkeeper) I want to go back to Yizhou." ”

Liang Yi thought to himself, didn't this guy escape from Yizhou? Why hadn't he mentioned it before, but today he suddenly said this, and he was a little suspicious at the moment, and then looked at Ji Duofu with a smile before he said, "Isn't something happening?"

Ji Duofu only saw this had to intermittently say the reason, it turned out that today there are fang people to hire a car, because Ji Duofu is also a fang, Liang Yi let him go to contact, who knows after some inquiry, only to know that the fang people in Yizhou due to the long-term oppression of the metropolitan governor Dou Rail, have all been hiding in the mountains, this fang this time hired a car back to Yizhou, one is to buy some materials to send back, the other is to have gathered a large number of fangs, ready to go back to fight Dou Rail to the end.

Ji Duo Fu Cai was also oppressed by Dou Rail back then, unbearable to escape from Yizhou, I thought that after Dou Rail was imprisoned by Li Yuan, the situation in Yizhou would get better and better, who knew that Dou Rail returned to Yizhou, this time I met the clansmen, learned of this situation, Ji Duofu couldn't help but be a little moved, determined to return to Yizhou with the same people and hatred.

After understanding what happened, Liang Yi left on the second day, and then contacted Wei Yunqi and Guo Xingfang, who were then the Shangshu of Yizhou, through the carriage and horse shop of Yizhou, but they didn't know that Wei Yunqi was killed later, Guo Xingfang escaped from Yizhou alone, and then Chu Mofeng came.

After listening to Liang Yi's report, Chu Mofeng nodded, and then said in a deep voice: "You did the right thing in this matter, it seems that this king has to go to Yizhou to find out." ”

Liang Yi followed Chu Mofeng to the outhouse, at this time it was the busiest time of the day, there was an endless stream of people who came to hire cars in the carriage and horse shop, looking at the busy scene in front of him, Chu Mofeng couldn't help but smile with relief, he insisted on asking for the management of the post station from Li Yuan's hands, and with the carriage and horse shops blooming on all sides, the current Xianwang Mansion has made great achievements in collecting intelligence, and Chu Mofeng also secretly ordered the wanderers from all over the country to try to control the local tooth shop as much as possible, and trained a large number of personnel to enter the mansions of officials at all levels, in order to detect the illegal behavior of officials in advance, and at the same time to be able to find out the local public sentiment and public opinion as a low-level person。

In the process of transporting people, the carriage and horse company carried some local goods to trade elsewhere, and then purchased local goods and returned to the local area, and earned a lot of price difference by buying low and selling high, and all this money entered the private treasury of the Xianwang Mansion through Chu Mofeng, this is not that Chu Mofeng does not want to take it out and fill it into the treasury, but this part of the money, plus part of Chu Mofeng's secret income, is all used to buy schools, resettle displaced people and research and development of ordnance, and Chu Mofeng himself has not touched a penny.

As for the Tiance army in the north, it is basically in a state of fighting to support the war, because the imperial court has abolished the Tiance Mansion, as the main combat force of the Tiance Mansion, the Tiance army bears the brunt, and Chu Mofeng is privately transferred to the Beidi area, and the entire 1,200 Tiance army and its reserve force are all maintained by plundering the money in exchange, that is to say, the military, intelligence, and financial organizations that currently belong to Chu Mofeng have not used a five-baht coin in the Tang Dynasty, and they all rely on the support of the Lingnan Song family and the family business accumulated in Zhangye back then.

Seeing that the carriage and horse shop were a little busy, Chu Mofeng immediately said goodbye to Liang Yi and returned straight to the inn. When he returned to his room, he was about to rest on the bed, but he heard a slight knock on the door, walked to the door and opened the door, but saw Liu Feiyan standing outside the door with some food, and when he saw Chu Mofeng open the door, Liu Feiyan stepped in and put the food on the table, "Brother Chu is back, let's eat something while it's hot." ”

Looking at the exquisite food on the table, a feeling of hunger came from his stomach, and he didn't care about being polite at this time, Chu Mofeng picked up the wooden chopsticks in the tray and ate them with a big mouthful, Liu Feiyan on the side saw Chu Mofeng's eating appearance, and thought to himself that this guy is already a royal brother, why is the meal still gobbled up, isn't it like this in the palace, if this is the case, wouldn't it make Your Majesty laugh?

Thinking of this, Liu Feiyan couldn't help but smile, who knew that he happened to be seen by Chu Mofeng, who raised his head, and immediately Chu Mofeng stood on the spot with a bowl, "Feiyan, it's really beautiful for you to smile like this, I always see you with a cold face, in fact, you should smile more, so that it looks good." ”

"Brother Chu means that Feiyan is not good-looking?" Hearing Chu Mofeng's voice, Liu Feiyan came back to his senses, and then his cheeks turned red and said: "Feiyan only laughs at people who are worthy, and Brother Chu is that person." After saying that, he ran out of the room with his hands on his face, and almost tripped over the threshold when he was about to leave the door. Looking at the back of Liu Feiyan leaving, Chu Mofeng suddenly understood the meaning of that sentence, and immediately shook his head helplessly, and then began to eat by himself.

After finishing the meal, Chu Mofeng rubbed his slightly bulging belly, got up and stretched his long waist, remembering the news of his inquiry in Liang Yi today, and then left his room and came to the room of Liu Feiyan and Gu Zhen'er next door, walked to the door and was about to knock on the door, only to hear the conversation between the two in the house.

In the room, Gu Zhen'er sat at one end and wiped her weapon, and then glanced at Liu Feiyan with a little meaning, "I said cousin, you don't cherish such a great opportunity, you said that you only laughed for him alone, what are you running away from after speaking?"

At this time, Liu Feiyan was lying on the bed and covered his face with a quilt, because he didn't know how, he would say something like that, which made Liu Feiyan, who was usually cold, also surprised, he was a demon queen, the demon queen of the flower on the other side, there is also a name in the rivers and lakes, and today's self is not like himself at all.

And after hearing Gu Zhen'er's words, Liu Feiyan couldn't help but regret a little, since he had started, it was better to simply pick it out at that time, who knew that he was actually shy, thinking of this, Liu Feiyan lifted the quilt and said: "Do you think that others are as bold as you, and dare to say anything? People are also afraid that talking too much will distract Brother Chu, which will affect the errand assigned by His Majesty, so that the gain outweighs the loss." ”

"Go, go, Lord Enchantress has a spring heart, can you still take care of these things?" After putting away the weapon, Gu Zhen'er lay on her back on the bed, looked at the sky outside the window and whispered: " Cousin, in fact, I am very much in favor of you expressing your mind to Brother Chu, we people will experience a knife licking blood from time to time, as the saying goes, if you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what happens, when Qin Jing died in Bingzhou before, it touched me very much, I made up my mind at that time, I must follow Brother Feng to make it clear, otherwise once he dies in the future, won't he even have a chance to speak. ”

Speaking of Chen Jingqing, Liu Feiyan was immediately stunned, then walked to the window, pushed the window open, looked at the scenery outside and whispered: "Zhen'er, do you think Qinqing wants us on it?"

"Yes, we miss her too, so when we go up to see her, we must not let this little girl laugh at us. Looking at Liu Feiyan, who was already crying pear blossoms with rain, Gu Zhen'er had no time to take care of him, so she could only wipe a handful of tears by herself.

Chu Mofeng, who was outside the door, heard the conversation between the two, and couldn't help but feel a little melancholy in his heart, especially when the two mentioned Chen Jingqing, Chu Mofeng's eyes immediately appeared with the blind girl with firm eyes, and then whispered to the door: "Feiyan, Zhen'er, I'm Brother Chu, now I'm going to go out, you two will rest early tonight, and we will leave for Yizhou early tomorrow morning." ”

Immediately, Chu Mofeng turned around and left here, and when Liu Feiyan and Gu Zhen'er reacted, they opened the door and found that there was no one outside.

At the same time, the Yizhou Governor's Mansion, the eldest girl Qingyu girl next to Mrs. Dou Rail, was carrying a basket towards the gate at the moment, and when she was about to walk to the door, she met Dou Rail who was returning to the house, and Qingyu hurriedly saluted Dou Rail when she saw this, "I have seen the master, and the lady is waiting for the master in the house." ”

After seeing the rain, Dou Liang was stunned for a moment, and then asked with a puzzled face: "What are you doing here?"

"Returning to the master, the rouge gouache in the lady's room has run out, so let the slave and maid go and buy some back. Looking at Dou Liang's puzzled expression, Qingyu lowered her head and said cautiously: "In addition, the lady asked the slave maid to buy another fish, saying that she would personally cook some food for the master tonight." ”

In view of Guo Xingfang's escape before, Dou Rail's temper has become more and more irritable for many days, and when he thought of not catching Guo Xingfang, Dou Rail immediately became angry, if this person is incognito and will never appear again, it is good, if he runs to the capital to find that person, he will definitely die without a place to be buried. Thinking of this, Dou Liang was about to open his mouth to reprimand Qingyu, but he heard a crisp voice from the front, "Master, it was the concubine who let Qingyu go out, recently I heard that the live fish in the market are fresh, and the concubine has been thinking that she has not personally cooked for you for a long time, so there is this arrangement today, if the master is unwilling, then the concubine will not let Qingyu go out." ”

Looking at his wife who had followed him for many years in front of him, Dou Liang's heart couldn't help but warm, and he immediately said with a smile: "What is Madam talking about, since Madam wants to cook, then the husband will be cheeky and wait to taste Madame's craftsmanship again." Then he waved his hand at Qingyu. Seeing this, Qingyu saluted Dou Liang and his wife, turned around and walked out of the governor's mansion.

The rouge shop in Yizhou City is the most popular one called Chuanfu Youxiang, because this shop will buy a batch of exotic fat powder every month, so the women in Yizhou City only favor this store, and the location of this store is very flattering, just next to the Yizhou carriage and horse shop, those rich ladies can hire a delicate carriage next to it to go home, so as not to endure the trouble of walking.

Qingyu walked slowly and leisurely all the way, and when he passed by the carriage and horse shop, he suddenly shouted inside: "Shopkeeper, the plaque of the guy next door to you is blocking the plaque of your house again." ”

As soon as he heard this, the shopkeeper immediately walked out and said to Qingyu: "Miss Qingyu has come to pick rouge for your wife again." ”

Qingyu nodded, and then said to the shopkeeper: "Please also ask the shopkeeper to prepare a carriage later, the little girl is going to the market to buy." ”

Seeing this, the shopkeeper nodded, then turned around and walked towards the house, and came to the Sichuan Mansion Youxiang, Qingyu chose a few boxes of rouge gouache commonly used by his master, wrapped it and paid the bill, and went straight to the carriage and horse shop, and then a carriage slowly drove out of the carriage and horse shop, and walked towards the market.

"Inform Your Highness that Dou Rail may send a letter to the imperial court in the near future, wanting to deploy troops to exterminate the fangs in Yizhou, this matter is very important, if you can't get rid of Dou Rail to appease the local fangs, lest all the ethnic groups in Shu land rebel first in order to protect themselves. Sitting in the carriage, Qingyu muttered as if talking to herself, and then there were three knocks on the carriage outside the carriage. After driving for a while, the carriage came to a slow stop, only to hear the handlebar outside the carriage shouting: "The girl has arrived, you get off slowly." ”

I saw Qingyu lift the curtain, jumped out of the carriage with an arrow step, and said to the handlebar: "You don't have to wait here, I'll go back by myself later, you can return quickly." The word "speed" was deliberately accentuated in his tone, and then Qingyu went straight into the market.

Seeing this, the handlebar type immediately jumped into the carriage, waved the whip and drove in the direction of the carriage, and half an hour later, a carrier pigeon rose to the sky and flew in the direction of Liangzhou......

As the saying goes, hearing is false and seeing is believing, and watching Chu Mofeng disguise himself and sneaking into Yizhou to investigate and secretly visit, and then looking at Dou Shi, he has no eyes and no beads to arrest Qin Cha and return to the sky, I want to know what will happen next, and listen to the next decomposition......
