Chapter 744: Taking the Vassal (II)

Zhang Weicun received the name, and frowned slightly.

Everyone watched silently, and when they saw Licheng, they all bowed down together: "Long live!"

It's all a deterrent...... The imperial court is in the prime of life, and the power overwhelms the world, even if it is Zhang Weicun, the Marquis of Xiang, if it is not for the heavenly seal of the young monarch of Dongtian, how dare he call the board?

Even so, he still bowed and accepted the name, Dongtian Shaojun is not real power, and he can't be compared with Nanlian Dongtian Zhenjun.

As soon as the holy decree was received, the reception banquet was unhappily dispersed, and the contradictions between the two sides were difficult to reconcile, and it was only temporarily tolerated under the overall situation of the Heavenly Court's fight against the outer regions.

Zhang Weicun immediately left with his hands in his hands and left the state city with the brigade...... If you don't leave here, are you still waiting to be controlled every day?

Anyway, the foundation nest is not here.

Before leaving, his heart was rolling with a hundred thoughts, and he sighed on the way: "It's a pity that I came up too quickly, and I didn't capture Quanzhou...... Otherwise, how could this kid force me to leave the state city?"

Leaving in the name of leading a large army to control the water, although the reputation is good, there are still some wolf bèi.

Yanghua Dongtian was secretly instructed in advance, unless he gave up fighting for hegemony, he couldn't ignore the foundation on the ground, and the specific pros and cons of choosing this time depended on the evolution.

"Although it is to give up the state city, but it is the same when I return to Xiangyin County, we have already mastered half of the local territory of each county, so the problem of resources is not big, at least in the next half a year, you don't have to worry, before my real dragon is still gone, Xiao'er will not dare to do it......"

Zhang Weicun commented, and sighed again: "Cai Chao calculates to pick peaches, but I'm afraid that the hearts of the people in the states will be difficult to subdue." ”

Hearing this, everyone below looked gloomy, and some people who went to the soil even said: "I can't bear this matter, and I will get it back in the future." ”

Zhang Weicun nodded with satisfaction, knowing that people's hearts were available.

The Lower Earth Dynasty has risen in the troubled times for 50 years, condensing groups and hardcore vassals, and the interests are unanimous...... King Qingjun also came down with a large group of people, although it was not as exaggerated as King Xinjun, and he needed a lot of positions to arrange, which was not only the luck of his Zhang Wei Village.

Then, here's the division...... This is just the right place to swing from side to side, isn't that the Maison's favorite situation?

"Those who are wavering, don't care about life and death, there are opportunities under the catastrophe, and the foundation of Xiangzhou depends on your concerted efforts. ”

"The ministers will die for the Hou Ye!" everyone should say in unison.

They are heroes who have been killed in troubled times, and they know that the war is indeed their best stage, including the strongest King Xinjun, no matter how strong the power of the prince is in the domain, there is no way to compare.

Ye Qing was in Sanshui County, and when he heard this farce in Xiangzhou, he sighed twice: "Lead the army to control the water, and this excuse can also be thought of......

Zhuge Liang was coming to report the results of the grain collection, and he smiled when he heard it: "Heavy ears are safe outside, and Shen Sheng is dead inside, this Xianghou is also decisive." ”

Ye Qing nodded, knowing this Han style allusion in Zhuge Liang's mouth - Shen Sheng and Chong'er were the two sons of the Jin State during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Shen Sheng was unwilling to run away from the capital, so he was killed by various methods, Chong'er avoided the disaster in time, and ran away from the foreign country for 19 years, so he was spared, and then he was one of the five tyrants of the Spring and Autumn Period, that is, the Duke of Jin Wen.

"I know this person in Zhang Weicun, but I didn't expect the king of Qingjun to dare to do it as soon as he came, but it's a pity that an old fox and a little fox didn't tear his face and fight?"

Although there was no fight, Zhang Weicun finally bowed, set his name, and fell behind for a while, and Da Cai Weiyi did not fall, this worship, at least twenty percent of Xiangzhou turned to the king of Qingjun. ”

Ye Qing nodded and smiled, this is expected to be reported by the qishi, after this incident, the king of the county was originally bruised, and the purple qi deepened slightly, while Zhang Weicun was close to light green, turning blue-yellow, and finally fell behind for a while...... In the future, unless the general situation changes, the Cai Dynasty collapses, and the situation of Jiaolong being restrained is difficult to reverse. ”

"Is the canonization of the imperial court so easy to take?" Zhuge Liang said, shaking his feather fan.

"But the lord changes his mood and looks at it, although the county king is noble, his real power comes from the imperial court, and it would be good to be able to really control half of it in Xiangzhou, and the Xianghou Group is a hero in troubled times, and it can still maintain the pattern of fighting against the court, isn't it very good that this stalemate between the two tigers is fighting?"

"That's right. Ye Qing laughed silently, if he hadn't decisively defeated the state capital, he would have to be the same as Xianghou at that time.

Tear your face now?

That's not far from falling.

Ten days later, it rained lightly in Fengliang County, where Xiangzhou Prefecture is located, and at the Sanhe Water Port in the north of the county.

According to the report of the water government, it is the prelude to another **** wind and rain, the waves on the water surface are turbid, and hundreds of passenger and cargo sailing ships have got off the main sail and quietly anchored in the port to avoid the wind and rain.

"The passenger ship can be berthed, but our ship is unstable, and when the weather is clear, I will show you the black star, and time is running out......"

The group was inspecting the port and the condition of the embankment in the drizzle, led by a handsome young man with a deep voice, and the territory of Banzhou was firmly sealed, and the dragon's qi was diving deeper and deeper.

In the eyes of many new governors, the king of Qingjun ...... The fruit of magnanimity is far superior to Zhang Wei Village.

"Tell me how the North Embankment has recently breached. ”

"Your Majesty, the situation is very bad, the north embankment is 3 zhang higher than the flat ground, and there is water on both sides of the embankment, which has always been a dangerous work. ”

"After the breach, its main stream went straight to the county seat, passed through Changlu Town, ran through the official road, and drowned 7,000 people......"

While an official was reporting the water situation, the light of the intercom was lit up at the back of the line, and a magician passed the official to show the latest movements of the enemy.

"Your Majesty, the main force of the Marquis of Xianghou has arrived in Xiangyin County. ”

"Retract back to your hometown Dongtian?" asked King Qingjun about the details.

Listening to the master's detailed questioning, some thoughts came out of the following, and their eyes all looked at the magician.

"There is no cave in the sky, it is said that the Marquis of Xiang personally led troops to the embankment to reinforce, and repaired the gap with the local people, and said that there will be no leakage......"

"Huh...... It's really watertight. King Qingjun smiled and said with a pun.

Since the loophole has not been caught, everyone is not very interested, and the strength on both sides of the heart is equal, and the stalemate in Benju may have to continue for a while.

The official continued to report on the water situation just now, and finally remembered something and said, "...... Another thing is that yesterday the minister investigated the market in this county and found that the price of rice has risen abnormally high recently, and it broke through the red line 10 days ago, and it has risen extremely fast every day, and at this rate, it will be close to the highest point in history in two days. ”

Everyone looked at each other, and there were no stupid people present, and they all knew that this red line was a special assessment standard for Xiangzhou as a grain producing area, and it was taken as the annual average of the highest grain price during the historical disaster period.

This is a rare number in the world, and even in peacetime, it is connected and shared with the water government system.

To put it more clearly, in the entire Kyushu land, the official government in the world, as well as the Black Vein Water Mansion, the underground Fire Mansion shared by the white, red and yellow veins, and the Qingmai East China Sea Trade Wind System are all basically independent like black boxes, but they will not make a single mistake in the number of key negotiations, and the red line of rice prices is even a tacit practice that the family tacitly abides by.

King Qingjun knew that his subordinates would not falsely report this kind of thing, so he frowned: "Taiping Lake has been sealed for water storage, the execution ports downstream are also being repaired, and the state governments have released grain to stabilize the market, how can the price still rise?"

"Where is Shi Shaozheng, why didn't you tell me ten days ago?"

"Minister...... The minister is here. ”

Shi Shaozheng, the chief official of the Gu Division of the state capital city, came out of the ranks, sweating coldly, unable to say a word, these days the prince's mansion is busy seizing the territory and departmental fields that Zhang Wei Village has withdrawn, the military generals are busy monitoring and guarding Zhang Wei Village, and the civil officials also have to walk up and down to give gifts and shoot horses, who still thinks about the price of grain?

King Qingjun glanced at it, and also knew the reason, so he couldn't be harsh for a while: "Don't take it as an example, now explain the specific situation." ”

"Yes!"

Shi Shaozheng wiped his sweat: "The minister thinks that there are many possibilities, and there are occasional fluctuations, so I don't dare to speculate for the time being, and I still need to obtain the price of rice in the whole state...... It would be more prudent if you could get the price of rice under the rule of Xianghou, or even the general situation of rice prices in other states. ”

"Huang Huiwen, you cooperate, in my name, send a message to the ten downstream states to inquire about the changes in grain prices. ”

Huang Huiwen should have heard it, but asked as usual: "Anzhou, what about Yingzhou?"

These two states are close neighbors to the west and the north, and they are not good neighbors, and the king of Qingjun raised his eyebrows: "This little thing, I expect that Brother Wang will give me face, as well as Hanhou...... No matter how close Ye Qing is to the natives, he also knows that the foundation is in my big Cai Yingzhou, not somewhere else. ”

Huang Huiwen bowed slightly, and he had an understanding of the tone of the text, and immediately asked people to use an umbrella to cover the rain, and began to draft the draft on the spot.

...... When the inquiry letter arrived in Yingzhou, it was in duplicate, and because there was still zΓ i on the surface of the state capital, the first copy was to the governor's mansion first.

In the poolside pavilion in the backyard, the governor Cao Cao was enjoying the early spring breeze, and by the way, he was enjoying his wife and concubine, and sneered when he saw this: "Grain...... If you want to be burned out of grain and grass, you don't know it, Yuan Benchu is smarter than these people, you all take a look. ”

Mrs. Ding and Mrs. Bian glanced at each other, but only smiled without commenting: "The concubine doesn't know very well." ”

They just came up from the lower ground, and they read the popular half of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" on the market, and they were also shocked, but the real person's self-awareness was stable, and they quickly identified with their origins...... At this time, when I heard my husband say this, I tacitly agreed, but I didn't say much.

Qin Wan'er glanced at them, remained silent, picked up the text and looked at it, and then it became clear.

"It's not that the king of Qingjun is stupid, the husband or the land has lived for a long time, and he has forgotten the conventions on the ground for a while, who dares to go against the price of grain?"

As the daughter of the late Zai Fu Qin's privy envoy, the family history knows more hidden secrets, although he is secretly dissatisfied with her husband's second spring, but I heard him say that she is a woman who has been with her for decades, and her own family has been gradually used to him tossing these nights......

Her cheeks were slightly red, and she stopped thinking and explained to her husband: "The Taiping Lake Water House system has intervened, and no one believes that someone really eats a large amount of money, most of them think that it is because the merchant can't sell the goods and then raise the price to speculate...... By the way, do you want to respond?"

"Don't worry, don't worry. Cao Cao touched her silky waist, deep inside, and a smile filled the corners of his mouth.

It is a joy in life to kill the enemy and raise his wife and daughter...... Isn't this exactly the method of Taoguang to cultivate obscurity?

It's a pity that I don't know the skills of Liu Da'er weaving straw shoes, otherwise His Majesty would understand what I mean better.

"How Hanhou returns, I will return, Wan'er, don't think about it, Lao Ji is in the future, I have my own time to use martial arts. ”

............

Ye Qing received the inquiry letter on the dock of Sanshui County, and the Governor's Mansion responded to the inquiry, and smiled for a while: "Tsk, it seems that the division of the Qing County King's own family will not stop, and I can't see that I am safe and stable, so I will provoke it." ”

Zhuge Liang waved his fan to compare the two letters, and he also understood: "The content is not bad, and the tone is different, but the lord is sorry for the master to move the flowers and trees with one hand, and this hoe is dug into the corner of the iron wall." ”

"Meng Dezhiming, I'm still relieved. Ye Qing flicked his fingers at the flames, burned the secret document of the Governor's Palace, and asked, "How about the grain collection in the states now?"

"The south of the Changhe River mainly harvests rice, the north mainly harvests wheat, the special fund reserves can be used up in five days, the other party's investigation and response is late, other states in the grain market is not our heart to plan, everywhere busy disaster relief and suppression matters, it takes a while to integrate the number of jΓΉ, feedback to Xiangzhou takes a while, if it can be completed within five days is already fast, will not affect our actions. ”

"That's good, by the way, if you still have time, you can raise funds from each family, take advantage of the last wave to collect as much as you can, after this village, there will be no such store, how much permission you want, I will give you as much permission." ”

Zhuge Liang was angry, and smiled bitterly: "It is estimated that by the end of the month, the truth will be revealed, and the lord will be the enemy of the north." ”

"Wait until they can survive next month, and then come to me to settle accounts, and I'll do it. Ye Qing said with a calm smile.
