There is never a shortage of news in the prosperous Chang'an City, and today all the gates of Chang'an and the Weiyang Palace have posted an imperial list. Some literate masters shook their heads and explained to the watchers.

"His Majesty means that he wants to send people out of Yangguan to the Western Regions to trade with the people of the Western Regions. As long as the caravan can be successfully brought back, the court will reward a thousand gold. Feng Tinghou! ”

The crowd of onlookers immediately exploded, and the ancestor had a legacy that he could not be a marquis unless he had military merits. Now he actually takes someone to the Western Regions to go around and can be a marquis? Although he is the lowest-level pavilion marquis among the marquises, he is also a marquis.

"I'll go, I'll go." A young junior listened to the old master's explanation, and immediately went to tear up the article. was stopped by a chubby middle-aged man next to him.

"You have thought about it, young man, this trade route is so easy to pass. Have you ever been to the Western Regions, where there are deserts? Don't talk about leaving, you can't see the edge. Nine times out of ten, people walking in it will not be able to get out.

And this road also passes through the territory of the Qiang, Donghu, and Xiongnu people. Which of these people is easy to provoke, young man, you can think about not sealing it yet, and then put your life inside. ”

The words of the middle-aged man were like a scoop of cold water, which instantly extinguished the enthusiasm of the young people. The young men who were eager to try just now all shrank their heads one by one, as long as the young man who was shouting about the unveiling of the list just now said with some disbelief: "Why do you know so clearly, could it be that you have walked by?" Didn't you coax us to get away, and you went to unveil the list yourself and then seal the marquis? ”

The crowd of onlookers immediately boiled over, and the buzz was noisy.

"Hmph, Lao Tzu kindly reminds you. But he has attracted such suspicion, and he is not afraid to sue you. Lao Tzu once worked as a driver and followed Yun Hou Ye to the Western Regions. What I said was what I saw with my own eyes in the Western Regions, and my life now is still blessed by Lord Yun. Fighting the Huns on the steppe made some small fortunes.

If there is anyone who is not convinced, just expose the list. Let's see if you can come back then. ”

"Yunhou can go, why can't we go." When the young man saw the middle-aged fat man say this, he shouted unconvinced.

"Hehe, you're right. Yunhou can go, you really can't go. Don't say it's you. Except for the people of the Yun family. Who can do business in the Western Regions? Even if it is a soldier of the imperial court, you ask them to dare to go to the Western Regions? If Lao Tzu hadn't followed Yunhou back then, he would have been caught by the vicious Qiang people and cooked and eaten. If you think your life is long, you will go, and Lao Tzu will not stop you. Hum! ”

After the chubby middle-aged man finished speaking, he walked away with his head held high and his face disdainful.

The same scene was staged in the imperial list of Chang'an City, Liu Che's recruitment list was hung for more than three days, and no one came to unveil the list. The young descendants of Chang'an were frightened by all kinds of bizarre legends in the Western Regions, although the money was good and the title was better, the most important thing was to have the life to spend and enjoy.

"Father, you have a really good idea. Let Luan Xiong's rangers give a speech. The emperor's recruitment list has been hanging for three days. Stunned, no one unveiled the list, and the young people in Chang'an were afraid that they would not be able to come back. ”

Canglan respectfully toasted a cup of tea, and the ginger was still old and spicy. Cang Jingkong just asked Cang Lan to say a word to Luan Xiong, and Luan Xiong, who was like a pug, immediately spread out his subordinates to scare the young people who seemed to have eaten Brother Wei.

"This person is the same, what is the purpose of fighting for fame and fortune all his life. It's not just to eat well, wear good clothes and make slaves call maids to play with beautiful women. The prerequisite for this qiē is to be alive. Only alive. to be able to enjoy this qiē.

The road in the Western Regions is an important source of wealth for the Yun family. If it is really trampled out by the imperial court. What do you want Donghu to do. Our little lady, how can you suppress those arrogant princes in Donghu. One is by the knife, and the other is by silver.

There are so many people in Donghu, and Batu can only be in charge of 50,000 or 60,000 soldiers there. It is rich to deal with any prince, but once the princes are united. That's thrilling, and the rest is only settled by silver.

After all, there is money to be made by following this queen mother. Abolish the king of Donghu and let our little master be the king of Donghu. Those nobles in Donghu can pass over, such as the silver is broken. Those Donghu nobles still didn't rebel? Hou Ye's painstaking arrangement in Donghu will be ruined.

Once the east is messing around, you will see another Xiongnu to the west of the Han Dynasty. Even more cruel and bloodthirsty than the Huns, at that time Longyou will become a place of misery. and Shuofang Yuyang those places have to fight. ”

Cang Jingkong said a lot, took a sip of tea and moistened his throat. Now Cangjingkong's days are free, and he takes his eldest grandson to play every day. It's okay to give my son ideas, and after working all my life, I think about it now, and this is like a person.

"Father, you said that the current emperor can't see this move?"

"Humph! It's not about the money, you look at Wei Qing's troubles every day. The Yulin has expanded again and again, and now it is almost 10,000 people. Raising so many soldiers, where does the money come from. It's not from the inner house of the Majesty, and there is still a two-color ball to support the money-making machine.

But now more and more soldiers are recruited, and they buy ordnance, horses, and food. Afraid that there would be no more two-color balls to support it, the emperor started the idea of a trade route.

In the final analysis, it was the Empress Dowager who held on to the talisman, and the emperor had to do so because he was worried about his own safety. Some time ago, there was a stir in the imperial court about the Minyue Kingdom and the Dongou Kingdom. Look at what those generals are in a hurry, but the empress dowager does nothing. Or let the generals not dare to speak out, according to the old man. This time, the Empress Dowager offended the generals, and some of the gains outweighed the losses. ”

"Father means that the generals are dissatisfied with the imperial court?"

"That's nature, doing nothing all day. If you don't fight, what will the generals get promoted. Everyone who wants to be a marquis wants to have red eyes, but the rules of death are there. Look at it, and soon there will be a lively look. According to the old man, Yan Zhu that kid is not as simple as mediation. If it is mediation, why should Wei Qing take the period gate Yulin to protect? ”

"Father means Jiangnan is going to be chaotic? Then do you want to send a message to Thirteen and let them be prepared. ”

Canglan has been in Jiangnan for many years and has a very good relationship with Zhang Shisan. As soon as I heard that there were changes in Jiangnan, I was a little breathless.

"Look at you like that, you can't store two taels of sesame oil in your stomach. Hou Ye has long been prepared, didn't your third uncle say that he took three thousand guards to Jiangnan.

This is the plan and preparation that Hou Ye made for Jiangnan, relying on our family's connections in Jiangnan. Plus Nianyi went back with three thousand guards. Even if you encounter the main force of Dongou or Minyue, I am afraid that you can fight with it. Don't worry about this, it's true that you're trying to mess up the trade plan of His Majesty the Emperor now. ”

Cang Jingkong hated Liu Che for putting him to death at the beginning, but now he has seen through Liu Che's intentions. He was thinking about how to mess up Liu Che's plan all day long, anyway, as long as he could make Liu Che unhappy, he would be very happy.

If Liu Che knew that letting Cang Jingkong go would cause such trouble, he would definitely regret not letting Tian Wei hack this old guy halfway.

"Hehe, no one has revealed the emperor list now, I'll see how the emperor will step down this time." Canglan knows his father's thoughts, and Liu Che is also happy to see Canglan.

"I can't say that, I'm afraid that there are two stunned people who want to be rich and dangerous. But it's okay to come up with such a stunned person, and let him go to you to write a letter to Batu. Donghu and Qiang people all listen to us. encountered those stunned people who killed things, and there was no return to the business. After a long time, naturally no one will do it.

As for the Huns...... Presumably, no one has the courage to go around the territory of the Huns, and the Huns can't get in now if they want to rob the Han. Where are the fools sent to the door and robbed by the Huns. ”

Cang Jingkong thought about it for a while, but still put his mind at ease. Don't worry about someone arriving in the Western Regions from the territory of the Xiongnu, even if you want to come back, it is a big problem.

"Well, let's stay in Chang'an. It is for this trade route in the Western Regions, in fact, Hou Ye is also. Forget it about using that introduction at the beginning, why bother fighting here all day long. If you are so tired that you die of a thief, it is better to ...... directly"

"Don't talk nonsense!" Cang Jingkong looked outside and stopped his son. Although it is in the Yun family, such words cannot be said nonsense. After the last incident, the imperial court monitored the Yun family much more strictly. Canglan has already disposed of the spies of the Imperial Lieutenant Agency more than once.

"Actually, it is also difficult for the Hou Ye, and the relationship between the princess is hindered in the family. It can be seen that if it weren't for the eldest prince, the princess would have been corrected a long time ago. Fortunately, after so many years, the princess has nothing to come out of. Otherwise, this matter of seizing the heir will give Hou Ye a headache to death.

There have been no good results since ancient times, and today's emperor is an excellent example. However, the abolished prince Liu Rong is not a good bird.

It's been almost a hundred years since the Han Dynasty, and now it's not the time of Gaozu. The Jianghan of the Liu family is already deep-rooted, and there are many princes and kings outside. There is a court in Guanzhong, don't look at the fact that you occupied Jiangnan at the beginning. If the Hou Ye really wants to replace the Liu family, there is no need for other princes in Jiangnan to exterminate you.

The best outcome of this battle is to lose both. Only the Huns were happy, and they could take advantage of the border air raids to plunder the Han border to their heart's content. Even after becoming bigger, he thought about attacking Chang'an and winning the Central Plains.

The Hou Ye saw this step, and the court also saw this step. That's why you're making such a big fuss. Now you can still openly hang around Chang'an Avenue. Do you think there are fewer people who hate you? Sue you, there are more people in Chang'an who want to pick your skin and eat your meat. If it weren't for the foresight of Master Hou, I'm afraid you would have been hacked a long time ago. ”

Cang Jingkong sighed helplessly, this son is good anywhere. There is no overall situation, and it is only suitable to be a general who charges into battle. But looking at the Yun family's generals, there is really no handsome talent who can take charge of himself. (To be continued......)
