What happens if there is a lack of fat in food? It was difficult for Xu Ping to have an intuitive impression in his previous life, but when he arrived in this world, he understood the importance of oil. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoBecause of the lack of oil in the usual food, people in this era have a lot of food. Especially for workers and peasants, as well as non-commissioned officers in the army, it is common to eat more than a pound of rice at a meal, which is unimaginable in his previous life.

In terms of capacity, adding high-calorie foods to food can reduce the logistical burden, and the most suitable ones are naturally fatty meat and fat. It is a pity that the productive forces of this era have not yet developed to that point, and there is no rational understanding, and the main military rations are still rice and wheat. Xu Ping hadn't had time to reform yet, but Wang Gongchen thought of it by mistake.

While the two were chatting, Chong Shiheng hurriedly came in and said to Xu Ping: "Jieshuai, Liu Tuntian, who sent an envoy to Qingtang, has returned, and is now resting at the post station." and Lu Command, also came back together. ”

Xu Ping hurriedly asked, "Are they going well on this journey?" Are there any surprises? Have you seen me? ”

"When I saw it, I was very respectful to them, and I also promised the court to let him send troops to attack Yuan Hao. Everything went smoothly on the way to Liu Tuntian and his entourage, but when they came back, they encountered a slight accident when they encountered a surge in Weishui outside Qinzhou City. But fortunately, there was no danger and returned safely. Now they are resting in Yicheng, and they will come to the Shuai's Mansion to pay a visit to the festival handsome in a while. ”

Xu Ping nodded again and again: "Okay, good, it's good if it goes well." As for attacking Yuan Hao on the side, just listen to it, he is still too busy to take care of himself now, where does he still have the strength to take the initiative. The key is that he made his attitude clear to the court, and we will be able to handle the rest of the matter. - By the way, what about Master Chesong? How did the people of the Tibetan tribe treat him? ”

"The mage is a high-ranking monk, and he has the name of the law and purple clothes given by the imperial court, and the Tibetan department worships him like a god. The Tibetan people believe in Buddhism, especially the Guanshiyin Bodhisattva, and the Dharma name of Master Qisong Bodhisattva does not leave his mouth, which is the appetite of the Tibetan people. On the way back, because the Tibetan people were bent on retaining him, he had no choice but to stay in Xixi at Guomen Temple in Hezhou and preach Buddhism for several months. ”

Fan Qiang heavy Buddha, there are many monks. However, although those monks knew the Buddha, they did not know the precepts, in the words of the people of this era, that is, "the wife has no end in fornication, and the mouth and stomach are indulgent and never tired of meat, which is not the religion of Middle-earth." "An ascetic like Che Song is not like a god compared to the local monks there. In addition, he is proficient in Buddhism, and he is also a well-known monk in the Central Plains, and no one is his opponent when it comes to Buddhist scriptures.

Xu Ping nodded again and again: "Very good!" Very good! Although Buddhism came to the west, it has already taken root in the Central Plains, just like its own. The Central Plains restricted Buddhism, and so did preaching Buddhism to the outside world. Chuanyun: Use Xia to change Yi, believe it! ”

Qi Song came to the northwest alone, and the disciples around him were all sent by Xu Pingjun, if he could take root in the hinterland of Fanqiang, he would have a fixed source of information. In terms of foreign economic strategy, intelligence is particularly important, and not to mention whether the Dharma he preached can be turned into a summer, it is just to provide a foothold for those who collect intelligence, and he has made great achievements.

After asking Chong Shiheng about the general situation of Liu Jian and his entourage, Xu Ping instructed Tan Hu to call Wang Kai, Li Zhang, Tian Kuang and others over, and then send people out of the city to let Sang Yi, Zhang Kang, Gao Daquan, and Jingtai, who were stationed outside the city, return to Qinzhou tomorrow. When Liu Jian and others returned, they had a general idea of the situation in the Hehuang area, and the general policy of opening up to the west was about to be decided. According to Xu Ping's habit, it is good for the subordinate officials to have full discussion and unify their understanding.

Tan Hu promised, turned around and was about to leave, Xu Ping stopped him again and said, "By the way, the new Qin Fenglu's walking horse bears Wang Shougui and calls him together." Bear to participate in the military aircraft, these things are not good not to let him know. ”

The previous governor returned to Beijing to report on his work, and Wang Shougui went to Qinzhou at the end of April.

The horses are nominally under the division of strategy, but in fact, the border marshal can't control them, just a name. This position is somewhat similar to the military supervisor of the Tang Dynasty, but they do not have so much power, and they cannot meddle in specific military and political affairs according to their duties, but only independently report the information of the border areas to the emperor. However, most of the people who served as the bearers were eunuchs, and their relationship with the emperor was relatively close, and the secret music could often affect the court's evaluation of the border marshal, and the border marshal had to slap them.

Of course, with the relationship between Xu Ping and Zhao Zhen, and Li Zhang by his side, no matter who is in charge of it, it will not affect his status. Zhao Zhen sent Wang Shou to come with the rules, but it was just because this position had to be set up.

Wang Shougui is the younger brother of Wang Shouzhong, the capital of Shaanxi Road, and entered the palace as a small yellow gate because of his brother's grace. There was a fire in the palace one night in the Ming Dao, and he was the first to find out, and guided Zhao Zhen and the Queen Mother to a safe place, so he was promoted to the head of the inner hall. Zhao Zhen sent him to recite his old merits and give him a chance to make meritorious contributions, and the most important thing is that he is cautious and measured.

There are many people who go out to serve in the house, and there are many people who are high-flying and domineering, and there are also many people who abide by their duties, and they cannot be generalized. Especially when he goes to a minister like Xu Ping, there is no shortage of communication channels with the emperor, and it is self-defeating to fly and dominate.

The rain kept going, and there was water on the ground of Shuai Ya, and the raindrops hit it everywhere.

The official of the Shuai Mansion hurriedly cleaned up the official hall and prepared hot tea, and Xu Ping and Wang Gongchen went to the official hall to sit and gossip.

didn't wait long, Wang Kai, Li Zhang, Tian Jing and others arrived first, and as soon as they sat down, Liu Jian and Lu Fang arrived.

Xu Ping got up and said to the two: "This time I went to Qingtang to work hard, come, you first drink a bowl of hot tea to warm up." ”

Liu Jian hurriedly gave up his hand: "What kind of identity is Jingluo?" How can a lower official deserve such a heavy gift? Passed by the sitting. ”

Xu Ping sat down, everyone saluted, and sat down together.

After serving the tea, everyone drank the tea, and Xu Ping asked Liu Lian: "Is it smooth to go to Qingtang?" What is the attitude towards the imperial court? It is said that the situation in the Hehuang area is extremely chaotic now, what kind of chaos is it? ”

Liu Jian put down the tea and said: "The main reason why the lower officials are here is to announce the decree to the lower officials, and the affairs of the Qingtang and Tibetan Departments will be said by the lower officials, and the situation in Hehuang is still under the jurisdiction of Lu Ti, and it is his people who inquire about the news." ——When I saw him this time, I learned that because he was persecuted by Miao Chuan and Brother Zong, he couldn't stay in Qingtang City, and he had already arrived in Lijing City and was with the Qiao family. He was very pleased to learn that the court had crowned him, and he was very deferential to the court, and when we returned, he also sent an envoy of thanksgiving, and paid fifty horses. Now the envoy and the horse are in the post house outside the city, and they will come to pay a visit when they have the instructions of the scriptures. ”

According to the rules set down during the Tiansheng years, the envoys from the west all arrived in Qinzhou first, and the general ones did not advance, and were received by the governor of Qinzhou on behalf of the imperial court and sent back. Their tribute was no longer allowed to be transported by themselves or hired men, but by the armies of the states. The cost of the envoy was not small, and the imperial court did not want to be the culprit of injustice, so it was generally not allowed to enter Beijing.

However, in the end, it is different, Xu Ping still needs him through Luohe Huang, and it is still necessary to enter Beijing to take a look.

Liu Jian talked about the recent situation of the Qingtang and Tang Tribes, which was similar to Xu Ping's estimate, and at this time, he could only protect himself, and he was unable to attack the party at all. Song hoped that he would help fight the party, and he also hoped that the Great Song would send troops to help him suppress the enemy and breathe a sigh of relief.
