Chapter 340: Leading
The daughter can become the prince's side concubine, and Boss Zhang is also satisfied, and when he sends his daughter out, Boss Zhang returns to Chu as planned. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoDue to Ma Jichang's suppression of the aborigines of Chu State, coupled with the harshness of tea purchase and tea tax payment, the contradiction between the powerful and the prime minister in Chu State is on the verge of breaking out.
The Zhang family was originally a local of Chu and had a large tea garden in Chu. These tea plantation owners have hundreds of teas and thousands of teas. The Zhang family belongs to the owners of a large tea plantation with thousands of tea lichens, and Boss Zhang is the leader of the tea plantation owners' guild. The tea tax was the main source of tax in the Chu State, and the Tea Garden Lords' Guild was a great force that could compete with the government in the Chu State.
Soon after Li Chengyu got married, Zhang Zhixing was going to Rongzhou to take office. Li Chengyu appointed Wei Youqingchen as the governor of the palace and went to Rongzhou with Zhang Zhixing. The governor of the palace is a retainer of the royal palace, and is not counted in the ranks of the court officials who take the money, but only a special position for the convenience of acting, and the authority can be large or small. Wei Youqing has no fame and cannot be an official.
Because Webster was a prisoner, his family was not eligible to participate in the imperial examination. If Wei Youqing wants to gain fame, he must register in Leizhou in the name of Shi Le'an. Shi Wen'er didn't agree with him doing this, first, Shi Wen'er didn't want Wei Youqing to follow his surname, and secondly, once he became an official, it was easy to show his feet in such a sensitive matter as his identity. Besides, if you enter the imperial examination and rise to the next level, it is better to stay by Li Chengyu's side all the time and take Li Chengyu's shortcut, which will be closer to the center of power.
And Sun Boning and the Wu brothers next to Li Chengyu, if they want to participate in the imperial examination, they need to register in Jiangnan, and after the examination, Jiangnan will send Luoyang to participate in the palace examination to take the Jinshi. The three brothers are now studying hard and preparing to take this year's big exam.
Let's say that Zhang Zhixing brought his own 3,000 personal soldiers, and the group walked to the outside of Rongzhou City, and from a distance, they saw that the open space outside the city was full of people. There is a column of civilian officials, a column of military attachés, and behind these officials is the Rongzhou army in black military uniforms.
The first one to ride was a person wearing a red civil official robe, who was Lu Liangjun, the judge of Rongzhou. Standing with him was a Shatuo military attache in black armor, but it was Liu Huadong, the envoy of Rongzhou.
When everyone saw Zhang Zhixing and others approaching, they all dismounted and came forward. Zhang Zhixing also got off the horse, exchanged a few words with the officials, entered the inner city of Rongzhou together, and came to the mansion again. Wei Youqing naturally knew the purpose of Li Chengyu letting him accompany Zhang Zhixing to come, and he had already passed the news to Lu Liangjun in private, and he silently waited for the officials to finish the official article, and said to Lu Liangjun:
"Lu Jusi, the king of Chu was sealed by Emperor Zhu Liangwu, and he is actually the remnant of Zhu Liang. Since Li Xuan founded the country, they have built their own imperial court, not the central government. He also took advantage of the fact that I had no time to look south, and repeatedly violated the border of Rongzhou. Because Lingnan wanted to support the imperial court to rectify the northern Xinjiang, he had no choice but to let it do evil and bring disaster to the people of Rongzhou. Now the Lord is wise, instructing Lingnan to crusade against the traitors, and sending Zhang Assassin Shi to sit in Rongzhou, which is actually the backing of His Royal Highness King Naichen in Rongzhou, and it is a major concern. This battle involves the lives of many people in Rongzhou and Chudi, and I hope that Lu Jusi can do his best to rectify and maintain, assist Zhang Assassin History, and help His Royal Highness King Chen save the people from fire and water, and live up to the trust of the Lord. ”
Although Wei Youqing is only twelve years old, he has a mature face because of his early wisdom, and he deliberately added internal force to his words, so he is low and pleasant, not like a child's voice. Everyone didn't know his details, but they only knew that he was a close confidant of Li Chengyu, the king of Chen, and what he said was reasonable, and they all agreed convincingly.
Lu Liangjun heard the implication of these words, which was to warn him not to regard Zhang Zhixing as a high courtier, let alone to play a bad role in the military operation of Li Chengyu, the king of Chen.
Even if Wei Youqing didn't say it, Lu Liangjun wouldn't do such a stupid thing. It's just that although this Rongzhou no longer robs the boy since the death of Shangyang Zhenren, it is still his place to collect money, who knows that Gao Gong died of illness unexpectedly, if the court casually sent a civil official to take over, who knew that the son of Zhang Xianggong was sent. Although this son is loyal, he does not lack courage and resourcefulness, and he has Zhang Shuyuan as his backing, but I am afraid that it is not easy to deal with. Not to mention that Li Chengyu is going to come to Rongzhou to fight with Chu, his base camp will inevitably be built in Rongzhou, so Lu Liangjun will not dare to act rashly.
Of course, what should come will always come, and with the improvement of the camp, Li Chengyu led the troops into Rongzhou in batches. The generals who came with him included Liu Yuanlang, Wang Rongchang and other veterans of Li Yuehua, Liu Huadong, Liao Kai and others in Rongzhou, who were also brave and strategic, not to mention Zhang Zhixing, the assassin of Rongzhou, the tiger father has no dog son, and Zhang Shuyuan's five sons are all first-class talents.
Li Chengyu entered Rongzhou City, and saw that there was order inside and outside Rongzhou City, so many soldiers were all over the city, but the people here looked peaceful, and there was no fear of the imminent war, and said to Wei Youqing beside him with a smile: "The people of Rongzhou City have the courage to collapse Mount Tai in front of them without chaos." ”
Wei Youqing quietly pointed to the slender figure not far away who was dressed in white and was carelessly directing the people to transport food, and said, "The soldiers and civilians of Rongzhou are convinced of this Lu Xianjun's Taoism, as long as he is there, Rongzhou will not be chaotic." ”
Li Chengyu looked at Wei Youqing suspiciously, and said with a smile: "Youqing, although you have a deep relationship with the Jade True Temple on Pearl Island, I remember that you were arrested by this Jade True View Taoist when you were a child, and you were almost refined...... Have you forgotten everything? ”
Wei Youqing nodded and said, "Lord Wang, although Youqing was still young at that time, how could he forget it when Dad often mentioned it in fear?" It's just that my father also said that this Lu Xianjun does have some Taoism, which makes the soldiers and civilians of Rongzhou so convinced. Youqing thought that Gao Gong, the assassin back then, was also a celebrity, not a fool. He is willing to trust Judge Lu like this, then this Judge Lu always has his advantages. Youqing thinks that no one is perfect, and all people in this world will not be completely good or completely bad. ”
Li Chengyu smiled "hehe" and said approvingly: "You are young, it is also commendable to be able to see this." He pointed to the mountain outside the city and smiled at Wei Youqing, "Compare to one? See who runs up the hill first! ”
Wei Youqing smiled happily, and agreed with pride, and the two of them controlled the mounts under them together, first ran out of the city smoothly, and then tacitly smiled at each other, and invariably spurred the horses, two heroic figures, two black and shiny horses, the sound of horses' hooves, galloping towards the hillside in the distance.
The two of them reached the hillside with half a horse's head, and Li Chengyu said with a smile: "Youqing, your riding skills have improved a lot, and you are no longer the child who needs your brother to take you to ride a horse." ”
Wei Youqing said with a smile: "It's mainly because of my brother's guidance, otherwise Youqing wouldn't be able to run at this speed." ”
