Youzhou Governor Shi Zhao Hanzhang has three out of fifty this year. Although he was born in the family of a scholar and an official eunuch, he was skilled in bowing and horses at a young age, and his martial arts were outstanding. At this moment, when he pushed the door and came in, he was also dressed in a military uniform. Seeing this, Mrs. Wu hurriedly stepped forward to personally untie the big coat on her husband's body, and when she saw Du Sanniang's salute, she smiled and said: "Du Niangzi doesn't want to laugh, Zhao Lang is informal, he just came to my bedroom from outside, but he was disrespectful." ”

Regardless of whether it is true or not, but Zhao Hanzhang came in person, which shows his attitude, therefore, Du Sanniang can't help but smile and say: "Zhao Changshi's heroic and majestic posture is really admirable." The concubine is a young junior, and it is already a blessing to be able to meet Zhao Changshi, how can she be disrespectful? ”

Zhao Hanzhang smiled slightly, and then said without looking back: "Ruoxu, it so happens that your niece is here, don't avoid it, come in and talk together." ”

Du Sanniang was ordered to see her uncle Du Fu here, and she couldn't help but be surprised when she heard this. Although his uncle Du Fu finally ended the long dormant period of his career at the end of last year and reactivated, Zhao Hanzhang also contributed a lot, but as the Cheng of Yuyang County, he was in the Youzhou Governor's Mansion at this time, which is enough to prove that Zhao Hanzhang is afraid that he is often summoned to him. Otherwise, her whereabouts had always been very cautious before, and even if Zhao Hanzhang was the governor of Youzhou, he would not pay attention to her as a woman. So, after Du Fu came in from outside the door, she naturally bowed very respectfully, and after Zhao Hanzhang sat down in the main seat, and then asked her to sit down, she waited for Du Fu to sit down.

"Youzhou bitter cold, every year in winter, charcoal consumption is countless, even if there are many charcoal pickers, sometimes it is still not enough, if Yunzhou can supply charcoal, not only Youzhou military weapons supervisor, is the governor's mansion and the upper and lower military and civilian, will benefit a lot. I really didn't expect it, I thought that Du Changshi dredged the Yunzhou Imperial River in order to transport Jianghuai grain north to Yunzhou, but I didn't expect him to think of this coal silently. It is worthy of Du Changshi, who stabilized the situation when he first arrived in Yunzhou, and then thwarted the Turks and Xi people's attacks.

Zhao Hanzhang seemed to be in a very good mood and praised Du Shiyi endlessly. Although Du Sanniang said a few words of humility for her brother, she also keenly felt that Zhao Hanzhang was very conceited, and the condescending feeling between his words and regarding Du Shiyi as a junior was particularly obvious. Although it is true that the elder brother is difficult to compare with the other party in terms of age, seniority and official position, she still secretly thinks about it.

knew that those subordinate officials in Yunzhou could not leave the territory of Yunzhou without authorization, so Zhao Hanzhang did not have too much courtesy to Du Sanniang, a female streamer. After a few words of praise as a greeting, he went straight to the point and said: "Please tell Du Changshi after Du Niangzi goes back that the price of charcoal is now in three Wen, and sometimes in winter, these charcoal from Yunzhou will be purchased by the Youzhou Governor's Mansion at a price of two Wen per catty." Before the Sangyu River breaks off, please send a million catties. As for the grain ships needed by Yunzhou to go north, I will naturally open the door to convenience. ”

Since Zhao Hanzhang said it so directly, Du Sanniang was not perfunctory, and immediately agreed. Next, Zhao Hanzhang didn't seem to have the intention of continuing to talk about this matter, but asked Du Sanniang about the details of last year's Xiren's department and the attack of the subordinates, but Du Sanniang just arrived in Yunzhou this year, some hearsay, some are not very clear, so after sitting for a while, Zhao Hanzhang's interest was not great, and he finally got up from his seat

"There are still some affairs to deal with in the Governor's Mansion, so I won't accompany Du Niangzi much. If there is another mansion in Youzhou, your uncle and nephew might as well go home and talk slowly. If you are empty, you don't have to rush back to Yuyang, it's not too late to set off tomorrow. ”

Du Fu hurriedly thanked respectfully: "Yes, thank you Zhao Changshi"

Du Fu's private house was still bought by him when he was a clerk in the Youzhou Governor's Mansion, and when he returned to Beijing, he once planned to sell it, but he only rented it out after thinking about it, and as a result, he really met the discerning Zhao Hanzhang because of his familiarity with Youzhou, and after Zhao Hanzhang took office, he returned to Youzhou because of his recommendation. Although he has settled in Yuyang most of the time, this private house has not been rented out anymore and has been more carefully maintained. At this time, he invited Du Sanniang to enter the door, and he smiled reservedly: "When Eleven Lang first came to Huairen, everything is still used to it?" After all, Huairen is new, and poor conditions are inevitable, so he suffers. ”

Because he was too indifferent to the pair of nephews and nieces left by his brother back then, Du Fu's career was not smooth later, whether it was Du Shiyi or Du Sanniang, there was always some compensatory courtesy. Especially for Cui Jianxuan, a niece and son-in-law who was born in a famous family and his father was knighted as Zhao Guogong, he was even more polite. Therefore, perceiving Du Fu's subtle change in attitude, Du Sanniang smiled slightly: "With Uncle Lao's memory, everything is fine with Cui Lang." He is not a person who is afraid of hardships and dangers, and naturally he will not be afraid of hardships. However, my uncle is now deeply appreciated by Zhao Changshi, and it is very smooth to come to Yuyang as an official? ”

"It's all thanks to Zhao Changshi." Du Fu has always wanted to find an opportunity to talk about his affairs in Yuyang, since Du Sanniang asked, he said with a smile, "Yuyang County ordered Fan Mingfu to fall ill at the beginning of the year, and Zhao Changshi sympathized with his age, so he ordered me to temporarily take Yuyang Order, and know the camp." In the past, Zhao Changshi was slightly more advanced than our army, and he said that if the Sima of the Jingsai Army was vacant, he would definitely recommend it to me. ”

Zhao Hanzhang actually valued Du Fu like this

Although Du Sanniang is a woman, she knows what important position Yuyang County has in the whole Youzhou. There has always been a proposal that Youzhou is too big and should be divided, especially with Yuyang as the state and one more state. The Jingsai Army was located in Yuyang County, with 16,000 officers and soldiers stationed there, and 500 horses. Even if most of them are infantrymen, it is obvious how important the two positions of Yuyang Ling and Jingsai Army Sima are, no wonder Du Fu would look down on Cui Jianxuan, a newly placed Huairen Ling. In Yuyang alone, there are nearly 10,000 people. I'm afraid that now, Shi Du Shiyi, the governor of Yunzhou who is in charge of tens of thousands of people, may not be in his eyes

Since childhood, she and her brother have depended on each other, Du Sanniang will observe words and feelings, and found that Du Fu paid attention to her expression while speaking, so she smiled and quietly complimented him. Although she is not a clan woman in the Cui family, she has a lot of personnel entertainment, and her skills are not inferior to Du Fu. After going back and forth to test the roots, Du Fu couldn't hold his breath earlier than her.

"Thirteen Niang, although you and Nineteen Lang have now started a family, you are my nephews and nieces, although some words are not good, I still want to remind a few words. Don't be too anxious to do things, and don't covet any credit. Nineteen Lang has often been compared to Yuwen Xiangguo over the years, don't think that this must be a good thing. Don't look at Yuwen Xiangguo, he has already worshiped the prime minister, but if you want to talk about the foundation, he is still too shallow, but he still thinks about his words in the court. What's more, he had pushed Yan Guogong down for a few days, and he was driven out of the capital after losing both. I don't know how to reflect on the lessons of the past, and this time I just entered the political hall and thought about calculating people......"

What Du Fu said next, Du Sanniang didn't have the heart to listen. If it weren't for the fact that she still had to maintain the appearance of being respectful but still a little impatient, so as to make Du Fu feel at ease, she couldn't wait to turn around and leave immediately. Fortunately, the more annoying aunt Wei was not there, so she patiently perfunctory Du Fu for half an hour, and after explaining a little bit about her brother's happy son and all that Yunzhou could say, she finally refused Du Fu's retention and said goodbye on the grounds that she could not worry that a pair of children in the family would leave early.

As soon as she sat down in the carriage outside, she clenched her fists fiercely, and as the carriage gradually moved forward, she suddenly called out, "Chibi"

This time Du Shisanniang came to Youzhou, in order to protect her safety, Du Shiyi not only carefully selected thirty elite palace guards in the Governor's Mansion, but also sent the most powerful Chibi around her to her. Hearing this call, Chi Bi immediately realized that there might be something wrong with the conversation between Du Fu and Du Sanniang. He immediately ordered the car to stop, and then drove the coachman to the side to ride his horse, and sat on the wheel himself. Sure enough, after this small change, soon, Du Sanniang's command came from his ears.

"You go back to Yunzhou quickly to inform my brother, I'm afraid there is something wrong with Chang'an Yuwen Xiangguo. Brother once made a fuss about recommending him in the past, so don't get involved in it. ”

When coming from Yunzhou, in order to ensure that there would be no danger, Chibi escorted Du Shisanniang from Yunzhou to Shuozhou, and then entered Hebei through Daizhou Ulzhou to Youzhou. However, Chibi was ordered to send a message at this moment, and in order to facilitate the itinerary and not be noticed, he took the old road of Du Shiyi's northward view of the wind in the eighth year of Kaiyuan, and went straight to Yunzhou from Ulzhou. This road is less than 900 miles, he traveled day and night, it only took two days and two nights, and when he arrived in front of the Yunzhou Governor's Mansion, his eyes were already red, and the whole person was dusty.

"Lord Lang is in the Governor's Mansion?"

Seeing that Chibi came back in such a hurry, the one led by the guards in front of the door hurriedly spoke: "Chilang is a step late, and a messenger has just arrived in the court, saying that Bixia is extremely concerned about the movements of the Khitan and Xi people, and Bixia is also very concerned about the situation in Yunzhou, so he ordered Du Changshi to report on his work in Beijing." Du Changshi just set off a day ago. ”

In this way, if he takes the road of Lingqiu in Ulzhou, he may catch up with Du Shiyi directly in Shuozhou? It's too much of a rush

Chibi was annoyed in his heart, took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Change me a fast horse, I will immediately go to chase the lord of Lang"

"This ......" The guard was originally obedient to Chi Biyan, but now he had to say bluntly with a bitter face, "It's easy to prepare a horse, but this time Bixia seems to be very anxious, so Du Changshi Chiyi returned to Beijing to report on his work." Even if Chi Lang rushes without sleep, I'm afraid it will take at least three or even five days to catch up with Du Changshi.

It turned out to be a gallop back to the DPRK to report on work?

Chibi only felt that the whole thing was unspeakably strange. Although he was tired and wanted to die, he turned his heart and said: "Don't talk nonsense, go and prepare the horse, I'll go see the lady first."
