Early the next morning, Yingyu brought the second baby to thank Ouyang Shuo. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Cui Tianqi visited the lord and thanked the lord for his adoption." The second baby, who is now Cui Tianqi, respectfully kowtowed to Ouyang Shuo to thank him.

NPC kids grow up slightly faster than in the real world. When Cui Tianqi first came to the territory, he had dark skin and a thin figure. Although he was already eleven or twelve years old, he looked less than eight years old because of malnutrition. It's only been half a year, because the nutrition keeps up, and there is no need to do rough work, the bones of the body begin to grow rapidly, coupled with the edification of the private school, the once little mud monkey has already transformed into a handsome young man.

Ouyang Shuo was also full of emotion, "Get up!" Waiting for Cui Tianqi to get up, Ouyang Shuo continued: "Whether it is from literature or martial arts, I support it. Since you have decided to practice martial arts, you have to go all the way to the end, you have to learn something, and you have to be a useful person to the territory, so that you can live up to your grace, understand? ”

"Understood!" Cui Tianqi said solemnly.

Ouyang Shuo nodded and said with relief: "Go and see your master!" ”

Cui Tianqi was about to visit Song Jia, but was stopped by Song Jia's outstretched hand, and he couldn't help but wonder, not knowing what to do.

Song Jia turned her head to look at Ouyang Shuo and said, "Wuyi, before Tianqi apprenticeship, I want to ask you to be alone, okay?" "On formal occasions, Song Jia likes to call Ouyang Shuo the same game name as Bai Hua.

Ouyang Shuo was also inexplicable: "Who?" ”

"Banxia!"

"You want Banxia to serve you all the time?" Ouyang Shuo can only speculate that he has been busy with the affairs of the sect in the past two days, and Song Jia has not had time to recruit maids, and it is all Banxia serving her, so it is easy to use.

Song Jia shook her head and said, "I want to accept Banxia as a personal disciple." ”

Ouyang Shuo frowned, immediately guessed what was going on, his face changed, and he said in a deep voice: "Banxia!" ”

"Sir!" Banxia immediately came out of the queue and knelt in front of Ouyang Shuo, looking panicked.

"Say, what the hell is going on?" Song Jia would not accept Banxia as a disciple for no reason, Ouyang Shuo was sure that Banxia must have begged Song Jia last night. Song Jia was soft-hearted, and because she was Ouyang Shuo's maid, she agreed. Ouyang Shuo will definitely not tolerate this kind of unruly thing happening in the house.

The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became solemn.

Banxia saw Ouyang Shuo angry, and was even more frightened, so frightened that tears fell, and while kowtowing, he cried and said: "The slave knows that she is wrong, please punish the master." As Ouyang Shuo speculated, Banxia heard Ouyang Shuo promise to ask Song Jia to accept the second child as an apprentice last night, and he also moved his mind to learn from the teacher.

Banxia's village was ransacked by a group of rogues, and she escaped by hiding in a haystack. That night, she witnessed her relatives being brutally murdered by the rogues, and the seeds of hatred were planted in her heart, hoping that one day she could avenge her father and mother with her own hands.

When he came to Shanhai County, he was unexpectedly recruited into the Lord's Mansion by Yingyu, and Banxia had already rested his thoughts of revenge, thinking of living in the Lord's Mansion in peace. Who would have thought that things would take such a turn for the better, Song Jia came to the lord's mansion, opened the door to accept apprentices, and re-aroused the hatred in Banxia's heart.

Banxia didn't dare to ask Ouyang Shuo for fear that Ouyang Shuo would refuse. Last night, she took advantage of the opportunity to serve Song Jia to cry to Song Jia about her life experience and asked Song Jia to take her as an apprentice. Song Jia's heart softened, and when she saw that Banxia's qualifications were good, she agreed to come down and let her go to Ouyang Shuo to intercede.

Ouyang Shuo's face was gloomy, and he was about to expel Banxia from the Lord's Mansion. Fortunately, at this time, Yingyu stood up and persuaded: "Big brother, for the sake of Banxia's young and ignorant, you can bypass her this time." ”

"Yes, big brother, you just went around for half a summer!" Qing'er also pleaded.

In the end, even Zi Su stood up and knelt in front of Ouyang Shuo, "I beg the lord to be merciful." ”

Banxia was so young at all, and when she saw so many people pleading for her, she was even more overwhelmed, only then did she know that she had made a big mistake and caused everyone to suffer for her, and she was even more uneasy in her heart, and looked at Ouyang Shuo pitifully.

Ouyang Shuo sighed and said, "Banxia didn't keep his duty and broke the rules of the Lord's Mansion. From now on, he will be expelled from the lord's mansion and restored his free body, and from now on, he will no longer be allowed to show off outside in the name of the lord's mansion, otherwise he will not be forgiven. "There are no rules, Ouyang Shuo must make a punishment, otherwise how to lead the lord's mansion.

"Thank you, old man!" Ouyang Shuo raised and fell high, which was equivalent to acquiescing to Banxia worshiping Song Jia as his teacher, and Banxia was naturally grateful, but from now on, he couldn't help but feel a little melancholy.

A storm dissipated. Banxia and Cui Tianqi bowed to Song Jia, and both became Song Jia's personal disciples, the future senior sister and senior brother of the Dongli Sword Sect, and the future future is immeasurable.

After receiving the introduction of Banxia, Song Jia simply stopped recruiting maids, and the disciples did their best. Ouyang Shuo also had no intention of recruiting another maid, and only Zisu was left alone in the main courtyard to take care of him.

……

On August 25 of the first year of Gaia, Ouyang Shuo presided over the territorial government council.

Before the reports of the various departments, Xu Shuda, the director of the Department of Culture and Education, took the lead and solemnly bowed to Ouyang Shuo: "Lord Qiqi, the Department of Culture and Education has a proposal, and I ask your Excellency to approve it." ”

"What proposal?"

"A few days ago, my lord was canonized by the imperial court as the Marquis of Lianzhou. According to the etiquette system, those who are listed as princes should be honored as princes. Titles such as lords or lords should be abolished, and they should be uniformly honored as princes; Officials at all levels of the territory should also regard themselves as courtiers; The Lord's Mansion should also be changed to the Lianzhou Marquis Mansion to show orthodoxy. "Xu Shuda is standardizing the etiquette of the princes.

Don't underestimate a change in title, it actually represents a fundamental change in the nature of the territory. Before the feudal lord, the lord expanded his territory in the wilderness, and his status was not recognized by the imperial court. After the marquis, especially the marquis who was personally canonized by the imperial court, the representative territory can claim to be a prince, which is justifiable.

Originally, these should have been carried out immediately after the canonization. Xu Shuda, the director of culture and education, was also aware of this problem for a long time, but the day after the marquis, he encountered the promotion of the territory, and then Ouyang Shuo stayed in Luofeng County for three days. Xu Shuda calculated and simply waited until the government meeting at the end of the month to propose it.

"The minister seconded the proposal!" Fan Zhongyan immediately changed his title, no longer calling himself a subordinate, but instead calling himself a minister.

"The minister seconded the proposal!" Tian Wenjing responded.

"The minister seconded the proposal!" Everyone in the chamber stood up and bowed.

Ouyang Shuo's face was expressionless: "Quasi!" From this day on, he is one step closer to being alone.

After Xu Shuda stepped back, Qin Shijian, the director of the examination department, stood up: "Qi Yu Junhou, since the appearance of the Qinglou, the examination department has found that some officials have also followed in this fireworks place. How to deal with these officials is still up to the king. ”

Tian Wenjing, director of the cold face, proposed: "Wechen suggested that the Qinglou be directly seized to prevent future troubles. "Tian Wenjing is not used to seeing these literati, and his methods are extremely tough.

Ouyang Shuo shook his head, "This move is inappropriate, the Qinglou is a place of pastime for literati and scholars, and you can't waste food because of choking, let alone violently enforce the law, otherwise it will easily cause dissatisfaction among the people." On the other hand, Director Qin did the right thing, he would never allow the territorial officials to come to this place of fireworks for recreation, otherwise it would be a system. Passed on the Hou decree, investigated and punished once, and fined for three months; investigated and dealt with twice, and was placed on probation; He was investigated and dealt with three times, and he was directly dismissed from his post and investigated. ”

Ouyang Shuo was not curious about the ancient Qinglou, and wanted to explore, but the conditions did not allow it. As a lord, he must lead by example, and he can't bring this glamour to the officialdom. After Song Jia came, she completely gave up this thought.

"Whoa!" Qin Shijian retreated.

Tian Wenjing stepped forward again and bowed: "Qi Yu Prince, there is the latest progress in the affairs of the mountain barbarians." ”

"Oh? Come on! Ouyang Shuo was immediately interested.

"Recently, Wechen visited several mountain barbarian tribes one after another and heard the same thing. According to the Shanman, in the depths of the mountains, there is a huge bandit cottage, which often descends the mountain to plunder the various Shanban tribes, making them miserable. Hearing that our Shanhai County has a huge army, the tribal leaders frankly said that if we can help them get rid of the bandit cottage, then they are willing to cooperate with us and send elite soldiers to join the Shanhai County army. ”

"Bandit cottage?" Ouyang Shuo was puzzled, the ordinary cottage should not be enough to make Tian Wenjing so serious, with the military strength of Shanhai County, is there a cottage that can't be taken? !

"The prince didn't know that, according to the mountain barbarians, the group of thieves were extremely cunning and built the cottage on a dangerous peak. There is only one rugged path up and down the mountain, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack. The number of bandits is not a small number, although there is no specific data, but it is certainly not less than 10,000 people. Therefore, it is not easy to win this cottage. ”

Ouyang Shuo nodded, I see. It is indeed not easy to take down such a cottage, although there are many troops in Shanhai County, but most of them are cavalry or sailors, and there are less than 4,000 that can really be used to attack the city. With such a little person, Ouyang Shuo has no confidence.

"First, contact the Military Intelligence Department, let the mountain barbarians lead the way, and find out the details of the bandit cottage. Second, lobby the mountain barbarian tribes and ask them to send the mountain barbarian warriors to Shanhai County in advance and transfer them to the newly formed Third Brigade. With a two-pronged approach, Ben Hou didn't believe it, and he couldn't take a cottage. Ouyang Shuo clapped.

"Whoa!"

"At present, the third brigade is still being formed, and after the formation is completed, it will also complete the task of suppressing bandits in the territory. Therefore, Director Tian, you have to coordinate the action schedule with the Military Affairs Bureau, so as not to let the Shanban tribe mistakenly think that Shanhai County is untrustworthy. When necessary, a batch of food can be donated free of charge to show sincerity. Ouyang Shuo is ready to play the grain card again, for these mountain barbarians, food is a life-saving straw, and it has been tried and tested.

"I understand, I will live up to the trust of the prince!" Tian Wenjing has been dealing with Shanman for a long time, and of course he understands Shanman's weakness. With Ouyang Shuo's promise, he was more confident to complete the task. (To be continued.) )
