After Luo Junyao came to Zhaoyun City, apart from playing everywhere with Ruan Yueli every day, he was probably most interested in the little girl who was imprisoned in the Xuanwei Ambassador's Mansion.
Of course, Luo Jinyan was not so cruel as to imprison the little girl in a dungeon. Instead, he had her imprisoned in an empty courtyard in the backyard of the Xuanwei Ambassador's Mansion, and was specially guarded by people brought by Luo Jinyan.
The little girl can only be taken with her in her own room, not even out of the hospital, not even in the small yard.
At the moment, the imperial court has no plans to break up with Qiu Cibu, not to mention that the young patriarch of Qiu Cibu had supported Zeng Wei when he was isolated and helpless. This friendship cannot be ignored.
Therefore, apart from not letting the girl go out, the Xuanwei Embassy did not treat her badly in any other way.
Luo Junyao went over to take a look out of curiosity, and heard the girl talking loudly in the room all by herself. You didn't need to understand Nanjiang dialect to know that she was cursing.
After Ruan Yueli translated, Luo Junyao became even more curious.
This girl spent all her normal time every day scolding Luo Junyao.
Luo Jinyan met her sparkling eyes, raised his hand helplessly and patted her head, then walked past her and went inside.
In the study room of the Xuanwei Ambassador's Mansion, Xie Yan was giving instructions to Duiying and Xiying. When he saw the two coming in, he waved his hands to signal his subordinates to leave.
"Jinyan is back? Sit down and talk."
Luo Jinyan cupped his hands and said, "I'd like to thank you, Your Majesty, for traveling to Southern Xinjiang in person."
Xie Yan shook his head, glanced at Luo Junyao with a smile and said, "I originally planned to go to Huaizhou to see you, but it doesn't mean anything."
Luo Junyao walked to Xie Yan and sat down next to him with a smile. He looked at Luo Jinyan and said, "Brother, how are the Hongshan and Guhe tribes? Is Khenpo La causing trouble this time?"
Luo Jinyan said: "General Huaizhou and I led the troops over. The gap inside the Hongshan tribe and the Guhe tribe caught us off guard. Now Khenbura is leading a part of his tribe to flee south, probably because he wants to join Setu.
.General Huaizhou led his troops to pursue them, and after joining General Annan, they jointly destroyed them."
Xie Yan thought thoughtfully and said: "Three major tribes are causing chaos at the same time. Someone must be behind the scenes."
Luo Jinyan nodded and said, "I heard that you brought back the second elder of Qiu Ci tribe?"
Luo Junyao was a little disappointed and said: "The second elder of the Qiu Ci Department is a stupid idiot full of resentment. The person who contacted him is Sex Tu. He doesn't know much."
Not everyone is rational and must be 99% sure before doing something. Some people think that they can do it with 50% or even 40% certainty.
Luo Jinyan said: "It doesn't matter, I do have a lot of news here. Setu is indeed the illegitimate son of the former leader of the Hongshan tribe, but he did not grow up in southern Xinjiang."
Luo Junyao couldn't help but blinked when he heard this, "Brother, are you trying to say that he grew up in the Qi tribe?"
Luo Jinyan smiled and said: "That's not entirely true, but he was indeed outside the Great Wall before he appeared in the Hongshan tribe. He was originally supposed to be under the command of King Qi, but he was found by Bai Jingrong after King Qi died.
Although Setu ran away, we went to capture the Qi envoy who came with him, and we can confirm that it was Bai Jingrong who instigated Setu to start the war in southern Xinjiang."
Xie Yan frowned and said: "So, this sex figure never expected to become the leader of the Hongshan tribe?"
Luo Jinyan sighed, "He killed all the children and close blood relatives of the old patriarch of the Hongshan tribe. I'm afraid he didn't rush to become the chief of the Hongshan tribe in the first place."
"Why did Khenpo La collude with them?" Xie Yan asked.
Luo Jinyan said: "Kenbura really wants to take advantage of the opportunity to unify southern Xinjiang. Setu and Khenbura made an agreement. As long as there is chaos in southern Xinjiang, Setu will give all the soldiers and horses under his command and the wealth of the Hongshan tribe to Khenbura.
.Coupled with the fact that Qiu Ci’s tribe has just been seriously injured, if the imperial court has no time to conquer the south, Khenpo La can indeed take the opportunity to unify southern Xinjiang.”
Luo Junyao said: "How many soldiers and horses does Setu have? He killed the Hongshan tribe chief and sold the Hongshan tribe. Will the Hongshan tribe listen to him?"
Luo Jinyan said: "He now has more than 20,000 soldiers and horses under his command. They are not from the Hongshan tribe, but recruited from hundreds of tribes in southern Xinjiang. Many small tribes have no intention of competing for power, and they just want to make a living.
Just give me money."
They are the same as Luanyisi in southern Xinjiang, and many of them even dispersed after Luanyisi was wiped out.
Xie Yan asked: "Is it difficult to pacify southern Xinjiang?"
Luo Jinyan raised his eyebrows slightly and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, there won't be any trouble." Three years ago, it would have been really difficult. In the past few years, the imperial court has been recuperating and recuperating, which is still of some use.
"The troops and horses in Huaining and Ningzhou are enough to cope with the situation. There is no need for the court to add additional troops, horses and food." Although Luo Jinyan is now a civilian official, his job is that of a military commander after all. The official position of governor is also in charge of military affairs and people's livelihood, so he has a strong sense of strategy.
From the moment he took office, he has been consciously preparing for the possibility of war in southern Xinjiang. Once chaos breaks out in southern Xinjiang, regardless of whether the imperial court has support, even if there is, it will take a long time to arrive, and he may have missed it.
The best fighter plane.
After two or three years of rest and recuperation, even if there is no support from the imperial court, it will not be a problem to at least stabilize the situation, let alone destroy it.
Xie Yan nodded, "Then there's Lao Jinyan."
Luo Junyao didn't look relaxed. He looked at Xie Yan and asked, "Your Majesty, will you go to the northwest next?"
Xie Yan looked indifferent and said: "The Qi tribe... must be solved after all, and now is a good time."
Luo Jinyan raised his eyebrows, thought for a moment and smiled: "Yes, not long after the death of King Qi Xin, Bai Jingrong has not been able to completely solve the Qi tribe's nobles, and now there is a feud between his sons. It is indeed a great opportunity to solve the Qi tribe in one fell swoop. Bai Jingrong...
At that time, it is stirring up trouble in southern Xinjiang, and I am afraid that there is going to be a big move within the Qi people."
It is unlikely that the Qi tribe will invade the Central Plains. Now that the Qi tribe does not have the strength, it can only be because something big has happened within the Qi tribe.
Xie Yan just nodded lightly and did not speak.
After talking about the business, Luo Junyao followed Luo Jinyan eagerly when he came out of the study.
Luo Jinyan looked at her helplessly, "If you don't follow the prince, why are you following me?"
Luo Junyao smiled and said: "I haven't seen my eldest brother for several years. He doesn't seem to miss me at all?" They will leave southern Xinjiang soon. Xie Yan is so busy these days, so she won't cause trouble.
Luo Jinyan raised his hand and knocked on her forehead, saying, "Tell me, what's the matter?"
Luo Junyao rushed over and hugged his arm and said with a smile: "It's nothing, I plan to visit Sister A Rui when I pass by Huaizhou. Brother, how are you and Sister A Rui doing?"
Luo Jinyan was startled, but did not speak for a while.
Luo Junyao blinked and looked at him with some disappointment, "Are you two still standing still? Brother, can you do it?"
Luo Jinyan slapped her head angrily and said, "Don't talk nonsense all day long, you're so old and you still do everything right."
Luo Junyao couldn't help but rolled his eyes, "Do you think I'm the only one who's worried? Before I left, my parents asked me to see you, and Mr. Su. You are already very old, and you miss Sister Ari very much."
OK?"
Luo Jinyan sighed lightly, thought for a moment and said, "It's not like we're standing still."
"Oh?" Luo Junyao suddenly brightened up, "Is there any progress? Is it a fake show? Am I really going to call Sister Ari or sister-in-law?"
Luo Jinyan smiled and said, "She is your sister-in-law."
Luo Junyao complained in his heart, how strange!
The two of them were walking side by side in the yard. Luo Jinyan said: "When I go back this time, I will have a good talk with Ari. You don't have to worry about us anymore. If you have this free time, you might as well think about it. It will only be three or four years before you get married to the prince."
Now, is it time to have a child?"
Luo Jun waved his hands and said: "I'm still young. Besides... In this situation, how much trouble will it be if we have a child? We are not ready yet."
Luo Jinyan said: "The way you think about it, you will never be ready."
After all, Luo Jinyan was born and raised in the Dasheng Dynasty. Apart from avoiding the period of national mourning and filial piety, he had no idea that he would need to make any preparations for giving birth to a child.
Even if ordinary people need to make preparations, as the regent, can Xie Yan still have time to be completely idle? Maybe one day another troublesome event will happen, how long will it take to prepare?
Luo Junyao never expected that his eldest brother, who seemed to be the most open-minded and free-spirited, would actually join the ranks of giving birth.
"It can't be too early." Luo Junyao said, "You have to be at least twenty-four, right?" After all, the age is appropriate until you have finished college and taken two years of classes.
Although she has never lived a serious life at this age in her entire life.
When Luo Jinyan heard what she said, he didn't say much.
Just be aware of it yourself.
He only mentioned it as an elder brother, and he didn't have to force her to have a child. Anyway, Xie Yan was willing to take the pressure off for her.
Luo Junyao suddenly rolled his eyes, "Brother, you suddenly said this, are you trying to divert my attention on purpose?"
"What?" Luo Jinyan asked confused.
"That girl is locked up in the backyard."
Luo Jinyan said calmly: "That is the sister of the young patriarch of the Qiu Ci tribe. She is temporarily living in the Xuanwei Ambassador's Mansion. When the matter with the Qiu Ci tribe is resolved, Mr. Zeng will naturally let her go. What does it have to do with me?"
Luo Junyao nodded, "That's good, otherwise I will really complain to Sister Ari."
Luo Jinyan glanced at her and said, "Don't talk nonsense in front of Ari."
Luo Jun smiled and nodded repeatedly to express his understanding.
Xie Yan and Luo Junyao came to southern Xinjiang, but not many people knew about it.
It was silent when it came, and it was silent when it left.
Things in southern Xinjiang cannot be completely solved overnight. Luo Jinyan alone is enough.
Dasheng's real enemy has always been in the northwest.
After leaving southern Xinjiang, the group entered Huaizhou.
Huaizhou is located in the southwest of Dasheng. It has been a barren land since ancient times. It has a saying that there are eight mountains, one water and one farmland. Huaizhou City, where the Huaining Governor's Mansion is located, is actually not much bigger than Zhaoyun City in southern Xinjiang.
.
Xie Yan and Luo Junyao traveled incognito all the way, and even the court only knew roughly where the regent went for inspection, so the group did not attract much attention when they arrived in Huaizhou City.
After entering the city, looking at the pedestrians coming and going on the street, as well as the vendors and merchants on the street, Duiying couldn't help but said: "Huaizhou doesn't seem to be as barren as the legend says."
Whether a place is good or not can be determined by looking at the expressions on the people's faces.
If all the people look like dead wood and are indifferent, then it means that no matter how well they are decorated on the outside, it will be useless.
If the people have smiles on their faces and are full of vitality, even if this place is not yet rich, there will always be hope.
When a vendor on the roadside heard this, he couldn't help but raise his head and look at the few people.
"Is it the first time for these nobles to come to Huaizhou?"
Luo Jun shook his head and smiled: "No, it's our first time to Huaizhou."
The hawker had never seen such a beautiful girl before. Facing Luo Junyao's smile, he felt a little dizzy, and the expression on his face became more and more attentive, "No wonder a few nobles don't know that our Huaizhou has only gotten better in the past few years."
If you guys had come here a few years ago, this city wouldn’t be so lively.”
Luo Junyao smiled and said, "Oh? Why is this?"
The vendor smiled and said: "Of course it's because of Mr. Luo and Madam. Those two are the saviors given to us in Huaizhou by God. Since Mr. Luo and Madam came to Huaizhou, our lives are getting better day by day."
Luo Junyao felt very good after hearing this, "I see, then this Master Luo is really powerful."
"No, Master Luo is the son of General Luo. I heard he was also a general in the past."
The hawker smiled and said: "I took a look at Mr. Luo from a distance, and he looked like a gentle scholar. I didn't expect that he was also a general who could win big battles! This is it!" The hawker gave a thumbs up to Mr. Luo.
It seems that the eldest brother has a really good reputation in Huaizhou, and Luo Junyao is also very happy for his eldest brother.
I chose something at the stall in a good mood, then pulled Xie Yan and continued walking forward.
Qu Tiange followed the two of them, with a shadow shadowing them beside him.
It is difficult for such a few people to walk on the street without attracting attention.
However, even if most people notice it, they will feel that these people are not easy to mess with, and will not take the initiative to provoke them.
However, this Huaizhou City is obviously somewhat different.
Something suddenly fell from the sky and hit Qu Tiange.
But with how skilled Qu Tiange was, it was natural that such a thing with no inner strength could not hit him.
He raised his hand and waved, and the thing was shot in a different direction and hit the side of the street.
Qu Tiange waved his hand casually without looking in the direction, and the thing happened to fall into the bowl of a customer eating noodles at a street noodle stall.
The guest was eating the noodles happily, but suddenly misfortune fell from the sky and he was splashed with noodle soup on his face.
Just as he was about to have an attack, he looked down and saw a delicately embroidered purse in his bowl. He couldn't help but be startled.
"What... is this?"
The person who lost his wallet was also stunned.
From the second-floor window on the street, a girl wearing a pink dress stared blankly at the scene downstairs, her delicate face turning red instantly.
Looking again at the tall figure who was throwing a dime of silver onto the noodle table without looking back and walking away, I couldn't help but hide my face and sob.
