Zhang Xingyi was walking back and forth, with a look of worry on his face.
Ever since the news came from Xiao Guan, she couldn't eat or sleep.
The most important thing every day is waiting anxiously for all the news from Guanzhong.
Although I received an urgent message from my sister from Hanzhong, Xiaoguan is now blocked tightly by Cao thieves, like an iron barrel.
Even a horse can't leave the confinement. How can I deliver this letter to the Guan family's sister?
Today, Zhang Xingyi only hopes that the sister of the Guan family will be able to bring that heartless person back as her sister thinks.
There were hurried footsteps outside the door. Zhang Xingyi's eyes lit up and he hurriedly stepped forward to open the door and asked:
"But there is news from Xiao Guan?"
The female secretary who was born in Nanxiang Academy quickly bowed:
"Back to my wife, it's not that Xiping County sent someone to escort the Hu people here, saying they wanted to see the head of the Xiaowei Mansion."
"Xiping County?"
How can Zhang Xingyi be in the mood to deal with government affairs at this time?
As soon as he heard this, he immediately said impatiently:
"Shouldn't we go to the Governor's Office for matters related to Xiping County?"
But the affairs of the barbarians are under the control of the school captain's office...
Zhang Xingyi thought of this and groaned again, wanting to disappear.
So he asked casually: "Who is this barbarian? Does he need people from Xiping County to escort him here?"
"The bald young patriarch asked."
"Huh? Is it him?"
Zhang Xingyi naturally knows who the young patriarch of the bald tribe is.
After all, as far as the Hu people are concerned, the Xianbei Hu people are currently the Hu people tribe that the Qiang Xiaowei Mansion pays the most attention to.
What's more, this bald barbarian is very different from other barbarians.
Among the other Hu people in Longyou, as soon as they hear Feng Langjun's name, which one will bow to him without bowing his head?
But they don’t!
They caused trouble several times, but in the end Alang used many tricks overtly and covertly to subdue them, and finally made them obedient.
I think back then, if the lady of the Feng family hadn't blown the pillow wind, I don't know how long the bald Khotan would have been kneeling in front of the school captain's mansion.
"Then let him in."
Bald-faced Khotan is an important chess piece placed by Alang in Liangzhou. Since he can come here in person, he must have something important to do.
A bald man wearing a woolen felt hat came in with his head lowered and crawled down:
"I have met Mrs. Zhang. May the God of Heaven bless you to be so beautiful forever!"
If anyone else had said this, it would have been frivolous, and there was no way he would be dragged out and beheaded at Madam Zhang's command.
But Bald-faced Khotan is a barbarian, so he can say these words with all his heart.
Zhang Xingyi's stern face finally softened a little, and she nodded slightly:
"Aren't you in Liangzhou? Why are you back again?"
The Liangzhou mentioned by Zhang Xingyi refers to the four main counties of Liangzhou that have not yet returned to the hands of the Han Dynasty.
After discussing with his own adults, Tufa Tianli decided to split the tribe into two. Tufa Tianli wanted to take some of his tribe members to Longyou to seek refuge with Feng Yong in order to find a way out.
Unexpectedly, Feng Yong felt that there were already enough barbarians in Longyou, so he refused to accept it, but he pointed out a clear way for him to go to Liangzhou.
Tufa Tianli was also obedient. After receiving Feng Junhou's advice, he returned to the West Sea and led his tribe from Dadou Bago through the Qilian Mountains to seek refuge with the Wei people in Liangzhou.
At that time, Xu Miao was beaten by Feng Junhou outside and lost his army. Inside, there were also aristocratic families secretly dissatisfied. He was really in a state of despair.
Unexpectedly, the Xianbei Hu people who originally lived in the West Sea came to him with their elite cavalry, which made him overjoyed.
With such a fine cavalry in hand, he finally gained some confidence.
Therefore, he had high hopes for this bald man, and he did not hesitate to use the already tight treasury to provide many good things for this elite cavalry.
"Back to Mrs. Zhang, I came back this time under orders from the Wei people to bring news back to the West Sea to Ah Da."
"what news?"
"Someone in Xiping County plans to cause rebellion, and the Wei people in Liangzhou plan to ask us to respond from the West Sea."
When Zhang Xingyi heard this, he stood up immediately: "What did you say? Someone in Xiping County is planning to rebel?"
Bald-haired Tianli nodded: "I heard that the Wei people had prepared this for a long time. There is a wealthy family named Guo in Xiping County who wants to cause chaos."
"So Xu Miao asked the villain to return to the West Sea, and wanted the villain to lead the tribe to respond to the matter from the West Sea."
"Guo family?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Xingyi took two steps back and forth, with a thoughtful look on his face.
All political affairs in Longyou were in her hands, and Feng Junhou often climbed onto her bed to discuss matters in the middle of the night. Naturally, she understood some of Feng Yong's thoughts.
For example, disintegrating aristocratic families and changing the rules of the game for wealthy families.
So Zhang Xingyi pays a lot of attention to the Liangzhou family.
What's more, this Guo family has a somewhat special status.
Because when Cao Pi was still alive, there was a rebellion in Xiping County, and the Guo family participated in it.
Later, after the Wei State re-pacified Xiping County, they liquidated the Guo family.
Not only the Guo family, but also many people were moved to Luoyang, and some Guo's daughters were even demoted to maidservants and not included in the palace.
If things ended here, it would be simple.
After all, it was a family that had no dealings with Cao Wei, so they were the ones to win over.
The key is that after Cao Rui came to power, he took a fancy to Guo's daughter and is said to be quite fond of her now.
Therefore, the Guo family in Luoyang also turned over.
The Guo family has always been in chaos, but it happened at this time. Zhang Xingyi instinctively felt that something was wrong.
Thinking of Cao Zhen's actions again, she had already made a conclusion in her mind: Cao Zhen was probably prepared long ago.
"Do you know how many people in Xiping are willing to join the chaos?"
Zhang Xingyi asked again.
Bald-haired Tianli quietly raised his head and glanced at Zhang Xingyi, and said hesitantly:
"I don't know about this. It's just that all kinds of news are spreading all over the sky now. Some say that Feng Langjun has been captured, some say that Feng Langjun has been defeated, and some even say..."
Since Xiao Guan first discovered Cao Zhen’s army, until now
Zhang Xingyi was originally irritated when this matter was mentioned, but when he heard this, he looked calm.
She glanced at Bald Kheli and smiled calmly: "Just tell me how many people in Xiping are willing to obey and cause chaos."
The bald barbarians were unruly and had made many secret moves before, so they were polished off by Feng Yong.
Zhang Xingyi sneered in his heart when he heard Bald-haired Kheli's words and saw his expression.
I know that the bald man is probably stubborn and has some thoughts that he shouldn't have.
Bald-faced Khotan apparently came here to report the news, but in fact he came here to inquire about the news.
He used the news that the Guo family in Xiping County wanted to cause chaos and came here to exchange for himself the real situation in Anding, fearing that he wanted to sway both sides.
But when it comes to scheming, even Feng Junhou is willing to bow down to the Zhang family's young lady.
Bald-faced Tianli wanted to play tricks in front of her, but he was afraid that he would have to go through ten or eight lifetimes before he could barely speak in front of her.
Therefore, when the bald Tianli heard what Zhang Xingyi said and saw that she was young but had sharp eyes, he immediately felt a little embarrassed.
"How do you know this? I just heard Xu Miao say that the Wei army will re-enter Longyou in the near future. Anyone who is willing to do something will be rewarded in the future."
"In addition, the news about Feng Langjun is unknown now, and many people are worried, so I took the risk and came here to know the exact news about Feng Langjun."
After all the talk, I still don’t give up and want to know the true situation of my Alang.
Zhang Xingyi curled his lips secretly and said: "If I say that the king has defeated Cao Cao's thieves, do you believe it?"
"Is this true?" Bald-haired Kheli blurted out.
Zhang Xingyi sneered: "If this is true, how many people will be disappointed?"
"Feng Langjun is the descendant of the mountain god. If he can defeat the Cao thieves, it is natural."
Bald-haired Tianli saw that Zhang Xingyi's expression was wrong, so he dared to ask further questions, and quickly praised Feng Junhou, who was serving as the mascot below Xiaoguan.
To be honest, Bald-faced Kheli didn't know whether he hoped that these words were true or that they were false.
If the Wei people win, then the benefits Feng Langjun promised to him will probably become the moon in the water.
After all, no matter what, Feng Langjun is a high-ranking Han official who is willing to share benefits with the Hu people.
Without Feng Langjun, who knows how those Han people would treat barbarians like themselves in the future?
But thinking of what Feng Langjun had done to him, Tufa Tiali felt that it would be great if he could teach Feng Langjun some lessons.
If the Wei people can defeat Feng Langjun and the Han people can defend Longyou, that will be the best result.
This will only make Feng Langjun rely on his own tribe in the future...
For a time, Baldy Kheli had so many thoughts going through his mind that he didn't know what he was feeling.
But he didn't know that when Zhang Xingyi heard what he said, he just thought he was farting.
Hu people are the most dishonest!
"Feng Langjun is currently fighting with Cao Zhenchen at Xiao Pass. The outcome has not been decided. I think it won't be long before news of a great victory will come."
Zhang Xingyi knew that if she told him the truth from the beginning, he would be suspicious.
On the contrary, if you don't give him a good look at the beginning, and then pretend to be impatient and say it out in the end, it will make him believe it more.
Sure enough, the bald Tianli saw that Zhang Xingyi had become impatient, and thought to himself:
The young lady of the Zhang family should be looking like this because she is worried about Feng Langjun. If she says she has won a great victory, I am afraid she is lying to me.
But the stalemate must be true, otherwise, I'm afraid she would have been confused long ago.
He was quietly calculating here, but Zhang Xingyi said again:
"Then Thief Cao asked you to respond to the Guo family's rebellion. You can just show off and lure out all those people with evil intentions. When the prince returns from victory, you will go and settle accounts with them."
Bald Khotan was overjoyed when he heard Zhang Xingyi's words:
"With the words of the little lady of the Zhang family, I will know what to do."
After Zhang Xingyi finished giving instructions, he waved his hand: "Okay, you can go down."
After the bald man respectfully withdrew, Zhang Xingyi's face suddenly darkened.
On weekdays, Alang is fine guarding Longyou, but now that he can't return to Longyou for the time being, so many people can't wait to jump out.
It seems that they have lived so comfortably in these two good years that they have forgotten what it means to be cruel and ruthless Xiao Wenhe!
Compared with Zhang Xingyi's anger in Longyou, Li Mu in Nanxiang was worried and happy.
"Mrs. Mu, is Feng Langjun really okay? We are all our own people here. If you have any needs, just ask them!"
"That's right, we don't understand how to go into battle, but we still have some money and food at home. If you need it, you are not a stingy person!"
"That thief Cao deserves to die!"
"I heard that the traitor Cao has come over from the Han River. I think it would be better for us to pool some money and food and let the court rebuild the militia, which can be considered as a contribution to the court!"
…
Nanxiang is now the lifeblood of many people. Now that Sima Yi is heading north along the Han River, if he is allowed to enter Hanzhong, Nanxiang will probably be hit.
No matter how these people wanted to make money from Nanxiang in the past, at this time, their thoughts are mostly the same: The Cao thieves must not be allowed to enter Hanzhong!
Seeing the representatives sent by each family shouting below, Li Mu felt a little dizzy.
The female student studying next to her quickly shouted:
"Quiet! It's so noisy, how can I hear you clearly!"
This made these people shut up.
But although they didn't speak, they all stared at Li Mu closely, just to see what she was about to say.
"Everyone is so considerate, I would like to thank you in advance."
Li Mu said, stood up and bowed Yingying, and then continued:
"It's just that Cao Cao wants to enter Hanzhong, but please don't worry, everyone. As far as I know, the emperor is also in Hanzhong now. The emperor is not afraid, so what do you have to fear?"
"Therefore, I dare to assure you that the Cao thieves will definitely not be able to enter Hanzhong this time. However, martial law will be implemented in Nanxiang from tomorrow. Please don't blame me for the inconvenience caused to you."
Sima Yi's army heard that it had arrived in Xinfeng County, so it was understandable that Nanxiang would implement martial law.
It's just that the real purpose of their coming here this time is naturally not just for this.
"Mrs. Mu, what happened to Feng Junhou? I heard that Cao Zhen led the army to Xiaoguan. Feng Langjun was still peaceful a few days ago, but now he has returned to Longyou?"
Someone below asked loudly again.
If Xiao Wenhe is safe, then everything will be easy to talk about.
If something really went wrong, everyone would have to make plans early.
There is such a big fat piece of meat in Nanxiang, and I don’t know how many jackals will come and bite it.
Thinking of this, many people couldn't help but swallow secretly when they looked at Li Mu.
This Li Mu was already extremely beautiful, and with the power he held in Nanxiang over the years, he also had a certain power about him.
What's more important is that having such a huge foundation in hand...
This kind of woman has haunted the dreams of many men. If something happens to Feng Yong, who will take advantage of her?
"How did I know about what happened before the formation?"
Li Mu said calmly, with a calm expression, "Let's just look at the news announced by the imperial court."
With a few words he dismissed everyone.
Although everyone was unwilling to do so, they had no choice but to leave.
Some people are worried, while others are happy.
"My lord, my lord! It seems that something has really happened to Feng Wenhe! In the past few days, Hanzhong has sent a lot of reinforcements to Longyou."
"In addition, Li Mu asked Nanxiang to be on emergency alert. It seems that even if Feng Wenhe is fine for the time being, he is probably in danger!"
In a certain courtyard in Hanzhong, someone said excitedly after inquiring about the news.
"There is still no definite news!"
"It doesn't matter, then Li Mu is our Li family after all. She claims to be fine on the surface, but who knows if she is lying?"
"If Feng Yong is really in trouble, is it possible that she can seek refuge with another family? Why don't we comfort her first and see how she reacts."
"As long as we discuss the interests with her, she is just a concubine in the Feng family, and her life and death are not up to her. Besides our Li family, who else is willing to protect her?
"But after coaxing her to hand over the things in her hands, our Li family can be considered healthy again!"
"Over there in the sixth room..."
"That old man in the sixth room knows the stakes best. They are too closely involved with Feng Yong. Among those guys who want to eat meat, who is not a bad wolf?"
"When the time comes, I'm afraid even the sixth house will be bitten by them. Will they be able to escape by then? Don't they need help?"
"rational!"
Xiao Wenhe didn't know that he was fighting hard with Cao Zhen in the front, and many people in the rear were already preparing to extend their hands into his territory.
