In the check-in room, the sound of the piano stopped, and Ning Yayun said with some regret: "I have been away from Chang'an for many years, and I am suddenly a little nervous to be able to go back."
"When the army goes south, it will definitely be overwhelming." An Ziyu was also reluctant to leave the mountain gate of Northern Xinjiang, "Chang'an! I don't know if the Imperial College is still there."
A disciple appeared outside the door, "Headmaster, Secretary Ye."
"What's the matter?" Ning Yayun asked.
The disciple said: "An order came out from Jiedushi's house, and the army is preparing to assemble and go south."
"This day is finally coming." Ning Yayun stood up.
"Trying to rebel!" An Ziyu said with some longing.
"It's not about rebellion."
"What is that?" An Ziyu was confused.
"Counter rebellion!"
An Ziyu wanted to crack Li Xuan's head open with a ruler to see what was inside.
Ning Yayun slowly sat down, the corners of her mouth raised slightly.
"What is the world? Common people!"
An Ziyu said angrily: "Even I can see that this is a great opportunity, what kind of world is this?"
"Zitai thinks about the world, and you only think about metaphysics. That's the difference." Ning Yayun pointed to her temples, "That's the king!"
…
The soldiers and civilians of Northern Xinjiang are well prepared to march southward holding the banner of rebellion.
Therefore, when the news about Jiedushi's residence came out, everyone exploded.
"Counterinsurgency?"
Yue Er said in confusion: "That's the south! What does it have to do with His Highness?"
This is the doubt in everyone's mind.
Jiedushifu gave King Qin's answer.
"His Highness has said that the earth, regardless of north or south, belongs to him. People, old or young, are all his relatives."
A scholar murmured: "Is this the mind of a king?"
"This is the pattern." The companion beside him said: "While Chang'an was fighting for power, His Highness was thinking about the world."
"The earth does not distinguish between north and south, and people, regardless of age or age, are all His Highness's world and relatives. What a great spirit and broad mind!"
After hearing this, a man carrying a baggage into the city said to the people: "I was passing through Northern Xinjiang and wanted to visit Chang'an and find a knowledgeable nobleman to join me. I didn't expect the King of Qin to have such courage. Such people,
Be a hero."
Someone asked with a smile: "Then are you still going to Chang'an?"
The big man shook his head and said, "If you don't want to go, I will join the army right away!"
The big man asked about the location of the military camp and went straight there.
On this day, young men from northern Xinjiang enthusiastically joined the army.
…
"Your Highness, there are more than a thousand people who have surrendered to the army today."
Nan He came to report.
"This is an unexpected surprise." Li Xuan said: "I need to practice more closely recently, and give me more meat."
"yes."
Yang Xuan finished handling the official matters on his desk, called Jiang He'er, "Leave it to Liu Gong and the others."
Jiang He'er picked up the documents and asked: "My lord, Mr. Han and Jiang Cunzhong had been arguing for a long time."
"Yeah?"
Yang Xuan said calmly.
Later, Helianyan came.
"Your Highness, Jiang Cunzhong wanted to buy some meat and wine for the generals. Han Ji said that such matters would naturally be considered by the Jiedushi government, and the two started to argue."
Yang Xuan said calmly: "I understand."
He Lianyan resigned, and when she went out, Jiang He'er was waiting for her.
"What are they making trouble?" Jiang He'er asked.
"His Royal Highness wants to unify the universe, and he will naturally achieve imperial status in the future. And the ministers below are the meritorious ministers of Conglong. Who doesn't want to take a step further?"
He Lianyan said it lightly, but Jiang Heer was stunned, "Are you trying to fight for power and gain?"
"It used to be just a corner of northern Xinjiang, and there was nothing to fight for. Now it's the whole world." He Lianyan said, "Remember, don't get involved in those people's affairs."
Jiang He'er was relatively simple. If he was dragged into it, He Lianyan didn't dare to think about the consequences.
Jiang Heer was a little depressed, "But Mr. Han is a nice person! Jiang Cunzhong is also okay."
"The reason they treat you well is because you are doing things around His Highness." Helianyan patted her buttocks, "Remember, when you are around His Highness, don't form cliques with others!"
"Party?" Jiang He'er covered her hips and forgot to scold He Lianyan.
"What do you think?" He Lianyan said softly: "Why has His Highness neglected Cao Ying for so long? It's because he had such a clue. Now that Cao Ying has been taken to Chang'an by His Highness, Taoxian County seems to be calm, but people's hearts are good!
The most unpredictable."
…
"Jiang Cunzhong is domineering!"
Han Ji said to Liu Qing during the check-in period.
Liu Qing was silent.
…
Song Zhen went to find Luo Cai.
"Jiang Cunzhong and Han Ji had a quarrel," Song Zhen said.
Luo Cai was writing and said without looking up: "I have been in the official department for many years and I am used to seeing this."
"His Royal Highness's structure has become bigger, and his subordinates have more thoughts." Song Zhen sighed, "It used to be like a family, which was great!"
Luo Cai put down his brush, rubbed his neck with his backhand, and asked, "Have you ever seen a monarch and his ministers who are as close as a family?"
…
Yang Xuan returned home.
"I have met His Highness!"
Yang Xuan found that the servants were more respectful than before.
Entering the backyard, the maids were not only more respectful, but also looked at him with an unknown look in their eyes.
"Your Highness is just a piece of fat in their eyes now." Yi Niang quietly appeared beside Yang Xuan.
"I have suppressed this trend for a long time!"
Yang Xuan smiled bitterly, "For this reason, I left Cao Ying in the cold."
"Your Highness, the human heart is never satisfied." Yi Niang warned cryptically: "The minds of ministers and emperors are different."
"I know."
Yang Xuan smiled and said: "I'm not sad, don't worry."
Yi Niang nodded, "I will keep an eye on the backyard for Your Highness."
"Aye!"
Yang Laoer rushed over like a cannonball. Yang Xuan squatted down to catch it and hugged him up.
"Aye, they said there is better... better meat in the mountains." Yang Laoer began to like eating meat.
Yang Xuan grabbed his hand and stopped him from pulling his hair, "Let's go hunting in the mountains later."
"Where's Brother?" Yang Laoer's mind immediately turned to Ah Liang.
"Why are you looking for my brother?"
"Play!"
"Your brother wants to study."
"Then I also want to study."
"Sir, you will piss me off to death."
Yang Xuan flatly rejected Yang Laoer's request.
He carried his son into the room, where Zhou Ning was reading.
In early spring, the sun is not bright and the weather is still cold.
Zhou Ning holds the book in his left hand, rests his right elbow on the desk, rests his cheek on his hand, and concentrates on reading.
"Aniang!"
Yang Laoer came in and roared, "Brother, ignore me."
Zhou Ning sighed and put down the book, "Your brother wants to study."
"Don't read." Yang Laoer started to act rudely. Yang Xuan had a headache and turned away, leaving the conflict to his wife.
In the yard, Fugui was strolling lazily.
I don’t know since when, the swordsman likes to stay in the tree. According to Hua Hong, it regards the tree as its own home.
At first, people in the backyard were a little uncomfortable. They always felt uncomfortable being stared at by something, and this thing was a leopard!
It wasn't until one time that the swordsman angered Li Xuan and howled after being slapped, that everyone's mystery about leopards was broken.
Yang Xuan went into the study until the afternoon.
Yi Niang went to look for Zhou Ning, "Your Highness is probably a little depressed."
"What's the reason?" Zhou Ning asked.
Yi Niang said: "Now His Highness's situation has become bigger, and the thoughts of the ministers are also wild."
There are also such things within the Zhou family. Zhou Ning sighed and said, "I'll go take a look."
Zhou Ning arrived outside the study and saw that it was dark inside and no one lit a candle, so he became slightly angry and asked, "Why didn't you light a candle?"
The maid outside the door said: "Your Highness does not allow it."
Zhou Ning walked in and saw Li Xuanku sitting there with a fixed gaze.
"Zitai."
"Zitai?"
After several calls in a row, Li Xuan raised his head and said, "A Ning!"
Zhou Ning sat down and said, "When I was still in my parents' home, Aweng retired early. Aye was still young at that time, which caused undercurrents within the Zhou family.
Those uncles who used to be friendly have become extremely hypocritical. In the past, they and Aye could sit together and have fun, drink and have fun. But from the moment Aweng stepped down and Aye took charge of the Zhou family, everything changed.
.”
"I know."
"You'll get used to it gradually."
"good!"
Li Xuan held his wife's hand and said softly: "I come from the countryside of Yuanzhou. I have loved the warmth of home since I was a child."
"I know." Thinking of what happened to Li Xuan after he was ten years old, Zhou Ning held his hand and said, "I'm here! The children are too."
"At that time, I liked a harmonious and harmonious family, but it was a pity that I couldn't. Later, when I left Yuanzhou, I hoped that the people around me could be harmonious and harmonious, just like a family."
Li Xuan smiled and said: "Actually, after Cao Ying showed some signs, I knew that all this was just extravagant hope. After all, people's hearts are separated by a layer of belly."
"It's enough that they can obey your orders." Zhou Ning comforted.
If you were a member of another aristocratic family, you wouldn't be surprised by this kind of thing at all, but would take it for granted.
But Li Xuan has always been demanding on people's hearts, just as he always had hope for the Yang family who had fallen out with each other.
"I will recover soon." Li Xuan said.
"Um!"
"It's time to eat!" Wang Laoer's shout was still earth-shattering.
The corners of Li Xuan's mouth raised slightly, and Zhou Ning smiled, "The second brother is still eating at home."
But if one day Wang Lao Er is not at home to eat, the whole family will not be used to it.
A maid outside asked for instructions, "Madam, dinner is ready."
"Send it over." Zhou Ning prepared to accompany her man in the study.
The meal was delivered, along with a jug of wine.
Zhou Ning filled two wine glasses and raised his glasses...
"Aye!"
"Aye!"
The tense atmosphere between husband and wife was broken.
“It smells so good!”
Ah Liang saw the mutton chops when he came in, turned around and said, "Bring my food over quickly."
"And me!"
Yang Laoer has already sat down.
Li Xuan looked at his wife and children, and all the depression in his heart dissipated.
…
On the second day, Liu Qing met with Song Zhen and Luo Cai to discuss matters.
"His Highness calls himself the King of Qin, which is what he should do, but it is not appropriate to keep everything simple." Liu Qing expressed his thoughts.
"I think Your Highness should give up those random things." After Song Zhen witnessed the dispute between Han Ji and Jiang Cunzhong yesterday, he felt that it was time for Li Xuan to make a change.
"Yes." Luo Cai nodded in agreement.
Immediately, Liu Qing got on the paperwork.
"Your Highness, please call yourself alone."
"The ministers should be solemn."
"Don't laugh or make fun in front of His Highness."
Li Xuan looked at these items and suddenly thought of Liu Bang in another world.
He looked into space and nodded slightly.
Then, he waved his hands as if saying goodbye.
Food and grass are gathered, and the army is assembled.
The whole Tao County is hotly discussing the fact that Northern Xinjiang will go south to suppress the rebellion.
"The false emperor is incompetent, and in the end it is His Highness who has to go down and quell the rebellion."
Yue Er said with foam at the corner of his mouth, "That's a waste!"
"That's right, it's just a waste!"
Everyone laughed.
The ministers entered the Jiedu envoy's house.
In the lobby, Li Xuan sat high.
The ministers came in and saluted.
Very solemn.
Liu Qing looked at this scene and felt very comfortable and satisfied.
So good!
Luo Cai and Song Zhen also had smiles on their lips, very satisfied.
"Your Highness, eat jerky!"
Wang Laoer took out a piece of dried meat and walked up to it, and handed it to Li Xuan carelessly.
This bitch, I forgot to tell him... Liu Qing's eyes widened.
Where is the censor?
oh!
Not configured yet!
Here comes me!
Just as he was about to speak out, he saw Li Xuan take the dried meat and put it into his mouth to chew.
Liu Qing: "..."
Luo Cai: "..."
Song Zhen was furious, "Wang Laoer!"
Wang Laoer turned around and took out another piece of dried meat and handed it to Song Zhen, "My wife made this by herself. There aren't many left, so save some."
Song Zhen looked at him and was about to speak when he heard Li Xuan say from above: "It tastes good."
A general relaxed all over and said with a smile: "It's so cold today!"
Li Xuan said calmly: "Discuss the matter."
The general looked around awkwardly and quickly lowered his head.
"I just received the news that the rebels are marching down three states in a row, with overwhelming momentum. I wanted to let the soldiers rest for a while, but the situation waits for no one."
Li Xuan said: "I am going to raise my troops and go south. What do you think?"
This is the posture of an emperor.
Liu Qing left work and saluted. "Your Highness..."
"I'm going to raise my troops and go south. What do you think?"
Liu Qing saluted, "Your Highness, most of the food and grass have been allocated, and 40% of the injured soldiers have returned. I think it's time to send out troops."
"Song Gong." Li Xuan looked at Song Zhen.
This is the Ministry of War.
Song Zhen left the squad and said, "Your Highness, although the soldiers are still tired, they are inspired by the great cause. I believe that when the morale is as high as a rainbow, we can start the army."
"Luo Gong."
Luo Cai left the mission, "The civil and military forces in the north were all very excited when they heard that His Highness wanted to raise troops to go south to put down the rebellion."
"Nan He!"
Han Ji's eyes moved slightly.
Nan He left the mission, "All the officers and men in the army are willing to die for His Highness."
"Baodong."
Li Xuan's voice became louder and louder.
Bao Dong left the mission and said, "Your Highness, the people all say that Your Highness is righteous and the false emperor of Chang'an is just like a dog."
"The morale of the military and the morale of the people are greatly stabilized."
Li Xuan stood up and said, "That's it, raise the troops!"
The ministers saluted.
"Your Highness is wise!"
In the early spring of the 15th year of Daqian Dynasty, King Li Xuan of Qin raised troops in Taoxian County and went south to quell the rebellion.
