Wei Fufeng tasted a sip of tea and said, "Where is Dong Chang, please ask my grandfather to lobby someone."

"How do you say it?" asked grandfather.

"Saying that the court did something wrong, neglecting loyal ministers, bullying good and fearing evil, Li Maozhen was able to be named King Qi, and Dong Chang was also qualified to be named King, expressing his willingness to make good things, which made Dong Chang less worried." Wei Fufeng said.

Grandfather nodded and thought for a while and said, "This matter made your eighth uncle go there. Your eighth uncle is good at diplomacy. He made great contributions to the Dongchuan Army."

Wei Fufeng nodded with approval, suddenly remembered someone and asked, "Grandfather, my grandson has heard that Uncle Twelve is in Chang'an, but I don't know what he is capable of?"

The grandfather said calmly: "I thought you knew about your twelfth uncle. It is inappropriate for me to use my adopted son now."

Wei Fufeng suddenly realized that he really didn't know that Uncle Twelve was adopted by someone else. In the past, he just heard that he was working in Chang'an.

Generally, there are two situations for adopted sons. One is that the nephew becomes an orphan, and the uncle adopts the sons, such as Wang Ke.

Second, if you don’t have a son to inherit the incense, you have to adopt one of your sons among the same clan. The adoptive son who inherits the incense is the most taboo to get entangled with your biological father.

Wei Fufeng said, "My grandson passed by Chang'an and asked someone to greet Master Bo Zu with gifts. He could not shock the emperor's difficulties, and he also persuaded Master Bo Zu to resign."

After hearing this, my grandfather looked depressed and said, "It's useless to advise you. Your uncle insists on repaying you with kindness. He is not wrong, nor is we wrong. The consequences can only be left to fate in the future."

Wei Fufeng nodded, and his grandfather said again: "When you say this, I remember something. Wang Xingyu, the governor of Bining, asked the court for the position of Shangshu. The court refused to agree and sent him the title of Shangfa."

"When Wang Xingyu asked for the appointment of the Shangshu Ling, he humiliated himself. The Shangshu Ling was appointed by Emperor Taizong of Tang, Li Shimin, and no one dared to take office. Wang Xingyu's move was purely imitating Li Maozhen, pointing at the emperor's nose to be his ancestor." Wei Fufeng said with a funny look.

What did Wang Xingyu want to do for that empty position? He is not as good as his Longyou Jiedushi.

"The problem is that your uncle rejected it. Your uncle's words, Emperor Taizong once served as the Minister of State. After that, no one of his ministers was granted the title of Guo Ziyi's great contribution to suppressing the rebellion and the rebellion was unwilling to accept it, let alone Wang Xingyu." said his grandfather.

Wei Fufeng frowned. This was a naked offense to Wang Xingyu, the governor of Bining.

My grandfather said again: "Wang Xingyu is a bandit, and I am worried that he will use this as an excuse to attack Shuofang."

Wei Fufeng said: "Without the Fengxiang Army's joint troops, Wang Xingyu would inevitably have worries. His grandson was worried that Wang Xingyu would send troops to Chang'an and take revenge on his uncle."

"No, Wang Xingyu is not that stupid to attack Chang'an for a virtual official." Grandfather disagreed and thought that Wang Xingyu would not mobilize many troops.

Wei Fufeng didn't say anything, because he couldn't protect Wei Zhaodu. The place in Chang'an was special and he could not enter Chang'an without the emperor's imperial edict.

I am afraid that his Fufeng Army will enter Chang'an, and the Fengxiang Army and the Bining Army will go to Chang'an with great momentum to "protect the king and serve the king".

The most important thing is that in order to avoid suspicion, Bethzu Wei Zhaodu would not accept Wei Fufeng's troops to protect him, and even a hundred guards would not want.

In fact, one hundred guards may also become an excuse for the Bining army to advance to Chang'an.

Next, the grandparents and grandchildren communicated with their internal affairs. This statement was longer than before, until after noon, when Wei Fufeng said goodbye.

Unexpectedly, my grandfather said again: "Fufeng, maybe you will have another uncle in the future."

Wei Fufeng was stunned, then raised his polite smile and said, "Congratulations to grandfather."

Grandfather smiled and nodded, waved his hand and said, "Go."

Wei Fufeng left Xiyuan, perhaps because of his grandfather's old age, was quite restless and missed his lovers more and more, but he was not easy to ask his grandfather.

When asked about my grandfather, I would definitely refuse. It was very simple. Of course, my grandfather was unwilling to admit to spying on Wei Fufeng's family affairs.

Back at the back house of the county government office, Chunhong and two ma slaves served Wei Fufeng and took off their coats.

Wei Fufeng reached out and hugged her gently, listening to the abdomen of the two Manus, and the two Manus looked beautiful, radiating a happy smile.

Unexpectedly, Wei Fufeng was intrigued and caressed the two beautiful women, the gentle joy of fish and water.

Finally, it was Chunhong, who endured the wildness of the storm, allowing Wei Fufeng to have a good time.

The next day, Wei Fufeng set out for Jiangling Prefecture. He was unable to go back directly to Yuzhou in southern Sichuan. He needed to inspect the military and political affairs and people's livelihood in Jiangling Prefecture and strengthen the belonging of the military and civilians.

You are not close to the people, and the people's concerns do not care about themselves. The changes in the king's flag on the city wall are irrelevant.

Be close to the people, and the people are excited to see big people, and they will support them when they are excited.

During the reign of Jiangling Prefecture, Chengxian often went deep into the people to encourage farming, asking about his sufferings and comforting people's hearts.

Han Jian of the Tongguan Army also did the same, so the two people's territory could be quickly reigned. People at that time praised the South to become North Korea as the wise governor.

......

Just when Wei Fufeng arrived in Jinzhou, Li Keyong, who was on the expedition, also received two documents handed over by Mrs. Liu.

One is written by Li Yuzhu, and the other is the situation of Shuofang discovered by the scout.

Li Yuzhu's narration of Xia Sui's situation, as well as Wei Fufeng's words and compromise methods.

Wei Fufeng wanted to be the king, and said that Li Keyong was not far from being the king, so he told everything in detail.

The scout's report is much more valuable than Li Yuzhu's advice.

Li Keyong frowned after seeing it. Wei Fufeng's ability surprised him. Not only did he harvest Liangzhou, but he did not miss the agriculture of the two states.

The total combat force reached 60,000, including nearly 3,000 cavalry, and the cavalry that had aroused Li Keyong's alertness.

Three thousand cavalrymen are enough to give Shuofang the strength to fight in agile movements.

Li Keyong felt the potential for Shuofang to lose control, but he should not turn against him and seize Shuofang at the moment.

First, the Hedong Army suffered not much loss in Shuofang and made huge profits. If the promise is destroyed, the consequences will cause uneasiness among the Hedong Army soldiers.

The Hedong Army relied on military achievements to maintain people's rule. With great achievements, it could become a governor or even a governor of the territory.

Li Keyong's rule is actually similar to the lord system of the human race, but it also has a centralized system, which is a combination of the two.

For example, Li Keyong will consign military forces from various places and then distribute them to territory or spoils based on the credit.

The Hedong Army attacked Shuofang, and Li Keyong promised to give Wei Fufeng the rule after the war. The Hedong Army that participated in the war also gained huge benefits, and it can be said that the cooperation is pleasant.

If Li Ke turned against the enemy and overthrow the Shuofang, it would trigger a crisis of rule and cause distrust of his subordinates. He must have reason to be famous for his master, but it is impossible for him to be famous for his master.

Li Keyong's regret was mainly due to the variables in Liangzhou, which meant that Shuofang had the ability to get rid of the vassal Hedong Army.

The place in Liangzhou has been a military treasure since ancient times, and is better than Lingzhou in military terms.

After Li Keyong thought about it, he could only let Shuofang go for the time being. If Wei Fufeng had no shortage of offerings, he could alleviate the financial affairs of Hedong, and he would have no choice.

It is not reasonable to use the excuse to draw the military strength of Shuofang. Shuofang's military strength needs to resist the Tubo, Bining and Fengxiang troops.

In addition, Li Keyong could not enter Shuofang again. He now needed to deal with Zhu Wen, the Xuanwu Army, and rescue the forces of the Tianping Army.

In contrast, Shuofang's out of control was only a future disaster of scabies.

......

Li Keyong was occasionally worried about Shuofang's loss of control, but Han Jian of the Tongguan army was shocked by the destruction of the Jingnan army.

Han Jian has been eyeing Jinzhou territory and has been watching Shangzhou Wuguan several times, but he has given up because he is not sure of a quick battle.

A few months ago, I heard that Wei Fufeng went to Hedong to propose marriage in the north, which caused Han Jian's uneasiness. Then I heard that the Hedong Army entered the capture of Shuofang, and then the Jingnan Army was destroyed by the Sichuan Army.

These information made Han Jian very worried. On Wei Fufeng's way back, he could send troops to rob and kill, but he did not dare.

Once Wei Fufeng escaped, Han Jian had to withstand the north-south attacks from the Southern Sichuan Army and the Hedong Army.

Han Jian was greatly disappointed. Now his territory has become a sandwich, and it is impossible to make progress to Jinzhou, but the suggestion of a subordinate adviser made his eyes turn to Chang'an.

He took over the emperor and collected tributes from all directions.

Han Jian wrote a letter to the emperor at the advice of the adviser.

He heard that Chang'an's public security was chaotic, people's hearts were turbulent, and people's hearts were also shocked and doubtful. He asked the court to stabilize the people's hearts and crack down on illegal people.

Han Jian requested to serve as Jingzhao Yin and send a thousand troops to be responsible for the public security of Chang'an City, and asked the court not to let down his loyalty.

After receiving the letter, the court asked Han Jian to serve as Jingzhao Yin.

The court was also helpless. He was bullied by Li Maozhen and had no power to fight back. The public security in Chang'an City was also in chaos.

At this time, the imperial court needed foreign aid to strengthen its power, but it was also afraid that the soldiers of the vassal states would enter Chang'an.

In contrast, Han Jian has always respected the court, and has constant tribute and taxes. He does not interfere in court affairs. He is not from aristocratic families, and the power of the vassal states is not as good as that of the Fengxiang Army.

The emperor should not refuse Han Jian’s request, so as to avoid the entire capital of the capital being hostile.

After Han Jian was appointed, he immediately used a thousand elite subordinates to enter Chang'an City, becoming the government office in charge of security and actively cracking down on illegal people, making the security situation in Chang'an City a brand new look.

Han Jian's concurrent role as Jingzhao Yin was just the first step to wielding the emperor and entered the imperial official system first.

Because Jingzhao Yin was also a court official, he won other official positions step by step.

For example, the same as the Minister of the Central Secretariat, he obtained the qualification of prime minister and then controlled the court.

Han Jian was blocked from the development path of the southeast and north, and had to stare at the Chang'an court in the west, trying to control the court's righteousness and accept tributes sent by all parties to strengthen the power.

Han Jian had to expand his army and strengthen his military equipment to protect himself, but the production of the territory was limited and he could not afford to support too much military power.

......

Wei Fufeng arrived at Jiangling Prefecture City, where Jiangling Prefecture City had two chief officials, one was Li Ji, the governor of Jingzhou, and the other was the governor of Jiangling Prefecture.

The Jiangling Prefecture Prefecture was vacant, and Li Ji was in charge of it.

The Gangling Prefecture was once served by Cheng Xian. This official position is similar to that of Jingzhao Prefecture. It is responsible for the public security of Jiangling Prefecture and also in charge of business and people's livelihood. That is, the affairs in the city are under the Gangling Prefecture.

The governor of Jingzhou is in charge of local military, government and people's livelihood outside the city, and is the immediate superior of the county magistrates.

My grandfather said that Wei Fufeng was appointed as the official position of Jiangling Prefecture, but in fact he was named, so Wei Fufeng would not have time to manage Jiangling Prefecture City.
