Chapter 662 Reunion
“Why is Wenxuan here?”
Li Yi just sighed when someone next to him asked.
“Oh, it turns out to be Yang Changshi.”
Li Yi turned around, took a look, and bowed quickly.
Yang Yi smiled and nodded slightly, looking in a good mood.
Xiang Lang originally served as the commander of the army, but now he took the initiative to resign. Therefore, Yang Yi, who followed the army, was promoted from joining the army to the commander of the army, and he took over Xiang Lang's position.
In the past few days, Yang Yi, who had never taken the initiative to get close to others, actually took the initiative to greet Li Yi, a newcomer, which surprised Li Yi.
“I was going to send some official documents to the Prime Minister. Unexpectedly, I met Chang Shi here.”
Li Yi knew that Yang Yi was not big-minded, and he had just entered the prime minister's house, so he didn't want to offend this person, so he replied respectfully.
"It seems to be a coincidence. The Prime Minister happened to have something to do with me. Let's go together."
Yang Yi was very satisfied with Li Yi's attitude.
Yang Yi is narrow-minded by nature, but also talented. Although the relationship with his colleagues has not reached a bad level, not many people are willing to get too close to him, let alone that he can invite underachievers like Li Yi to accompany him.
“How can you dare to go with the long history when you are a latecomer? The long history goes first, and the legacy follows behind.”
Li Yi said quickly.
Yang Yi nodded without being polite and walked ahead minding her own business.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he reached the door of the prime minister's meeting hall, Wei Yan, the former military advisor, happened to be walking towards him.
Yang Yi and Wei Yan looked at each other, neither of them looked down upon the other, and both snorted angrily.
Wei Yan subconsciously pressed his hand to his waist, making a gesture to draw the sword.
Yang Yi's expression changed and he took a step back. Then he realized that Wei Yan didn't have a sword at all.
Wei Yan saw Yang Yi's action, with a mocking look on his face, and walked directly into the meeting hall.
Yang Yi accidentally fell one step behind, which made his face suddenly become extremely gloomy. He looked at Wei Yan's back with malicious eyes.
Li Yi stood behind him with his eyes down, as if he didn't see anything.
As soon as Yang Yi followed suit and saw the ceremony, Li Yi took the official document and sent it to the prime minister's case.
"I have something to discuss with Yang Changshi and the former military advisor. Wenxuan, as you are a member of the army, you happen to be listening and gaining experience."
Zhuge Liang signaled to Li Yidao.
Li Yi knew that the Prime Minister was nurturing him, so he quickly responded, "We will obey the Prime Minister's wishes."
At this moment, he stood with his hands at the place closest to the door.
As a new member of the army who joined the Prime Minister's Office, Li Yi knew that he was not qualified to participate in various discussions of the Prime Minister's Office.
Now being able to listen to the Prime Minister's discussions with others will be of great help to his future growth.
He just didn't expect the prime minister to see Wei Yan and Yang Yi looking at each other angrily, but he sighed first and said, "Xi Yide wanted to flog Cao Bao and lost Xuzhou, Yun Changyan killed Mi Fang and died in Jingzhou, every time the late emperor thought about this , I sighed three times without sighing."
"Jin Wen is brave and strategic, and his majesty is good at planning. I can't abandon it, and I always hate it. Why can't you release your personal grudges to repay the country and achieve a great cause together? It's like water and fire?"
When Wei Yanyang Yi heard this, he saw the unhappy expression on the face of the prime minister sitting above him. He had no choice but to restrain his emotions, but no one was willing to ask for peace.
Zhuge Liang also knew that the two had long-standing grievances, which he could not resolve with just a few words, so he had to discuss matters first.
“In the past, Emperor Gaozu was the king of Han. He attacked Guanzhong from Hanzhong, conquered the Three Kingdoms, and conquered the country in four years. From this point of view, Hanzhong was actually the place where the great Han Dynasty flourished.”
"Now that the Northern Expedition has been victorious, we are on the right side of Longxi, overlooking Guanzhong, and taking Hanzhong as the front line. The emperor longs for the heroes of our ancestors, and wants to boost the morale of the soldiers in the Northern Expedition, so he sends Guang Luxun to Hanzhong to celebrate the festival and set up an altar to worship heaven and earth. "
“Weigong, you still need to worry more about this matter.”
Yang Yi quickly agreed, and then gave Wei Yan a covert provocative look.
“Speaking of the Northern Expedition, although Cao Cao’s thieves were lucky enough to be defeated this time and regained Longyou, Cao’s thieves now have tens of thousands of troops in Guanzhong and are ready to cross Longshan from the west and march south to Hanzhong at any time.”
"In addition, Liangzhou in the west is also stubborn and refuses to surrender, constantly threatening Longyou. Therefore, not only should we not take it lightly at this time, but we must strengthen our defenses. Chang Wen, you have ruled Hanzhong for a long time and are familiar with all the dangerous passes in Hanzhong."
"I want to build more new city passes in Hanzhong to prevent Cao Cao's thieves from marching into Hanzhong from Guanzhong. You will need to worry more about this matter then."
Upon hearing this, Wei Yan looked at Yang Yi with a sneer while agreeing.
After talking about these two things, the only thing left is some personnel changes.
For example, Du Zhen and Liu Shen moved from Yizhou Biejia to serve in the Longyou Dudu Mansion.
Li Yi has naturally heard of these two people.
After all, in the battle at the street pavilion, the one who took the first place was his brother, and the second one was Liu Yin, who insisted on guarding the street pavilion and refused to surrender.
Liu Yin, on the other hand, was recommended by his brother and was able to serve in the army.
Obviously, the aristocratic families in central Shu who supported the Northern Expedition finally began to reap rewards. A considerable number of vacancies in Longyou were filled by people from central Shu.
After the discussion was completed, Zhuge Liang deliberately left Li Yi behind.
“Yesterday, I sent Li Zhongduhu’s memorial from Jincheng.”
Zhuge Liang looked a little tired. The victory of the Northern Expedition did not allow him to get a better rest.
On the contrary, because after the war, he had to personally review all the rewards, merits and punishments to avoid unfair rewards and punishments.
In the past, any punishment of more than twenty rods had to be witnessed by the prime minister, but now a reward of more than five mins has been added, so Zhuge Liang has been even busier than before in the past two months.
The soldiers were all happy and felt that the court's rewards and punishments were fair. However, the prime minister was tired day and night and was even thinner than before the Northern Expedition.
Zhuge Liang picked up an official document and handed it to Li Yi, "Please take a look."
Li Yi quickly stepped forward to take it, opened it and looked at it carefully.
"how?"
After Li Yi read it, Zhuge Liang asked.
Li Yi said hesitantly, "I don't dare to comment on the matter of Li Zhongdu's protection."
“I show it to you just so you can tell.”
Li Yi organized his words and then said, "Prime Minister, Li Zhongduhu seems to be a little indifferent between public and private affairs..."
Zhuge Liang sneered when he heard Li Yi's words.
He stood up and walked back and forth, his face a little ugly, "Not only does he not distinguish between public and private affairs, he simply uses public utensils for personal use!"
"Is this Jiangzhou the Han Dynasty's Jiangzhou, or is it Li Yan's Jiangzhou? Huh? He was transferred back to Jincheng Department to work in the Prime Minister's Office, but he actually had to let Li Fengdian handle matters in Jiangzhou before he was willing to return to Jincheng?"
"Knowing that the imperial court appointed Xiang Chong as the governor of Jiangzhou, he acted like this. Where did he put the imperial court's appointment? Doesn't he put himself above the imperial court?"
Zhuge Liang became angrier and louder as he spoke.
Before the Northern Expedition, he agreed to Li Yan and asked him to take charge of all affairs in the Prime Minister's Mansion. Only then did he persuade him to return to Jiangzhou to prepare for the Northern Expedition.
But I didn’t expect that when he was later asked to lead the army to Hanzhong for support, he actually made excuses not to come.
While he was leading the army to confront Cao Cao's thieves at Longyou, he suddenly said that he would lead the army northward, which frightened the emperor and the princes in the court who stayed in Jincheng into panic.
Now, in accordance with his wishes before the Northern Expedition, he allowed him to return to the Prime Minister's Office in Jincheng Department, but he also made other conditions.
Not only did it make things difficult for the court, but it also openly regarded Jiangzhou as its own territory.
Thinking again of Li Yan's previous actions, the anger in the heart of the Han Prime Minister could not be suppressed at all.
Li Hui, as the Commander-in-Chief of Nijiang, was behind Li Yan, the Commander-in-Chief of Jiangzhou.
Even if Li Hui didn't say anything, Li Yi could naturally guess the subtle relationship between the governor of Jiangzhou and the governor of Jiangzhou.
It was just this kind of thing, it was related to the dispute between two auxiliary ministers of the Han Dynasty. Li Yi knew that he was not qualified to participate, so he lowered his eyes and said nothing.
The prime minister must have had other orders for him to stay behind.
As expected, after the prime minister finished venting these words, he softened his tone and said, "Wenxuan, write a letter to Feng Mingwen in Longyou and ask him to write a letter to Li Feng."
Li Yi raised his head in surprise. He thought the prime minister was reminding him through himself, but he didn't expect that he was sending a letter to his brother.
Looking at Li Yi's confused look, Zhuge Liang didn't explain too much, "Just tell him about this and he will know what to do. At any rate, Li Feng also called him brother back then."
Li Yi then remembered that when his brother was imprisoned, it was Li Feng who went to Fengzhuang to deliver news.
Speaking of it this way, Li Feng does have a friendship with his brother.
He nodded at that moment and said, "I know, I will write a letter to my brother as soon as I get down."
When Li Yi came out, he felt a mixture of joy and sorrow.
The Prime Minister and the Central Protector were the auxiliary ministers appointed by the late emperor himself, and they are also the two top ministers of the Han Dynasty today.
The fact that my brother can participate in this is enough to show the importance of his status, or the importance that the Prime Minister attaches to his brother.
But this kind of fight is indistinguishable from the dangers on the battlefield. If you are not careful, you may be in danger.
With this in mind, Li Yi wrote down everything he knew and thought in the letter, and at the end he reminded Feng Yong to be careful.
Finally, someone called the steward of Dongfeng Express and told him to hand the letter to Feng Yong himself.
Feng Yong naturally had no idea that the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty planned to drag him into this political struggle.
At this time, although he was not as good as the captain who protected Qiang when the Han Dynasty was strong, he was able to command tens of thousands of horses to patrol the obstacles with great force, in order to strengthen the power of the Han Dynasty and attack the unconquered countries.
Dan led two thousand Han troops in the center, five or six thousand Hu cavalry as wings, hounds, eagle claws, Longyou Qiang Hu, hoping that they would all be invincible, and either surrender or surrender, which was quite impressive.
At least everyone in Longyou, regardless of Han people or Qiang Hu, can hear the name of the Han captain who protects the Qiang.
Feng Yong led the army from the foot of the mountain to the west of Longyou and then turned westward, returning to Pingxiang.
Just when the majestic Colonel Feng saw clearly the people coming out of Pingxiang City to greet him, he let out an "ouch", rolled down his horse and ran over.
“Alang!”
After becoming a woman, the peerless Guan Ji became even more noble and graceful, so that those Qiang and Hu men only dared to look at her from a distance and did not dare to look at her directly.
“Brother.”
Zhang Xingyi, whose phoenix eyes are half-curved with amber inside, is smiling sweetly, like a spring breeze blowing away the cold weather that has just turned cold.
"Lord."
The pretty Amei stood behind Guan Ji with eyes full of eyes, her eyes and face full of expressions of longing for her.
“Junhou.”
Li Mu turned his eyes to the water, his cheeks were filled with fresh lili, his waist was slightly bent, and he bowed Yingying to Feng Yong.
“Okay, okay!”
Feng Tudi's eyes shone and he opened his arms.
The smile on Guan Ji's face faded slightly, and then her eyes condensed. Feng Yongdeng woke up immediately. He retracted his arm and coughed dryly, "Are you all here?"
This person has a problem, that is, he can't keep his mouth shut when he is happy.
He looked behind several people again and asked, "Hey, why is there one missing?"
“Who? Who else?”
Zhang Xingyi reacted the fastest. As soon as he heard this, his heart tightened inexplicably, and he asked questions in succession.
"Hua... uh," Feng Tubou said as he spoke. He caught a glimpse of Guan Ji's eyebrows slightly raised, and quickly bit her tongue. "Wow, didn't you tell me to ask Wei Rong to come with you? Why don't you see me? he?"
It's not that he had any thoughts about flower garlands, he just thought it was a bit strange that the extremely persistent Nanzhong girl didn't come with his mother-in-law.
Perhaps she finally gave up?
Guan Ji's eyebrows softened again and she said warmly, "Follow me. At this time, he should be leading people to arrange things in Pingxiang. He is too busy to get away. Does Alang have something to see him at this time?"
"It's okay, it's okay. If he's busy, let him be busy first."
Feng Yong quickly waved his hand and looked around. The four women complemented each other. Their auras were so strong that even Bu Bu could only stay away from them. It seemed that Wei Rong had a good eye.
"Alang has worked **** the battle. Hot water and meals have been prepared in the city. Why don't you go back to the city and rest first?"
As the principal wife, Guan Ji looks very virtuous at this time.
“Okay, let’s go back to the city first.”
Feng Yong nodded repeatedly, transformed from a Qiang-protecting captain into a family-protecting man, and simply left the soldiers alone.
"What are you doing?"
Zhang Ni saw Liu Hun stupidly trying to follow him, so he quickly grabbed him.
“A certain person is engaged in protecting the Qiang outside, but inside he is a follower of Marquis Feng, so he always protects Marquis Feng.”
Liu Hun answered honestly.
"Ha!" Zhang Yi chuckled, "Where the king and his wife are, do they still need your protection? Don't be lazy, hurry up and follow me to arrange military matters before we get down to business."
Liu Hun was pulled away by Zhang Yi for some unknown reasons. He looked back at the backs of Feng Yong and others, and said unconvincingly, "What does Chang Shi mean by this? It's because there are several ladies here, so we need more People are protected.”
Zhang Ni pulled Liu Hun to a corner. Seeing that there was no one around, he said impatiently, "Don't be nagging. My wife's martial arts skills are better than yours. Do you need to protect her?"
While in Yuexun, Madam personally led people to sweep away the small tribes near Qiongdu. Even the initial city layout of Qiongdu was decided by Madam herself.
If he hadn't been born as a girl, wouldn't the big man have another tiger general?
Otherwise, how can I go to Yuexi as a postal supervisor and come to Longyou as a Qiang protector?
After listening to Zhang Ni's explanation, Liu Hun asked in disbelief, "That person who never came to take office turns out to be... just..."
Zhang Yi knew that Liu Hun regarded himself as a follower of the king, and he would know this sooner or later. He thought that he had to explain it clearly to him now, so as not to make him do anything embarrassing later.
He nodded immediately, "Although Madam is a woman, her military skills and martial arts are both top-notch. She was known as the Tiger Girl back then, and even Sun Quan's son didn't look down on her."
Liu Hun saw that Zhang Ni's expression didn't look fake, so he murmured, "I asked why Mrs. Zhang can't become the royal wife. It turns out that there is a tiger girl in the prince's family..."
He was originally recommended by Zhang Xingyi, and that's why he is here today, so he naturally turned to Zhang Xingyi.
Unexpectedly, when Zhang Yi heard this, his face turned pale and she covered his mouth, "You idiot! If you don't know how to speak, don't speak! Do you want to kill someone?"
As a close confidant of Feng Junhou, who doesn’t know about the affairs of Guan and Zhang’s two daughters?
But who dares to gossip?
One is capable of beating them in martial arts, and the other is the queen's biological sister. Which one can they mess with?
Liu Hun is a young man who is desperate on the battlefield and can be regarded as a fierce general. Zhang Yi also likes him very much.
But on weekdays, just seeing that he would rather be a follower of the king than seek refuge with the Zhang family, you can tell that he is a stubborn guy.
Thinking of this, Zhang Ni thought to himself that I have to watch him carefully these days, otherwise he might say something he shouldn't say in front of his wife, which would make life difficult for everyone.
After all...Feng Hou is afraid of his wife, ah, no, it should be said that the monarch dotes on his wife.
