After waiting for a while, the front yard officials never said that Jiang Wan was back, and it was almost dark.

When Jiang Wan first became an official, she was an ordinary subordinate of General Zuo’s Mansion. When Lei Yuan led his clan to Jingzhou, he was appointed as the county magistrate of Lexiang and was Lei Yuan’s main assistant in government affairs. Lei Yuan sent elderly or injured soldiers to serve as a member of the society, and the strategy of using the Tian army as a local backbone was to improve it in Jiang Wan’s hands and gradually become widely used.

Later, Jiang Wan served as the head of the township, Yidao Order. When Xuande Gong proclaimed king, he was transferred to the central government as the Secretary of the Shangshu. Later, he became the Secretary of the Shangshu. However, he was drunk while serving as the Minister of the Shangshu, which led to the furious emperor. Zhuge Liang pleaded for Jiang Wan, calling Jiang Wan a weapon of the country, so he was only dismissed from office.

Fortunately, Jiang Wan changed his mistakes from then on, and after a few years he became the chief minister of the Prime Minister's Office, and took office as the general of the Fu Army last year.

Both he and Fei Yi made great contributions in the process of suppressing the rebellion. Therefore, although their official positions were not very high, they were popular political stars in the court, and the emperor often had affairs consultation.

The emperor is a slow man, he asks questions leisurely and thinks about things slowly; Jiang Wan and the prime minister are both patient and willing to analyze and explain in detail. Therefore, it is common to delay some time in the palace.

Zhuge Qiao and Deng Fan continued to chat, but Zhuge Zhan couldn't wait and ran over twice and asked, "Brother, can we go and smash the ice?"

Seeing the child interesting, Deng Fan simply said to Zhuge Qiao: "BoSong, you and I don't have to be here, sit here wither. Go together and smash the ice!"

Zhuge Qiao laughed loudly, asked Zhuge Zhan to thank Deng Fan, and then came out with the child's hand. As soon as he stepped out of the room, servants came over and added a thick robe to Zhuge Zhan.

There was a pond in Zhuge Qiao's courtyard, and there were swings, wooden horses and other children's toys in the corner. It seemed that Zhuge Zhan often came. The group stood by the pond, Deng Fan made fun of it, picked up a wooden hammer from his servant, squatted on the edge of the pond covered with white sand, and hit the ice surface hard. After knocking for a few times, the sound of water was rustling, the ice surface shattered, revealing a hole.

"Thank you, General Deng!" Zhuge Zhan gave a ritual in his first ceremony, then waved his small net bag in his hand and looked into the hole. While exploring, he whispered: "Liaoyu Come on! Come on!"

At this time, Zhuge Qiao was worried. He grabbed the child's vest's clothes tightly, followed him step by step, and said repeatedly: "Be careful! Be careful under your feet!"

Deng Fan squatted aside with a smile, and saw that the two of them had a deep brotherhood, and gradually felt a little emotional in their expression.

Zhuge Qiao was unwilling to neglect Deng Fan, laughed twice, and explained: "My father is an old man who has a young son over 40 years old, and I am a much older brother... I can't help but love Azhan at home."

After a while, Deng Fan said, "Bo, Bosong, come. If you have something, you might as well tell you in advance."

"What's the matter?"

Zhuge Qiao saw Deng Fan solemnly and did not dare to neglect him. He entrusted his younger brother to the servant, turned around and came up from the slope at the edge of the pond: "Sir, please speak."

Deng Fan led Zhuge Qiao to a little farther away and sat down in a corridor: "This time I am here, and I am here in Chang'an. Among the people who are accompanying me, Sun Quan sent me to meet the envoy."

Zhuge Qiao was surprised: "Sun Quan's messenger?"

Several years ago, Sun Quan seized Liaodong, and then used Liaodong as the foundation to expand to Goguli, Fuyu, Sanhan and other places. Earlier, there was a proposal in the dynasty that Sun Quan occupied the Han Dynasty's Liaodong and Lelang counties, and accepted the remnants of Cao Wei who fled when the imperial court recaptured Youzhou. It seemed that he had a bad intention and should send envoys to question and prepare for the conquest. Because the Han Dynasty was revived soon after, and internal affairs were complicated, this proposal was put on hold.

A few years later, General Lei Yuan, the Cavalry, inspected the borders of various places and was fully responsible for the offensive and defense preparations of border counties. When he was in Youzhou, he ordered the generals to take the initiative to attack the Xianbei several times. With his rapid actions, the Han army successively captured tens of thousands of Xianbei people, 100,000 war horses, and countless cattle and sheep, causing the once powerful Xianbei species to fall and scatter and attack each other.

The Sun regime in Liaodong was originally helping each other with the Xianbei. At this time, he did not dare to be Lei Yuan's tiger power. He voluntarily withdrew from most of Changli County and set the border east of Yiwulu Mountain. Considering the complex relationship between Sun and Liu, Lei Yuan was not very good at himself.

In the following two years, the court was busy cleaning up the hearts of the people in Hebei, Central Plains and other places, and had no time to worry about this border regime. Few people even mentioned it in the court.

But I never thought that the Han Dynasty did not take care of the Sun regime, but the Sun family took the initiative to send someone?

They came with Deng Fantong, the capable subordinate of the General of the Cavalry, and obviously had communicated with Lei Yuan and would report important information to the court. Perhaps Sun Quan was determined to surrender? That would be a great thing! In that case, uncle Zhuge Jin and others would become ministers of the Han Dynasty again, and the family would have the possibility of reunion!

Zhuge Qiao thought of this and asked again: "But I don't know who the messenger is?"

"The chief envoy is Sun, Sun Shao. There are two deputy envoys, one is the great chief Murong Muyan of the Xianbei in western Liaoning; the other is Bosong your brother, Zhuge Ke."

Zhuge Qiao suddenly stood up with a happy face: "My brother is here in Chang'an?"

"yes."

At this time, Zhuge Zhan by the pond had caught a small fish and smiled. Zhuge Qiao turned his head to look at his younger brother. In a trance, he thought that when he was Azhan's age, his brother was also in charge of him, and he changed his tricks to make his younger brother happy every day.

In a blink of an eye, more than 20 years have passed. I left Jiangdong's home and my brother, and it has been more than ten years. Although I had contacted each other with letters many times during this period, I had not met for more than ten years! Zhuge Qiao couldn't help but raise his hands and rub his face.

Turning back, he smiled and saluted respectfully to Deng Fan: "Shize, thank you."

"I dare not take it." Deng Fan took a step back a little, and then said, "Bosong, the envoy of Sun's family has indeed important matters. Before everything is settled, it is not convenient to have private contact with the ministers in Chang'an."

"I understand, I understand." Zhuge Qiao nodded repeatedly.

After a while, he couldn't help asking again: "Where are the messengers?"

"It should have been placed under the Honglu Temple and under the museum, but there was no conclusion in the court whether Sun was a vassal, a prince or a guest. The court had never been determined. The group of people placed on the Honglu Temple and placed on the Honglu Temple, which may cause trouble. So I placed them all in the military camps north of Changle Palace and the north. There were also special posts there, which would be well received."

Zhuge Qiao himself was an imperial guard officer and was very familiar with Chang'an City. He immediately knew which post station Deng Fan was talking about. He continued to nod and couldn't help laughing.

Just as I was about to say something, an official from outside the Yuedong Gate hurriedly reported: "Changshi Jiang has returned from the palace."

Deng Fan said goodbye to Zhuge Qiao.

Zhuge Qiao knew that Deng Fan was busy with official duties and did not try to keep him. He just took Deng Fan's arm and led him to take a shortcut to bypass the Zhucao's official house. He sent him to the office of the chief secretary on the side of the main hall, and then the two broke up.

When he returned to his own courtyard, Zhuge Zhan stood by the pond, pouting, a little unhappy.

Zhuge Qiao walked a few steps, squatted beside Zhuge Zhan, and asked kindly: "Why are you not happy with Azhan?"

"Just just now, I caught a very beautiful little fish and wanted to show it to my brother, but you walked away. I can't be happy without my brother's company." Zhuge Zhan said seriously.

Zhuge Qiao's eyes were a little wet. He sniffed hard and said with a smile: "I'm here, why did you walk away? Where is the fish Azhan caught? Let me see and be happy!"

"Brother clearly walked away, and you are unhappy!" Zhuge Zhan walked to Zhuge Qiao and said with a look on his face: "That General Deng is a bad guy, right? You cried when he was talking just now! You are still crying!"

Zhuge Qiao hugged Zhuge Zhan, his voice trembling: "Azhan, I'm not unhappy. My brother is here in Chang'an, I'm very happy, so that's why."

Zhuge Zhan wiped the corners of his brother's eyes with his sleeve: "Then, can my brother's brother play with me?"

"Of course. My brother is amazing. He can make a lot of fresh things. You will know when you see them." Zhuge Qiao touched A Zhan's forehead with his nose and hugged A Zhan higher.

At this moment, he suddenly saw a fire in the northeast of the Prime Minister's Mansion suddenly appearing in the dark sky at dusk.

Zhuge Qiao frowned and called a entourage: "Go and see where the fire broke out and what happened!"

The entourage ran out immediately.

When using fire candles in cold weather, it is easy to cause fires without supervision. It has been two or three times this year. The Sixteenth Tue Pavilion in Chang'an City is equipped with personnel responsible for extinguishing fires, as well as water tanks, sand, etc. The imperial guards of various departments also have the responsibility to participate in extinguishing fires. Therefore, as long as the handling is handled quickly enough, it will not lead to a major disaster.

But Zhuge Qiao waited for a while, but saw the flames becoming stronger and stronger, and thick black smoke rising like a ferocious beast. Zhuge Qiao stared at the direction of the fire and suddenly felt a strong nervousness. He seemed to have thought of something, but had no clue.

He asked the servants to take Zhuge Zhan back to the house, and asked the servants at home to prepare to put out the fire, and then pulled their feet out.

After walking a few steps, I ran into the entourage I had sent out.

"Master, Master!" The entourage ran back wildly and panted in a panting: "I heard that it was the north of Changle Palace, and the post station in the military camp suddenly caught fire! The fire was extremely strong and spread very quickly!"

To the north of Changle Palace, the post station in the military camp!
