Although today's reception banquet was organized for Xia Xun and Zheng He, no one dared to drink too much, because the reading of the edict and other related matters would be tomorrow, and tomorrow would be the highlight. If Yang Guogong and Zheng Eunuch were drunk today,
If you get drunk, won't you miss tomorrow's important event?
Therefore, we drank the Jie Feng wine quite easily and dealt with all the congratulatory guests. The banquet broke up after more than an hour. Everyone left one after another. Xia Xun accompanied Zheng He to the back house.
The stewards, servants, and maids of the inner house were already waiting there, and they all stepped forward to greet him. A pair of bright eyes in the crowd fell on Xia Xun. When Xia Xun opened his eyes, the man had already lowered his head. This person was "
"Xiao Ying", Xia Xun looked at her with a somewhat complicated look in his eyes. Of course, this complicated emotion only appeared for a moment and was perfectly hidden by him.
He already knew that the sobering soup was poisonous. From this, he had guessed that this Sakura must be from the Tatar side. What he hadn't figured out yet was that this Sakura was trying to assassinate him and was from a certain tribe.
She was a Tatar ruler for her own personal vendetta. In order to conceal her identity, she actually used more than a hundred tribesmen. So besides assassinating herself, did she have any other plans? Apart from her and her tribesmen,
Are there any more saboteurs targeting Liaodong?
Zheng He glanced around and first saw Sanapova and Zilata. These two girls were blond and blue-eyed. They were already outstanding in appearance, not to mention extremely tall. Standing in the crowd, they felt like they stood out from the crowd. Then he saw them again.
With Xiao Ying beside him, Zheng He couldn't help but chuckle, turned to Xia Xun and said, "Liaodong's scenery is a bit rough, but these women have unparalleled looks. The Duke is so lucky!"
Xia Xun said with a smile: "My father-in-law is joking. They are just joining a few poor women sent by various tribes to do some miscellaneous things in the mansion and give them a place to live."
After speaking, he asked the steward: "Has the arrangement for father-in-law's sleeping place been arranged?"
The steward said respectfully, "Sir, everything has been arranged."
Xia Xun nodded and said to Zheng He: "Then go and have a rest, father-in-law. I have been away from Liaodong for so long, and I still have some things to deal with."
Zheng He's position was much lower than his, so Xia Xun couldn't just send him to his dormitory. If you go beyond the rules, even if it's out of respect, it will be self-defeating. What's more, Ming Ming
The eunuchs in the early days did not dare to be arrogant even though they were doing their jobs. The eunuchs who had followed Zhu Di for many years were even more cautious and behaved in a well-behaved manner. Even if he was willing to give it away, Zheng He would not agree.
When Zheng He accompanied him to the back house, he saw many officials and tribal leaders such as Zhang Jun, Wan Shiyu, Ding Yu, Meng Ge Timur, etc. did not say goodbye, but were waiting in the hall, knowing that Xia Xun was indeed
There were still many things to be busy with, so I bowed my hand to him and, led by the steward, walked directly to my dormitory.
Xia Xun turned to the few servants and maids who were standing respectfully and smiled and said: "Okay, you all go about your own business. The governor has just come back and has a lot of official business backlog. He still has to meet a few people and handle some confidential business.
, no need for anyone to serve you!”
"yes!"
Everyone responded, bowed to Xia Xun and left. Xiaoying was just a maid, so naturally she didn't dare to behave out of the ordinary at this time. She also said that her performance was flawless, and Xia Xun had not yet become suspicious of her, so
Still interpreting her role perfectly, her eyes flashed, and she glanced at Xia Xun with a faint resentment. Look at that look, which appropriately expresses the appearance of a little girl who has not been favored and cared for by her master, and it complements her charming appearance.
His face is particularly pitiful.
"My lord has not come back until today. I am afraid that the tribal leaders can't wait for a long time and want to file a complaint against Lord Wan in front of my lord."
"Hey! If they know who they are, they'd better not open their mouths. Mr. Wan is an official promoted by the ministry. Who is far away and who is near? Don't you see Mr. Wan waiting outside?"
"Hey! That man without a beard is the father-in-law in front of the emperor? Don't they all say that father-in-laws look like women and speak like women? I don't even look like him!"
"Eunuch-in-law, it's just that he doesn't have a beard. Who said they sound like women when they speak? That's nonsense. Eunuch Ha, have you seen him? Like Eunuch Zheng, he is also tall and handsome.
Mighty."
"I haven't seen you. I've been working in the back house since I got to the governor's office."
"I brought tea to Eunuch Yishiha and met him once. If he didn't have a beard, he would be the same as other men."
"That's right, that's wrong. What my father-in-law doesn't have is more than a beard..."
"Ha ha ha ha……"
The servants talked to each other and laughed happily. Sanapova and Zilata's Chinese has improved a little bit, but listening to them, they still can't understand at least 70%, and only 30% or 20% can be understood.
She just listens with her big blue eyes and smiles when others laugh. She can't go wrong.
Ulan Tuya was thinking about something: "Looking at his appearance, he didn't suspect me. However, when Amul and the others instigated various gangs, even though the man named Wan killed many culprits, he is still continuing.
There is no guarantee that I will not track them down if I trace them. As soon as they reveal their secrets, I will definitely arouse suspicion. If I want to take action, I have to do it as soon as possible.
Just now he returned to the front house and took a special look at me. These men are all perverts. He is unwilling to eat the fresh mutton that is put to his mouth? Maybe when he comes back tonight, he will ask me to sleep with him.
, at that time..., he didn't look like he had drunk too much. If he was poisoned, he might notice the taste was different if he took one sip, so he had no choice but to use a knife. This man was alert and had high martial arts skills. If he wanted to use a knife,
To kill him, in order to be foolproof, you must first please him, and wait until he is satisfied and fast asleep before taking action..."
When Ulan Tuya thought of this, there was only a cold glint in her eyes, without the shyness of her daughter's family. From the time she came to Liaodong, she regarded herself as a weapon of revenge. Her adoptive father Alu
Taiwan's "coldness" stabbed her heart hard again. Now she has completely closed off her feelings and only lives for revenge.
A few servants were still joking.
"Tomorrow will be very lively. The emperor has awarded many officials awards. The news has been brought back by Ding Dusi and Meng Ge, but we are still waiting for the official announcement from the ministry."
"There is also good news brought by Eunuch Zheng. Didn't it say that Liaodong will set up three divisions to govern the place? Many people will be promoted to high officials at once. The steward has started to prepare. The government has bought forty pigs.
Sheep, and the Temur tribe also sent two big bulls, saying they were going to make roasted whole cows!”
Cattle are agricultural livestock and are not allowed to be slaughtered casually. However, the situation outside the customs is special. For the tribes who live here and are still mainly nomadic, this prohibition does not exist. Cattle are not only commodities they can sell, but also
It's a kind of food, so beef can often be eaten here. Then someone burst into laughter: "Hey! We can also have a feast tomorrow."
Ulan Tuya listened to their answers and became even more calm: "The pursuit of Wanshi Realm is very urgent, so we should start early! If he doesn't look for me tonight, then tomorrow, I will be able to avenge him."
Got it!"
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
The next day, Xia Xun summoned the Liaodong generals, shogunate officials, local gentry and celebrities, and tribal chiefs gathered at the governor's office to announce the emperor's rewards to the Liaodong soldiers, soldiers and civilians. Previously, Ding Yu and Meng Ge Timur,
When Ahachu and others came back, they had already revealed the news. They couldn't remember the names of so many officials and the corresponding rewards. They mentioned a few casually, which made more people feel itchy.
Now Xia Xun has finally officially announced the list of awards for more than a thousand people. Xia Xun, Wan Shiyu, Zhang Jun and others read them out one by one like a relay. Some of them are not qualified to attend the lecture and have their own representatives from their superiors.
But those who could come to the scene, except for a small number of gentry who were watching the ceremony, most of them were rewarded. Even those few gentry who were just watching the ceremony often had sons and nephews in the army at home. Therefore, almost an announcement would cause a burst of excitement.
Cheers and waves of cheers came and went.
Chen Shou and Tang Jie stood in the crowd, witnessing the unheard-of revolutionary momentum. Chen Shou smiled and said to Tang Jie: "The Duke of Fu is really popular in Liaodong. There was such a big incident in Kaiyuan a few days ago.
, today it is still a scene of overwhelming support!”
Tang Jie said calmly: "It's all about benefit!"
Chen Shou smiled and said: "The Duke of Fu has fulfilled his merits and will return to Kyoto soon."
The words were concise and concise. Chen Shou only said this sentence and said no more.
The news that Xia Xun will return to Kyoto was the news that Xia Xun deliberately spread after communicating with the emperor. In order to smoothly hand over power to Wan Shiyu and Zhang Jun, who were supported by him, he is gradually reducing his influence in Liaodong
, the news has not yet spread to the people, but most senior officials have heard about it.
Chen Shou was not Luo Qian's personal ally. The two had a very good relationship. Luo Qian's perception of Xia Xun also affected him. At the same time, he did not agree with Xia Xun's various changes in Liaodong, so he agreed with Luo Qian and expressed his disapproval of Xia Xun.
Xia Xun protested, but there was no irreconcilable conflict between him and Xia Xun. After that, he and Xia Xun were comrades in the same trench when it came to the North Korean envoy's claim for Liaodong territory, and his perception of Xia Xun changed somewhat.
When he said this to Tang Jie, he was telling Tang Jie that he will leave Liaodong soon, and you will be an official in Liaodong in the future. Whether Liaodong is governed well and how well you get along with the Liaodong bureaucrats will depend on you.
It has a great impact on his future, but it will not harm him in the slightest. And based on his status, the Duke of Qi can't do anything to him. You'd better not act rashly.
It's just that he is a civil servant and Tang Jie is a military attache. The two of them didn't have much contact with each other before. Now they can barely get in touch with each other because they are from Beijing together. Chen Shou doesn't do things that are superficial and in-depth. Let's stop talking.
, how to understand it is your own business.
There was a lot of laughter in the hall. In the back house, Ulan Tuya closed the door tightly and put up on the table the spiritual tablets of her late father Harbala and her lover Ab. She made the last sacrifice and knelt down with tears in her eyes.
Long flow...
