@@For Yang Xuan, Northern Xinjiang is his own territory. There are countless daily affairs. Although most of them can be left to Liu Qing and others, the current situation is complicated and he must sit in Taoxian to deal with it.
If it was just a salt well, it would be enough for Han Jilai, and there was no need for him to go there himself.
"For me and Sangzhou?"
Wu Yun's face turned pale, "Is the Duke planning to rebel?"
Yes... the old thief said silently.
He glanced at Han Ji, who looked at Wu Yun with more murderous intent in his eyes.
Old Han!
Too cruel, except for the Duke, there is no one else in his eyes!
Yang Xuan nodded: "You should know the current situation."
Han Ji said: "After taking over Longhua Prefecture, He Lianchun, Lin Ya, and Princess Changling abandoned their previous suspicions and joined forces to prepare for a counterattack in Northern Xinjiang. On the Chang'an side, His Majesty and Yang Songcheng joined forces to watch. Now.
, Chang'an even conspired with Ning Xing. It is like a mouse and a cat sleeping in the same bed, which is disgusting. "
Wu Yun was silent.
Yang Xuan said: "As that fellow said, paper cannot cover fire. The various forces in Chang'an have many informants in Northern Xinjiang. When they discovered that after the salt smuggling was cut off, there were still people in Northern Xinjiang.
When salt is supplied, they will follow the clues and find Sangzhou."
"I am willing to resign and swear never to leak a word about this matter in my life, otherwise I will be punished by both heaven and man."
Wu Yun raised his hand and swore.
"I believe in your oath." Yang Xuan nodded, and when Wu Yun felt relieved, he said: "Since I want to protect this salt channel, Sangzhou, I must control it. If I change the governor,"
You want me to be a puppet. Wu Yun smiled bitterly, "My lord, although I have no ambitions, I am not willing to be a traitor to the country!"
"Are you worried that Qing Shi Banban will turn you into a traitor?" Han Ji smiled.
The Duke in front of me is Zhengshuo!
"You are the eldest son of a powerful family in Chang'an!" Yang Xuan nodded towards He Lianyan.
When he learned that there was a salt well in Sangzhou, Yang Xuan was moved.
After capturing Longhua Prefecture, Governor Helian's army did not leave, but stationed themselves on the Cangzhou line to guard against another invasion by the Northern Xinjiang Army.
After the war, the Northern Xinjiang Army needed to recuperate, and Yang Xuan had to respond to Chang'an's methods, so he turned his attention to the south.
Chang'an and Ningxing join forces, which seems to be full of crises, but opportunities often breed in crises.
Take Sangzhou!
When Yang Xuan spoke, Liu Qing tore off several strands of his beard, and Song Zhen almost choked on a mouthful of tea. Only Han Ji, with a brilliant look in his eyes, said, "Okay!"
Yang Xuan even thought about raising the banner, but at this moment Beiliao is still a giant. Once his identity is revealed, Li Mi will go crazy, and then he will throw all moral principles aside and throw his family, country and world into the cesspool, hysterical
He wanted to kill Yang Xuan and destroy Northern Xinjiang.
The Bei Liao Society was very happy with this change, and Helian Chunhui and Lin Ya joined forces to form an army to go south.
Chang'an's army moved northward at the same time.
Yang Xuan shook his head and put this temptation behind him.
Northern Xinjiang is growing stronger, but it cannot deal with two powerful enemies at the same time.
Therefore, after he and Chang'an fell out, he stayed in northern Xinjiang and did not cross the thunder pool, which was to confuse Chang'an and the world. Boss Yang was just domineering and had no rebellious intentions.
At the same time, he frequently launched attacks on Northern Liao at the risk of being criticized by the people of the world for being militaristic.
He also wants to start a war on two fronts with great force, but that is not realistic.
Defeat Beiliao first, then turn around and turn to the south.
This is the royal way!
This strategy has been decided a long time ago. According to deductions, if everything remains unchanged, it will take less than a few years to weaken Bei Liao to a point where it cannot interfere with the Northern Xinjiang Army's southward march.
But I didn't expect that the situation would not change quickly.
No, Chang'an stopped salt smuggling and gave Yang Xuan a chance.
Sangzhou is located on the right side behind Northern Xinjiang, northeast of Chang'an. Taking Sangzhou will shorten the distance for the subsequent raid on Chang'an.
Yang Guogong was immediately moved.
He acted as soon as his heart moved. He thought carefully about it and decided to come in person.
One trip.
He Lianyan said: "The Wu family is not unknown in Chang'an. Our ancestors once followed Emperor Wu in the expedition and were granted the title of uncle. As the eldest son of the family, Wu Shijun should not stay in Sangzhou for several years. Moreover, Wu Shijun visits Sangzhou every year.
He said he wanted to return to Chang'an, but to no avail."
"The people want to stay!" Wu Yun said.
"Really?" He Lianyan said with a smile: "There are so many officials retained by the common people, such as Wanmin Umbrellas, etc. The officials are more likely to play with these than going to a brothel. But the strange thing is that the Wu family in Chang'an is indifferent.
He offered to help him, and according to reports, he even tried to stop him. Is this eldest son too much of a failure?"
Jinyiwei, like it!
Yang Xuan smiled, but inexplicably thought of Jin Yiwei in another world.
The emperor's eagle dog has power over the government and the public, and he can take whomever he wants. For a time, all the gentlemen are in danger.
But once the situation changed, Jin Yiwei became the emperor's scapegoat and was thrown out as a target. He got involved in the political dispute between the emperor and his ministers, and naturally it was impossible to end well.
Yang Xuan was very satisfied with He Lianyan's sense of proportion, and would give him a "surprise" from time to time, such as offending an official.
This matter of giving evidence made him dumbfounded. He wanted to talk about it, but he was worried that He Lianyan would endanger himself.
Power!
Once it is contaminated, it cannot be cleaned.
Yang Xuan looked at Wu Yun and asked: "I heard that the brothers in your family are quite... brothers, friends and brothers?"
Wu Yun sighed, "Jinyiwei's reputation is well-deserved, so this is..."
He looked at He Lianyan, who cupped her hands and said, "He Lianyan!"
"Commander Helian is so famous that he can't hide the Wu family's troubles."
Wu Yun smiled bitterly and said: "When I was in Chang'an, although I loved painting, I never became obsessed with it...
Is this... a drama?
Han Ji smiled slightly.
"Six years ago, I went on a trip and got very drunk with my friends, and then started singing and dancing..."
A group of old men were dancing in a circle, maybe even exposing their chests. Just thinking about it made Yang Xuan feel goosebumps all over his body.
"Unexpectedly, I met my enemy at home. Both sides were yelling and scolding. I had a lot of literary thoughts that day! The opponent's face was flushed with anger, but I didn't expect that the other party became angry and started fighting..."
Wu Yun patted his chest, coughed, and said in a weak voice, "I received a punch here and fell down immediately.
After I returned home, I underwent diagnosis and treatment for a long time. Famous doctors in Chang'an did a lot of examinations, but they all said that I would not live more than five years."
"Isn't it six years?" Wang Laoer muttered, looking at the shadow in front of Wu Yun, "Is it a ghost?"
Bang! Wang Laoer got a slap.
Wu Yun said: "Naturally, the Wu family cannot have a short-lived successor. I am cold and frustrated, so I rely on painting to entertain myself. Five years ago, I came to Sangzhou and had no interest in anything. I only knew how to paint, but who knew that I was known as a good governer?"
.I..."
Those at the top ignore it and let the people below operate on their own... How does this sound like a market economy?
Yang Xuan smiled.
"Sangzhou is poor, but after I came here, I put everything aside. My heart was empty and I only knew how to paint. I thought my body would get weaker, but unexpectedly, it gradually improved."
"Why don't you go back?" Han Ji asked, then shook his head, "Why did Wu prevent you from going back?"
Wu Yun said calmly: "Can't Mr. Han guess it?"
He handed over his hand and said, "I still have to think about this matter, and I would like to ask the Duke to wait a moment."
Yang Xuan nodded.
Lin Feibao had murderous intent in his eyes. Once Wu Yun dared to walk out of the gate of the Taoist temple, it would be time to die.
Wu Yun looked around, "Is there a quiet place?"
Han Ji pointed to the room on the right, "I promise, no one will be listening."
Wu Yun smiled and said: "The Duke is so powerful that he doesn't need to do this."
He looked at Yang Xuan and said, "I arrived in the north not long after the Duke! The Duke was originally a county magistrate, and I was the governor of Sangzhou. A few years later, the Duke took charge of northern Xinjiang, shocking the world, but I still remained the same.
It’s still the same governor, hahahaha!”
How can a person have no desires?
It's just that some are lighter.
Wu Yun said: "Don't drive Xiao Lan, please come in." Xiao Lan couldn't avoid this matter.
Yang Xuan nodded.
Xiao Lan came in, saluted, and followed him in.
Wang Laoer got half a piece of sheep from somewhere and came back, "My lord, fat sheep!"
Yang Xuan was a little moved, "Go out and bake and eat!"
Here I am thinking about roasting lamb, but inside I feel gloomy and gloomy.
"He actually wants to annex Sangzhou?"
Xiao Lan was dumbfounded, "He is so bold... This is tantamount to treason!"
Wu Yun knelt down on the futon and said: "Chang'an and Ningxing want to join forces to seal off Northern Xinjiang, so he will naturally fight back. However, if they take Sangzhou, they will be in conflict. If I don't follow, one of them will die.
If you follow me, your reputation will be ruined and your family will be harmed."
"Your Majesty, this must not be done!"
Xiao Lan sat down slumped.
"The Duke of Qin has arrived, so this matter must be done." Wu Yun said.
"How could you please me?" Xiao Lan said.
"I didn't want to come to Sangzhou at the beginning." Wu Yun's voice was very low. "After I was injured, Ye Niang was still concerned at first, but it didn't take long for me to get my brother by her side."
This is how a big family is, everything is based on inheritance.
"I think this is right, but I can't help but feel uncomfortable in my heart. Later, although my family didn't say it, they all knew that my brother would inherit the title and family business. I accepted my fate and painted all day long. But the next year, I received a call
Appointed to come to Sangzhou as governor."
"The scandal at home makes you laugh." Wu Yun laughed at himself, "At that time, I was already in poor health, but I wanted to appoint someone to the ministry. Mother Ye also said that it would be better to go to Sangzhou to recuperate..." "This is to catch up.
Are you leaving? A tiger’s poison will not eat its seeds!" Xiao Lan was surprised.
"After being traumatized and knowing that I was about to die soon, I was already in despair. The betrayal of my relatives made me even more hopeless, so I came to Sangzhou."
"After arriving in Sangzhou, I didn't care about anything except painting. I gradually forgot everything about Chang'an and the serious injuries I suffered... Unexpectedly, I gradually got better."
Wu Yun sighed: "When I was happy, I went to Chang'an Aye to write a letter..."
He didn't mention his brother.
"I didn't mention anything about the family business. I just wanted a loose casual job. Who would have thought that Aye would write back and say that Sangzhou is very good and that my family is also very good."
Xiao Lan was stunned, "This is..."
Wu Yun said: "From then on, I go to the hospital every year and beg to be transferred back to Chang'an. Every time I know that Wu has spent money to seek connections to suppress me, I am extremely happy!"
this……
Only then did Xiao Lan know the reason why Wu Yun made such a fuss every year.
"Chang'an, I can't go back." Wu Yun said, "But I still remember that person!"
The person he was talking about must be the powerful man who took action.
Xiao Lan asked: "Who is that person?"
"Chun Yuhu!"
"Chun Yushi?"
Wu Yun nodded, "I'm going to see Duke Qin, how about you?"
Xiao Lan smiled bitterly and said, "Please go away."
When Wu Yun went out, Xiao Lan found a stick and hit himself on the forehead. Bang!
A lump gradually swelled up on my forehead.
"Why don't you faint?"
Yang Xuan is grilling meat outside.
The firewood is burned into charcoal, and half of the sheep is placed on top and turned over.
"Can't you stay vegetarian for a few days?" Ning Yayun was upwind, flicking her tail.
"Aren't those vegetables life?" Yang Xuan applied seasoning to the mutton.
The aroma was overwhelming, Ning Yayun sniffed, "A Liang is different from you."
"Headmaster, please don't lead Ah Liang astray." Yang Xuan said calmly.
Ning Yayun was testing this, but judging from Yang Xuan's reaction, if he led A Liang to be ascetic, Yang Guogong would turn against him.
"My lord, Ambassador Wu is here."
Yang Xuan turned around and saw Wu Yun at the door, so he waved, "Old Wu, come here."
Wu Yun walked out and Yang Xuan waved his hand, "What are you doing here? Isn't it hot?"
The guards all dispersed, leaving only Lin Feibao.
Wu Yun squatted next to Yang Xuan, "The Duke of the country is good at his craftsmanship."
"Want to eat?" Yang Xuan asked.
Wu Yun nodded.
Yang Xuan cut a piece with a knife
After tasting it, "It's a bit bland." He smeared some more sauce with a brush, then cut off a piece of mutton and handed it over, "Try it."
Wu Yun ate it and praised: "It's delicious."
Yang Xuan asked: "Have you thought about it?"
Wu Yun nodded, "I've thought about it, just a question."
