Huang Chunhui is in the lobby, but he looks much thinner. Sitting there, he feels like a piece of dead wood. If it weren't for the sparkle in his eyes that occasionally raised, no one would have noticed this old man.
existence.
Yang Xuan came in and was shocked when he saw his appearance. He even forgot to salute.
"My husband has actually lost weight!"
Huang Chunhui smiled and said, "It's hard to lose weight when you get older. When you lose weight, your body will feel refreshed and you will also feel refreshed when you walk."
But Yang Xuan knew that it was abnormal to lose weight suddenly.
"Has the doctor ever seen it?"
"It's nothing serious, I'm just getting old." Huang Chunhui said calmly.
But Huang Chunhui is not as big as the emperor!
But if you stand the two people side by side, you will almost feel that Huang Chunhui is the emperor's father.
One has fair and delicate skin with very few wrinkles on her face. The other has rough, black and yellow skin with deep wrinkles that remind people of an old tree.
"Xiaoguan's wife is proficient in medical skills...but she has recently become pregnant. If my husband does not give up, I will bring her to show my husband next time."
Yang Xuan respected the old man in front of him from the bottom of his heart.
Huang Chunhui also saw this sincerity, "I am old, why bother? Hey! Your wife is pregnant and is about to become a father.
People say that if they are not parents, they are not adults.
When a child is born, you will have a headache. When you stop having a headache, you will be an adult."
"If you don't raise children, you don't know the kindness of your parents."
"That's a wonderful thing to say."
The two chatted for a while, and the atmosphere gradually became gentle.
Liu Qing asked: "Why is Zitai here?"
Huang Chunhui shook his head slightly, "He went to Chang'an this time. Although it is not a dragon's nest or a tiger's den, it is not simple either."
Liu Qing smiled and said: "Seeing that he was fine, I thought that even if there is trouble, it will be fine if he is fine. Young people, hard work is a good thing!"
Liao Jin said: "Hard work is hard work. This time Chang'an suppressed our northern Xinjiang. Zitai went to Chang'an alone. All the anger was directed at him, but we in Taoxian could only sit back and watch!"
Yang Xuan said: "They want me to go to the Ministry of Personnel."
"The Ministry of Personnel, it's a good place." Huang Chunhui said, "What kind of position? It's too low."
"Minister of Rites." Yang Xuan said.
"This is to take off Xianggong's arm!" Liu Qing said coldly: "Everyone knows that Zitai is a general under Xianggong's command. Take him away and replace him with someone else. Chenzhou has been alienated from Taoxian ever since.
In this step-by-step process, who are you going to get rid of next? I? Or who is it? Isolating my husband step by step like this is cruel and shameless!"
"How many people in Chang'an can take care of the overall situation?" Liao Jin said: "A group of flies are just staring at a few pieces of shit and flying around."
"Can't you say it more elegantly?" Huang Chunhui said lightly: "Disgusting!"
No, just thinking about the scene mentioned by Liao Jin, the pancake Yang Xuangang ate made his chest and abdomen swell.
After not seeing each other for a long time, Liao Jin looked slightly hunched over his shoulders, and he said: "Isn't it just shit they are fighting for? Well, then it's not flies, it's maggots, a group of maggots surrounding a few piles of shit!"
Huang Chunhui pointed at him, shook his head, and then asked: "What's next?"
Yang Xuan said: "Luo Shangshu of the Ministry of Civil Affairs spoke for his subordinates and was driven back home."
"This is the concerted efforts of the emperor and his ministers!" Liao Jin squinted his eyes, with a cold look in his eyes.
"Yeah!" Huang Chunhui nodded, looking calm.
"Xiaguan declined to go to court. Zheng Qi from the Ministry of Punishment said that the three major ministries were not in danger, so it was okay for him to leave office. It happened that Chenzhou urgently reported..."
"A large-scale invasion in the southern part of the town?" Huang Chunhui smiled.
"Yes." Yang Xuan said: "Because the DPRK does not allow attacks in Northern Xinjiang, Chenzhou is in danger..."
The atmosphere is a bit subtle.
After a long time, Liu Qing slapped his thigh, "Hahahaha!"
Liao Jin also laughed.
Only Huang Chunhui looked calm, and looked at Yang Xuan with a gentler look in his eyes.
No!
It seems kind!
Yang Xuan felt that everything about him had been seen through by this old man.
He was shocked, "Soon after Luo Shangshu returned, Xiaguan came back."
"Well done!" Huang Chunhui said in just three words.
Liao Jin smiled and said: "Has the DPRK ever said that I will not be allowed to attack northern Xinjiang from now on?"
Yang Xuan shook his head, "I didn't say."
"I'm sorry to say it." Liu Qing said disdainfully: "If we are ordered not to attack again, the military and civilians in Northern Xinjiang will be so excited that Chang'an will also tremble!"
Yang Xuan felt that this was shooting himself in the foot.
The false emperor has trapped himself in a cocoon!
"Luo Cai is so rare!" Huang Chunhui said with a hint of memory in his eyes, "Luo Cai was known for his uprightness during the reign of Emperor Wu. He acted upright, and even Emperor Wu's relatives went to sue him to no avail. As a result, he was arrested many times. Framed, in and out of prison..."
"Hey!" Someone sighed, "How unfair is it for such a great talent to be wronged? Emperor Wu was the same..."
Huang Chunhui smiled and pointed at Yang Xuan, "Zitai tell him something."
The old man wants to test my vision.
Yang Xuan said: "I thought this was a helpless move.
Emperor Wu ascended the throne as a woman, which was considered a taboo for men in the world. It attracted countless criticisms.
Therefore, Emperor Wu had to rely on his relatives to help him.
But there are many good and bad relatives, some are greedy for wealth and only want to gain benefits.
Luo Shangshu's refusal was a good thing in Emperor Wu's eyes.
But Emperor Wu still had to coax his family, so he watched Luo Shangshu being framed and imprisoned. But if you think about it carefully, Luo Shangshu was imprisoned many times, and the most he stayed in was nine days. And he had food and food in prison. Drink, why do I feel like I’m on vacation?”
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Huang Chunhui couldn't help laughing and then coughed dryly.
He picked up the water glass, took a sip of warm water, and gasped, "I'm very pleased that you can see through this."
He waved his hand and several officials left.
Yang Xuan also stood up.
Liu Qing shook his head, "Zitai stays."
But the three giants from Northern Xinjiang are the only ones present. Is it inappropriate for me to stay?
Huang Chunhui nodded, and after the others left, he said: "The higher you stand, the farther you can see. But some people stand higher and the closer they can see, they can only see the area under their feet."
Liu Qing looked at Yang Xuan thoughtfully, "The higher your status, the farther you have to look."
Yang Xuan understood.
If you are the county magistrate, then you have to look at the state and Tao County.
If you are the governor, you have to look at Taoxian and Chang'an.
Every time you take a step forward, you must have the ability to analyze the thoughts of the upper level, otherwise you will not be able to go far or well.
The governor went to try to figure out the emperor's thoughts, but he was too far away.
Judging from the intentions of Huang Chunhui and the others, it was clear that they were just right.
Huang Chunhui said: "The situation in Northern Xinjiang will not get better. Northern Liao is watching covetously, Chang'an is watching covetously, and Northern Xinjiang is caught in the middle. If you are not careful, it will lead to collapse. Therefore, we must work together and have a long-term vision."
"Yes." Yang Xuan nodded.
"He Lianfeng has decided to be the crown prince. If nothing unexpected happens, the successor will be the imperial uncle.
With the lack of internal fighting in the palace, He Lianfeng could free up his hands to suppress Lin Ya and others.
Recently, Bei Liao has frequently launched attacks to wipe out various tribes. This is preparation for the expedition." Huang Chunhui took another sip of warm water to moisten his throat.
"The army of Bei Liao will not sit idle. Some people say that He Lianfeng is ambitious and wants to march into the Central Plains. But wait and think about it, how much food does the army of hundreds of thousands of people in Bei Liao consume every year?
But the army that was built with so much money was doing nothing. As time went by, it either became decadent or had other thoughts. Therefore, He Lianfeng had to find a place for his subordinates to vent. He looked around, and only Datang was his opponent.
.”
Yang Xuan thought of a war in another world. Before the war, several countries frantically built armies. The entire country's focus shifted from economics to military, and cannons replaced butter.
The army is formed, small tests are carried out, and the morale of the army is boosted.
Next, can you let the army rest?
cannot!
The will of the army and the ambition of the superior man made the two hit it off.
As a result, wars broke out and people were devastated.
After the war, the population declined and all industries were waiting for prosperity. As a result, mankind enjoyed a brief period of peace. Gradually, conflicts began to arise, tit-for-tat confrontation began, and the next war began to brew...
It's like reincarnations.
Therefore, when a country uses swords and guns instead of rice and grain, war is inevitable.
Therefore, there is a saying in that world that whether there is a war depends on the proportion of military expenditures. The higher the ratio and the more deformed it is, the greater the possibility of a war.
The Northern Liao Dynasty was obviously a militaristic country, and the money and food needed to support the army accounted for more than half of the country's income every year.
"The army wants to drink blood!" Liao Jin said: "But I have been looking forward to it for a long time."
Compared with the calm Huang Chunhui, Liao Jin is more like a war madman.
"After this time, Chang'an will be more suspicious of you, are you worried?" Huang Chunhui asked.
Yang Xuan had thought about this when he was in Chang'an.
Now that he has firmly grasped Chenzhou, his next goal is to sweep across the grassland in front of him and further expand Chenzhou's strength.
Then, Tanzhou, which lost its three major departments as a barrier, had no choice but to attack.
The battle and battle with Tanzhou will determine Yang Xuan's future in Northern Xinjiang.
If there were no suitable positions in Taoxian County, Yang Xuan could come to Taoxian County to work at this moment. But what can he do if he comes? He is not qualified enough, his prestige is not high, and he speaks in a low voice. If he comes, he will have mixed qualifications.
So what am I here to do?
Only by defeating the Tanzhou Northern Liao Army!
This is the goal Yang Xuan set for himself.
Defeating the Northern Liao Army in Tanzhou, his name will be resounding throughout the land of Northern Xinjiang. In the hearts of the soldiers and people of Northern Xinjiang, he will be the best candidate for the subsequent Jiedushi.
Northern Xinjiang, the place of the Four Wars!
In the hearts of the soldiers and civilians in Northern Xinjiang, Jiedushi may be illiterate, but he must be brave and good at fighting, and he must be able to resist the invasion of Northern Liao.
Yang Xuan shook his head, "I don't care what Chang'an thinks."
These words can be called revealing one’s true feelings.
Liao Jin smiled and said: "This is my Northern Xinjiang man!"
"Yes!" Huang Chunhui nodded, "So, what are you doing in Taoxian this time?"
Yang Xuan changed his smile and said, "Ms. sir, I originally built a small furnace in Taiping to smelt some iron tools for common people. But a while ago, the Wang family cut off the ore in Taiping..."
"Small stove?" Huang Chunhui smiled, "There is no ore in Tao County, but I can't help you with this matter!"
"Those stoves are not small." Liao Jin said: "However, I am quite pleased that you are so thick-skinned."
Only by being thick-skinned can you be an official and go far.
Yang Xuan continued to be shameless, "I don't want to ask for ore from Tao County, I just want a promise from you."
"Say." Huang Chunhui smiled and said, "I have promised everything I can."
The old man seemed to be in a good mood, and Yang Xuan said: "There is a small mine in Fengzhou next to Chenzhou, which has been occupied by horse thieves and bandits. I thought, why can't such a good thing be used by our northern Xinjiang?"
If Chenzhou wants to intervene in Fengzhou's affairs, it must get Taoxian's nod, otherwise it will be an overstep, and the consequences may be light or serious.
Huang Chunhui said: "Why do you get so much ore?"
"There are many workshops in Chenzhou, and a lot of wasteland has been reclaimed in recent years. Both the workshops and the people are in need of iron tools."
Iron is productivity!
Huang Chunhui said calmly: "Okay!"
After Yang Xuan left, Liao Jin said: "Yang Xuan is a man who likes to make plans before making any moves. If he comes to Taoxian, Fengzhou is probably persuaded by him."
"Sun Ying from Fengzhou is no match for him!" After Huang Chunhui finished speaking, his eyelids drooped.
Liao Jin asked: "What do you mean..."
Huang Chunhui said: "I don't have any interest in it. If he wants to go, then go!"
Liao Jin understood.
Liu Qing walked out of the lobby, looked at the sky like a landscape painting with his hands behind his hands, and chuckled: "The governor of one state interferes in the affairs of other states. You kid, you think anyone can?"
Liao Jin walked out.
"I have never seen my husband value someone so much!"
Liu Qing asked: "Didn't the deputy envoy do the same?"
