Yu Yi said: "I have discussed with Kong Ming that Huang Yueying will come to assist you, and Yu Daye will be responsible for all the defense work in Chengdu." Huang Ruier refused: "But I don't understand political affairs, what should I do?"
Yu Yi smiled and said, "The biggest political affairs nowadays are to pacify the Southern Barbarians. I went there this time, and I will speed up the pacification with the Prime Minister. I will come back soon."
Huang Ruier had no choice but to ask, "Since that's the case, I will do my best. But does Your Majesty want to announce this matter in the court?"
Yu Yi shook his head and explained: "I have implemented the school and established a new talent selection system. I have offended many scholars in the city. This trip is also to make some people appear, so you will be under great pressure. I
You will leave secretly and you can buy some time. You can also try your best to delay and wait for me to come back."
Huang Ruier nodded and immediately arranged for the maid to announce to the public that Yu Yi was in the palace and would stay for one month. After Yu Yi explained the defense matters in Chengdu to Yu Daye, he took Zhang Xiaoya away from the palace and prepared to go to Jiangyang.
Walk towards Yunnan.
Yu Yi put on makeup and became an ordinary businessman, while Zhang Xiaoya put on makeup and became Yu Yi's maid. She also brought some followers and some money to leave Chengdu.
At night, everyone came to a manor. After entering, Yuyi found that the manor was very familiar. After asking about the situation, he learned that he had been to this place, which was Xu Shu's manor. After Xu Shu passed away, the manor was
After selling others, it has now become an inn.
After Yu Yi ordered everyone to rest, he came to the back of the manor, stared at a stone tablet in a daze, and sighed: "How great it would be if you were still here!"
After Zhang Xiaoya returned to the room, she found Yuyi was not there and cared about Yuyi's safety. She also followed her and found Yuyi dazed beside the stone tablet.
Zhang Xiaoya said: "Young Master, the temperature difference between day and night in Chengdu is very large, and it is easy to catch a cold. Go back quickly!"
Yu Yi nodded and turned to the tombstone and said, "I won't disturb you to rest." After that, he returned to the room with Zhang Xiaoya. Zhang Xiaoya arranged everything and felt tired. Yu Yi fell asleep.
On the second day, everyone came to a dock, paid the boatman, boarded a large ship, and prepared to flow down the Tuojiang River to Jiangyang.
Just as everyone was about to enter the cabin, a middle-aged man with big beard suddenly rushed out and said to the boatman: "We have ten people in total, how much does it cost?"
The boatman felt a little scared and trembled, and replied: "The boat is full, please come again tomorrow!"
The middle-aged man was obviously unhappy after hearing this and said, "I want to leave today, but you advised me to come again tomorrow?"
The boatman further explained: "Add to them, the boat is full." After that, he was about to put away the reins and let the boat offshore.
After seeing this, the middle-aged man was furious and grabbed the reins and said angrily: "This is simple, let those people come down. I am willing to pay double the price." After that, he led the people behind him to the boat and headed for the rain.
Yi is approaching.
Zhang Xiaoya held the sword around her waist with her hand and was about to kill him when the other party approached again, but was stopped by Yu Yi. Yu Yi bowed and said, "I don't know what urgent matters are you?"
The middle-aged man smiled and said, "There is no urgent matter, but anything about me is an urgent matter."
After hearing this, Yu Yi nodded and asked Zhang Xiaoya to withdraw some of her luggage under the boat, and then she got off the boat. The middle-aged man was about to use force, but he didn't expect the other party to go down by himself, so he turned around and grabbed the boatman's collar.
, scolded, "I won't drive the boat!"
The boatman is a stubborn person. Facing the coercion of middle-aged people, although he is afraid, he still sticks to his principles, just unwilling to drive the boat, just looking at the direction of the rain. The middle-aged man was very angry when he saw this and raised him
Prepare to teach a lesson.
Seeing this, Yuyi stopped him and said, "Boatman, I voluntarily got off the boat. This brother seems to be very anxious. You can take them away first."
After hearing the persuasion, the boatman shook his head helplessly, let go of the reins and went downstream. In less than a while, the boat disappeared from his sight.
Zhang Xiaoya was a little confused and asked, "Young Master, why should I give in to them? It's obviously they are unreasonable. With our strength, we can completely suppress the other party."
Yuyi smiled and said, "We are traveling secretly, so we should try not to cause trouble. Since we can't walk on the water, let's go by land." So everyone arranged to buy carriages and horses, prepared to walk on the official road and go to the river along the land route.
Positive.
After bumping along the way, Yu Yi looked at the scenery outside through the windows of the carriage and found that some infrastructure was still much behind compared to Chengdu. In addition, many places of the official road were broken, with weeds growing around, and some places were filled with swamps.
Everyone spared the road several times, and Yu Yi also came out of the carriage several times to assist in the carriage. After more than three days, he finally arrived in Jiangyang.
After checking in, Yuyi began to reflect on his previous strategic concept. The roads walking to the south of Chengdu were dilapidated. The deeper they went, the fewer people were there, and the surrounding swamps were everywhere. The land that could be cultivated was pitifully small.
The barbarians in the south did not accept education, and they did not necessarily obey their own leaders when they were recruited. It was also a difficult thing to go out to the Central Plains, let alone establish a base. The reason why they had such an idea at that time was only to consider Yunnan as the foundation.
, The average army cannot defeat it, and it is relatively safe. As long as it maintains prosperity and development, it can attack the Central Plains when there are enough troops. However, the actual situation is far more complicated than this. The time, place, and people are indispensable, not only the number of soldiers and horses.
How many.
In the evening, Zhang Xiaoya brought the food. Yuyi took a few bites and suddenly heard the sound of the wine jar falling from outside. So the two of them put down their bowls and chopsticks and hurried out to see. They happened to see a middle-aged man scolding him.
Waiter.
Yu Yi asked Zhang Xiaoya to inquire about the situation, and soon Zhang Xiaoya walked back angrily. It turned out that the middle-aged man was the same person who had forced the boat to occupy the boat. This time, because the waiter was slow to drink, he smashed the wine jar in front of him.
When Yu Yi found out, his face was a little bad. He walked downstairs and watched closely. He saw someone coming out to persuade him. He was kicked to the ground by a middle-aged man and moaned in pain. The middle-aged man glanced around and said angrily
: "Don't make me unhappy, otherwise I'll show you the color."
The waiter quickly apologized and brought new drinks. The middle-aged man disappeared a little anger. Seeing everyone dispersed, Yuyi and Zhang Xiaoya were also ready to go back to the room.
The middle-aged man suddenly saw Zhang Xiaoya, felt a little pretty, and hurriedly shouted in that direction: "Come here!"
Yu Yi and Zhang Xiaoya didn't look back either and were about to go back to the room. Seeing this, the middle-aged man was very angry. He picked up the bowls and chopsticks beside him and smashed them towards Zhang Xiaoya. When Zhang Xiaoya heard the movement, she hid next to her and saw a full load of rice.
The rice bowl was crushed and the rice was sprinkled all over the floor.
