Nanjing in late July is no longer as hot as it was at the beginning of the month. The weather in this era, or the weather in recent decades, is that summer is extremely hot and goes away quickly, and winter is cold and comes quickly.
In late July, there was a slight hint of autumn coolness.
In the imperial city, officials arranged government offices.
Zhang Zhao is handling government affairs.
The Kingdom of Wu is about to be unified, and there are many government affairs and things to do. Zhang Zhao is busy in the Ministry of Civil Affairs every day. In addition, the place is big, memorials from all over the place are presented, and there is a lot of government affairs. Although various departments are responsible for their responsibilities, in the end, it is Zhang Zhao who
The final decision was very busy.
In addition, as the great steward of the Wu Kingdom, Zhang Zhao not only had to take care of government affairs, but also considered various matters such as selecting servants in the imperial city and supplying the royal family.
Lu Xuan was the King of Wu. When he was in Shu County, there was only a large palace and there weren't many things going on.
Now in the imperial city, Lu Xuan's concubines all have their own palaces. Under this premise, each palace must recruit palace ladies and arrange eunuchs to serve as servants. This is what must be arranged in the early stages of the establishment of the foundation.
The accumulation of things from all aspects made Zhang Zhao busy most of the time, and he also worked in the staff department at night.
At night, the staff duty room was brightly lit.
Zhang Zhao is arranging the autumn harvest, which is a major event every year. Spring plowing and autumn harvest are the top priority of Wu State. There can be no carelessness at any time, so Zhang Zhao personally arranges the political affairs for the autumn harvest in various places.
While Zhang Zhao was busy, there was a sound of footsteps. Xue Zong entered, bowed and said: "Zhang Shangshu."
Previously, Xue Zong was attracted by Lu Xuan and wanted to poach him away from Zhang Zhao. Fortunately, after Zhang Zhao complained, Lu Xuan agreed to allow Xue Zong to stay with Zhang Zhao for one year to handle matters.
There were a lot of things going on in the past two years, so Zhang Zhao approached Lu Xuan again, hoping to keep Xue Zong temporarily, so until now, Xue Zong is still working by Zhang Zhao's side. The current Xue Zong is similar to Zhang Zhao's secretary.
Xue Zong was responsible for conveying all matters concerning the official department to Zhang Zhao.
Zhang Zhao nodded and said, "Jingwen, what can I do?"
Xue Zong took out a letter from his sleeve and reported: "Reporting to the minister, it is the king who has sent back the letter. Please read it."
Zhang Zhao took it and browsed it quickly.
After reading it, a look of joy appeared on his face. Lu Xuan captured Cao Cao, destroyed Cao Cao's Qin Kingdom, destroyed the Han Dynasty, the emperor had surrendered, Liangzhou was pacified, and Lu Xuan was on his way back from Guanzhong.
Zhang Zhao looked down carefully and was a little surprised when he saw the follow-up. In the letter, Lu Xuan made too many adjustments to the state of Wu, involving Yuzhou, Jizhou, Bingzhou and Liangzhou, all of which needed to be adjusted.
Zhang Zhao read the letter, handed it to Xue Zong, and said: "Xue Zong, you are responsible for drafting the edict, drafting the transfer orders for the personnel involved in the king's letter, and then arranging them. The king is about to return in triumph, and we, the Wu Kingdom, will dominate the world.
Already."
"Here!"
Xue Zong bowed and took it.
He also showed a look of joy on his face and said: "Your Majesty rules the world. As the head of the six departments, Shangshu, you will definitely go one step further and be praised by your Majesty. Thanks to Shangshu's painstaking efforts over the years."
Zhang Zhao shook his head and chuckled: "What I do is just the icing on the cake. The real contribution is from the king and the generals who followed the king in the east and west."
Xue Zong said: "Shang Shu is too humble."
Zhang Zhao waved his hand and said: "Everyone's transfer orders must be arranged tonight. I will review them tomorrow morning and notify them quickly. This transfer will change the structure of Wu State, so we can't be careless."
Xue Zong said seriously: "Please rest assured, I promise to complete the task."
Zhang Zhao ordered: "Go and get ready, and prepare overnight. In addition, the news that the king has unified the world will be spread out directly, so that the people of the state of Wu can rejoice together, and let everyone know the news, so that the people of the state of Wu can be happy.
."
"As you command!"
Xue Zong got up and left.
There will definitely be a lot of things coming next.
Zhang Zhao re-wrote the battle report on the front line, only covering the news that Lu Xuan was about to return in triumph, and that Cao Cao had surrendered to Wu and returned with him. These messages were to be sent to Da Qiao, so Zhang Zhao wrote a special report.
After the letter was written, Zhang Zhao called the chamberlain and asked someone to deliver the letter to the harem. He was an official and could not see the princess at will, so it was most appropriate to arrange for the chamberlain to deliver the letter.
The chamberlain sent the letter to the maid next to Da Qiao, and then sent it to Da Qiao's hands.
Da Qiao felt happy and excited after reading the letter.
My husband is about to make a triumphant return.
The world is unified!
It's all good news.
Da Qiao was also a little excited. She didn't expect that one day, the person she married would become the master of the world. After she was a little happy, she regained her composure, thought about it, and arranged for someone to invite sisters Cao Xian and Cao Jie.
Come.
It was already evening, and the night was dark, but Sister Cao Xian soon followed.
The two entered the palace and bowed respectfully.
Da Qiao presided over the harem and generally kept the bowl of water in the harem level. Although there were more people, there were some minor quarrels and some minor disputes, but on the whole, the harem still maintained harmony.
Da Qiao asked someone to give her a seat. When Cao Xian and Cao Jie sat down, she smiled slightly and said: "During this period, my husband has led people north to attack Luoyang. Both of you are worried about the safety of King Qin. Now, the war in the north is over.
There is news."
Cao Xian quickly asked: "Is my father safe? Also, how is the king? Is he safe?"
Cao Jie also followed and looked over.
Both women were very worried.
It is true that they are married women, women of the Lu family. However, Cao Cao and Cao Ang are their relatives, so even if they get married, they cannot not care.
One side is parents and relatives, the other side is husband, and the palms and backs of the hands are full of flesh.
Da Qiao seemed very relaxed and said: "Whether it is King Cao Cao of Qin, your brother Cao Ang, or other members of the Cao family, they are all very safe. At present, the king has led his army to attack Luoyang, destroyed the Han Dynasty, and has returned in triumph at Banshi
on the way.”
"The King of Qin surrendered his country, and the King of Qin led his people to submit to your Majesty. This time, they will all come to Nanjing together. I estimate that after another ten days or so, it may not take that long for you to be reunited as a family."
"call!!"
Cao Xian and Cao Jie both breathed a sigh of relief.
Don't worry, don't worry at all.
Both women were afraid that something would happen to Cao Cao. Now that Cao Cao was safe, they no longer had any worries. Although the two women were staying in the palace, they heard about the situation in Wu and thought that Cao Cao could not win.
Cao Xian bowed and said, "Thank you, sister."
Cao Jie said: "Thank you, Princess."
Da Qiao looked gentle and said: "We are all one family, no need to be polite. The king is on his way back, and you will also see the king and the king of Qin, so be prepared."
"Here!"
Cao Xian and Cao Jie bowed and left.
Da Qiao also arranged for the maids around him to deliver the news that Lu Xuan had won and was about to triumph. As the master of the harem, Da Qiao came to contact and arrange many matters.
After everything was arranged, Da Qiao became more and more excited.
