Chapter 692 Xu Fengnian returns to Bishan, and the new martial arts master is released.
Xu Fengnian lowered his head slightly, watching the rain falling on the bluestone slabs in the alley and then disappear: “Zhang Julu is dead. Except for some potential things that will not change, many of his and Zhang Lu’s imprints in Liyang Dynasty will soon fade and then disappear without a trace. Zhang Julu wrote the Yonghui Spring, and that page of book, turned over. This is the most powerful place in Liyang. It looks like wind and water leaking everywhere, but it is actually as stable as Mount Tai. In the final analysis, it is because Zhao Dun left the family fortune of today’s son, which is not weak.”
The two walked slowly, and there was still some distance away from the Bishan County Government. Pei Nanwei stopped talking.
Xu Fengnian turned to look at her and smiled, “If you want to ask, ask.”
Pei Nanwei looked at him, “Don’t you know what I want to ask?”
Xu Fengnian put away his oil paper umbrella and suddenly squeezed under her umbrella. Pei Nanwei didn’t look strange either. She wanted the “couple and wife” to go to the yamen to quarrel and ask for debts, but as a result, they each held umbrellas, which might be dissatisfied and their momentum would be weak.
Xu Fengnian took the umbrella from her hand, and the two walked shoulder to shoulder on the street where they stepped out of the alley: “When I was on the way to Shenwu City with Wang Xiaoping from Wudang, I was not sure that I could live under the hands of Han Shengxuan, so I told Wang Xiaoping that he was sincere. My father Xu Xiao has never been a man of innocence. He said that Beiliangdao and Liyang are family members, and it doesn’t matter if they quarrel with each other behind closed doors. If life under the same roof is really unstoppable, then move out and set up your own door next door, and never interact with each other. But if others think there is an opportunity and run to the door of their homes to show off their power, then Xu Xiao I don’t mind throwing it over with a big mouth. It’s that simple truth. Of course, Xu Xiao also has a bottom line, that is, my son who wants to inherit his family business, as long as I don’t die, even if the process of inheriting the family business is not so smooth, Xu Xiao can bear it. If I die at the hands of the court, he would not care about Beiliang and would definitely lead 300,000 Beiliang border troops to Tai’an City. Back then, I traveled through the world with Lao Huang, and now the queen, Zhao Zhi, personally used guards to help me block the disaster. Obviously, as a woman, she could grasp Xu Xiao’s thoughts more with intuition.”
Xu Fengnian suddenly felt happy and said with a smile: “As for me, I said a big talk in the capital that year, saying that I would guard the country’s gates for the people of the Central Plains. It’s not the truth, but it’s not a lie. Anyway, I have to help Xu Xiao guard the Beiliang. Isn’t it just help the people of the Central Plains guard the gates of the Northwest? It’s just a matter of two minds.”
Pei Nanwei curled his lips gently.
Xu Fengnian looked at the yamen not far ahead and said softly: “The old woman in Beimang once said she was willing to rule the world with Xu Xiao in front of everyone in the two dynasties. Doesn’t it sound very exciting and heroic?”
Pei Nanwei nodded and said, “Yes.”
Xu Fengnian smiled and said, “This is a needle hidden in the cotton. Xu back then was back then.Xiao refused to rule the river and left a group of unwilling generals. If this was asked by Xu Xiao himself, the court later asked the Xu family to ride a horse and walk on the world, and used swords to the people in the martial arts world. You must not guess how many soldiers there were left behind. It was as many as 20,000, and all of them were elite soldiers who had experienced many battles. If Xu Xiao was willing to accept it at the suggestion of the old woman in Beimang, how many people would you think would be gone?
Xu Fengnian stretched out one hand and spun it: “At least 100,000. “
Pei Nanwei suddenly said, “So that’s it. “
Xu Fengnian narrowed his eyes: “In that storm, Xu Xiao and the old woman met outside the pass, and Tuoba Bodhisattva and I were each a groom. Finally, it ended in a bad mood. But if you think Xu Xiao thought it would cause the morale of the Northern Liang army to be dispersed, then you would underestimate my father and Empress Murong too much. She had agreed to Xu Xiao privately and put forward a condition that you wouldn’t even guess if you beat him to death. “
Pei Nanwei said casually: “Isn’t it just that after success, Xu Xiao is old and can only support him, but can you make Xu Fengnian the Lord of the Central Plains?”
Xu Fengnian was stunned and couldn’t help but swear, and said in shock: “You can guess this too! “
Pei Nanwei glanced at him: “I couldn’t guess it, but you said that. Anyway, it’s just incredible. Besides, Zhao Zhi is a woman, and I am also a woman, so I can’t guess what Empress Murong thinks”
Xu Fengnian sincerely exclaimed: “Awesome! “
Pei Nanwei said suddenly: “I’m not cold. “
Xu Fengnian looked confused.
Pei Nanwei pulled his mouth: “I’m really afraid that I’m cold, so I splashed the rain on my shoulders. Why don’t you just put the oil-paper umbrella sideways me? Is your sincerity too much? Take it away! ”
Xu Fengnian retracted his hand that was on Pei Nanwei’s shoulder in disappointment.
The two walked into the county government gate, and Xu Fengnian put away the umbrella. County magistrate Feng Guan and county magistrate Zuo Jing both lived behind the yamen as usual. Xu Fengnian, the chief clerk who was nominally the third in charge of the county government, should have a place, but he bullied Feng Guan at that time, “young, ignorant and without foundation” and squeezed out. When he entered the mountains to suppress bandits, he actually did nothing just because Feng Guan, who was the top leader, got a middle-class and upper-level assessment at the end of the year. Zuo Jing left some leftovers of “Fenrun”, and Bai Shangque, the county magistrate who went to Liangshi, successfully transferred to Youzhou Army. When the two passed through the yamen, they all the way The six clerks who were still on duty all greeted him warmly. They had a good impression of “Xu Qi”, the young chief clerk who had been missing for a long time, but in his enthusiastic face, he had a bit of fun eyes, which was both regretful and gloating. Xu Fengnian knew about this clue. Although Xu Zhuan was about to roll the bed and get out of bed, Feng Guan was not too inhumane after learning that this person was visiting. After all, he was the culprit, otherwise Xu Qi would not have to leave Bishan County so soon.In the old imperial calendar, let alone a year or two, many generals who work in the yamen to make money are not seen for several years. Who made Xu Qi, the son of the general who is not backing and does not know the current situation? Now, who dares not take Dianmao seriously? It is said that under the rectification of the granary governor of Lingzhou, a large number of unemployed families have been dealt with even more grandsons than grandsons.
Feng Guan sat in the study, playing with two new good items: bamboo root carving Shao Lion Taishi paperweight ornaments, and bamboo yellow Ganoderma lucidum jade Ruyi, which is said to be made by the old Southern Tang Dynasty. After hearing the servant’s report, he wanted to get up and go outside the study to deal with it for a few words, and he would not let Xu Qi take a sip of hot tea. But when the servant understood and said that Xu Zhubu’s “wife” was also with him, the county magistrate understood it and put his butt back on the chair, saying that he would meet in the study and prepare tea.
Feng Guan did not walk to the door of the study to greet him, and then the county magistrate saw the young man who should have a flattering face and crossed the threshold directly, and did not take the initiative to greet him politely. The next action was even more ridiculous. He actually asked his “willed widow” daughter-in-law to sit on the chair, and he leaned against the chair and asked, “If I remember correctly, the new chief clerk and county magistrate are both scholars to Liang, named Yang Gongshou and Zhu Ying respectively. They were both students of Qingludong Academy before. Now, there are great scholars in Beiliang, Huang Shang and others who presided over the comments on the articles of Beiliang scholars. Yang Gongshou is the leader of the half-year review in Youzhou. If you don’t talk about him, you will only talk about how Zhu Ying’s rule.”
Feng Guan was still holding the exquisite bamboo carving in one hand and maintaining the posture of treating tea with the other hand, and was a little at a loss.
He didn’t dare to look directly at the young man in front of him for a moment.
Feng Guan himself felt strange. Where did this kid get his official position? Feng Guan didn’t feel this pressure in Hong Shandong, the prefect of Yanzhi County. Feng Guan, who felt lost in appearance, put down the bamboo carving ornaments, took a sip of tea to moisten his throat, and used the official voice that he had only practiced for many years of practice in the public school and said, “Xu Qi…”
Xu Fengnian smiled and said, “My name is Xu Fengnian.”
Feng Guan was stunned for a moment and sneered, “I am still Zhang Julu!”
Feng Guan suddenly realized that the chief minister was dead, and was angry. He slapped the table and said, “Xu Qi, believe me or not, I can arrest you with your bastard with this bastard! Hum!”
