Approaching the barn camp, there was a lot of dust, and teams of soldiers were rushing back and forth, carrying grain and grass for loading.Su An accidentally choked on the grain husk, and just about to cough, the curtain in front of him was lifted, and the strong smell of sweat came over him. Several food officials sitting around the fire laughed and talked loudly, as if there was no one else around.

Xue Jing walked to the corner and said, "The imperial envoy is here." Gu Yue looked around and asked calmly, "Xue Canjun, we came from the waterway, I don't know which town's food transport officer you are, can you introduce me?" ?” After Xue Jing stood still, he never replied.

"Little vertical!" a fat man who belonged to the Jingsai Army said without hesitation, "I said why the food is short this year, so it turned out that the imperial court sent people to inspect it again." Immediately, Baiyangdu town He squeaked: "How do you know our hard work in Beijing?" The man in Juyongguan shook his head again and again: "My master, if there is no food, we will punish you!"

Talking like this is not ignorance, it is a blatant provocation. Since even the food officials of Cangcao and Cangdu are arrogant, it is enough to see that Xue Yu's cronies must be spread all over the towns, forts, and gates, and their roots are extremely deep. .

Gu Yue held back his temper, and said: "Xue Canjun, if you have any grievances, you might as well say it here..." As soon as the words fell, the guards at the gate stepped in and said: "Xue Canjun, the Jiedu Battalion Commander Shi Zhaozhang, General Zhao, is here." Xue Jing said : "Welcome." Gu Yue heard this, and got up to straighten his robes again, preparing to meet this famous person.

Unexpectedly, this civil official in a red robe and a chestnut fur on his shoulders, known as the "General", looked like a scholar, when he just came in, his pupils locked, and he beheaded several food officials.

The officials of the Ministry of Rites were all surprised.Zhao Zhang said angrily: "Thieves play tricks all day long, just ask Xue Gong for fraudulent food, but dare to be rude to the envoys of the Ministry of Rites, this is intolerable, and will not be forgiven." Gu Yue persuaded: "Chang Shi don't have to be too radical. " Zhao Zhangdao: "Gu Lang, welcome to the Nuan Pavilion."

Gu Yue was then invited into the Nuan Pavilion by the river, and the rest of the people were about to follow, when the guards immediately blocked the way with their swords.Su An touched the pair of dark eyes in Xue Jing's iron helmet, couldn't help but shuddered all over, and froze in place.

"I just offended you so much, I hope you will understand me." In the pavilion, Zhao Zhang sat in front of the hollow apricot window, and added a piece of charcoal to the stove with his own hands. The charcoal fire gradually burned red, and there was no trace of smoke and dust. It can also be burned thoroughly, with a heat wave that smells like sandalwood, "It's just a few things, Gu Lang should already have an account in his heart."

Gu Yue said: "Understood, firstly, Mr. Xue has countless old subordinates, and he is willing to die for them at any time; secondly, in the boundary of Youzhou, Zhao Changshi has the power of life and death for officials of the eighth rank and below; thirdly, you Since we can find out that Gu often uses this sandalwood, he must have eyes in the capital and can file a letter of impeachment at any time to destroy Gu's innocence."

Zhao Zhangdao: "The number one scholar is really brave, straight to the point." Gu Yue said: "Don't dare." Zhao Zhang smiled, dipped a few drops of water in the cup with his slender fingers, and wrote a few words on the lacquer case: "Frontier Defense Zhao had the honor to read the Ten Strategies of the Round of Battles. Among them, the middle part talked about how to control the military power of the Jieduying. It’s bound to be a little biased.”

Gu Yue stared at the word Shui: "What does 'one hundred thousand' mean?" Zhao Zhangdao: "The mission of the Ministry of Rites came all the way to Youzhou. It was very hard work. Mr. Xue expressed his heart and rewarded everyone."

Gu Yue: "..."

Zhao Zhangdao: "If you go back to the court and say a few good words, you will be rich and honored all your life, why bother to disturb the New Year?" Gu Yue said: "So, with the great victory of Baishan, Zhao Changshi cheated the world and stole his name like this?" Zhao Zhangdao: "The number one scholar. " Gu Yue said: "Please forgive me, Chang Shi, Gu, you can't accept this bribe."

Zhao Zhang: "..."

Zhao Zhang flung his sleeves and left without wasting a word, while Gu Yue walked out of the warm pavilion safely after completing the most majestic, toughest, and most upright rejection in his life, and continued to arrange the itinerary for the mission to publicize the government.

No matter what Su An asked, Gu Yue didn't understand, until half a month later, they were traveling northward along the grain road, when suddenly a group of heavy armored cavalry rushed in, armed with guns and raised their hoofs, and surrounded them like a wall of iron and steel.

"Gu Lang, Mr. Xue treats you with courtesy first and then soldiers. He is benevolent and righteous." Xue Jing held the rein and shouted, "Young general, I have offended you."

According to what he said, there was an uproar in the court, Xue Jin, the censor Zhongcheng, impeached Gu Yue for the crime of disturbing the morale of the army with his unclean body.

After Gu Yue listened, he asked, "Dare to ask Xue Canjun, has the supreme authority made the decision?" The next moment, Xue Jing drew his sword out of its sheath, and a light flashed in front of Su An's eyes, and he saw the gold jewelry on Gu Yue's waist. The sword and the Shui Cang jade pendant fell to the ground.

"Gu Yue, the envoy of the Ministry of Rites and Zhixing Fan Yang, accepts the order." A civil servant came with his head down, holding up a golden scroll in his hand. Is there no one in Duke Xue's court? Accept the order!"

Su An said: "You are presumptuous! The decree should be..." Gu Yue sighed, without making excuses, bent down to hand over the rest of the accessories, waved his sleeves, and kowtowed to the ground.Su An said: "I can recognize the seal, you let me check the authenticity." Gu Yue said: "A Su, do you still remember the painting of the girl drinking tea?" Su An said: "Eighteen!"

Golden-patterned dragon scroll, with jute paper inside, from top to bottom, the Yushitai "received the form to hear, and listened to the imperial decree", the imperial pen "yizuo", the Zhongshu Ling Xiao Qiaofu "proclaimed", the Zhongshu servant Zhang Jiuling "served ", the Zhongshu Sheren "OK", the servant under the door examines the signature, and the Shangshu Province expedites the express post for eight hundred miles, which is a standard decree.

Imperial decree: After reaching the throne, he became more and more arrogant and extravagant. People said that he had a corrupt style of conduct, used power for personal gain, and deceived the emperor. .

Before Gu Yue got up, two shadows appeared on the ground, one left and one right. "Wait for investigation on the spot, Facao will take care of you." Xue Jing shouted coldly, and pulled him up. The sharp iron wrist guard cut a wound on the back of Gu Yue's white hand in an instant.

The blood dripped on the ground without making a sound, and Su An trembled all over.Gu Yue raised his eyes and said: "Asu, it doesn't matter to me, you go to the state city to meet with the mission on time, and follow the rules." Su An still wanted to ask, but swallowed again.

Within an hour, Xue Jing escorted the criminals to be investigated, and summoned [-] heavy armored cavalry to force the rest of the Xuanzheng officials to board the carriage arranged, raised the three banners of the imperial court, and escorted them all the way to the capital of Youzhou.

Su An sat alone in the car, letting the groom drive the car with his whip.Holding the pipa named "Duoshi", he first confirmed that the letters and documents in the mezzanine were intact, then lifted the curtain, and looked at the plain surrounded by green water...

"Where is Xue Canjun from?" In the evening, after eating black rice, Su An finally calmed down, and waved his hand to Xue Jing who was riding a horse next to him, "Since you recognize Xue Yu as your adoptive father, could it be that he came from outside the Great Wall? "

Xue Jing glanced at him: "When the disaster is imminent, you don't panic." Su An said: "In fact, in Chang'an, this is nothing." Xue Jing was silent for a moment, and said: "I have no father, my mother is Xi Ren, and the tribe was defeated. Afterwards, he returned to Jiyi Prefecture with the Khitan, suffered from a serious illness, and saved his adoptive father's life, so he swore to be loyal to Jieduying to the death."

Su An said: "The border guards are fighting bloody battles on the front line..." Xue Jing said: "You are singing and dancing in Chang'an." Su An said: "The general misunderstood. Xue Gong is hostile." Xue Jing said: "Young master, I am only in charge of storage, and I don't want to take care of other things."

After nightfall, heavy snow fell from the sky, and the bleak cold wind of Sanggan River receded all the glitz.Su An tucked into the velvet, couldn't bear the drowsiness and fell asleep. In the dream, there was a sound of "eighteen", the hand heater almost fell to the ground, and finally woke up again.

Driving across the plain, in the precipitous part of Guanshan Mountain, a majestic stone-earth mixed city towers up.The city is nine miles long and seven miles across, with [-] soldiers and [-] livestock and horses. There are four walls in the east, west, north, south, and eight gates, and a sub-city is built inside with two gates.

This city was named Zhuojun in ancient times and is now called Youzhou.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

It was named Zhuojun in ancient times, and it is now called Youzhou. It will be our capital Beijing in the future! ! !

With the changes in the diplomatic situation, Tang's policy of managing the northeast frontier and the military defense system are also constantly adjusted.At the beginning, the governor's mansion, prefecture, and county system were implemented, and the government soldier system was implemented. In addition, the twelve guards of the Nanya (actually ten guards) led the local Zhechong government soldiers. In order to defend the Turks, Khitan, Xi and other ethnic tribes, the Jiedu Envoy was gradually formed as the highest authority, and the "army" level garrison units were the backbone, and the garrison units such as "city, town, garrison, guard, pass, gate" were gradually formed. The military garrison system based on the military garrison system, while effectively guarding the territory, has also caused many conflicts between the governor and the Jiedu envoy, and also breeds huge military corruption.
