That day finally ended with Cai Xuning fleeing in despair.
He secretly and carefully finished the lessons with the live broadcast room, and gained a deeper understanding of Liu Xiu's black belly.Cai Xuning didn't know what he promised last night, so one can imagine how drunk he was.
But after pulling out a bunch of content from the system narration, he couldn't help but howled in his heart.
Look at this shit's way of exiting the stage, what kind of trouble did the fellow student Axiu make?
This looks like PTSD, right?
Gan!
Cai Xuning hated this coquettish way of exiting to the extreme.
Fortunately, this task is so long, I don't know if the next time will be a few years later, so I can feel at ease.
Cai Xuning's sudden appearance in the prefect's mansion, just like his sudden disappearance in the past, did not cause too many disturbances.
Of course, this is from his point of view.
Secretly, Guo Renyi had already searched for Xu Changping several times.
When Xie Jin came back, he was also taken aback when he saw Cai Xuning who was just doing nothing.For Xie Jin, who is strict and introverted, this is enough emotional fluctuation.
Cai Xuning greeted Xie Jin with a smile.
Xie Jin's first reaction was to look at Liu Xiu who was standing behind them talking to someone, and he said to Cai Xuning after a while, "I thought he would beat you to death."
Cai Xuning:?
"...This is too bloody." He couldn't help complaining.
Xie Jin said: "After all, you left without saying goodbye last time, he was very angry."
His tone was calm, as if he was saying ordinary words such as today's weather.
Cai Xuning touched his nose in embarrassment when he heard this. As far as this matter is concerned, it may always be his sore foot.
Xie Jin has a good relationship with him, and after reminding him lightly, he said, "Now Cai, Qin Yu is the actual person in power in the prefect's mansion. If you want to help him, or..."
Cai Xuning said with a smile: "Of course it depends on the situation. As far as it is now..."
He nodded pointedly: "Let's see what Ah Wen thinks."
Xie Jin nodded, and said that he wanted to bring Cai Xuning to drink and wash him off.
Cai Xuning: "..." No more.
He keeps a respectful distance from alcohol now, and it would be great if he could not see it for the rest of his life.
A few days later, the news of Xin Bolian's death was written by Liu Xiu and sent to Chang'an.
Cai Xuning was pacing around while he was writing, and when Liu Xiu finished writing, he said softly: "Now that Wang Ba is dead, even if it's not you who did it on the surface, it's hard not to link this matter with you . ” This document should be delivered, after all, a dignified prefect died, and the news cannot be kept for a long time.
But after delivering it...it might not be a good thing.
After all, no matter how you look at it, the biggest vested interest in Wang Ba's death is Liu Xiu.
Of course, Wang Ba will die in the end, of course it has something to do with Liu Xiu; but the person, after all, was not sent by Liu Xiu, so it is somewhat unlucky to be named as an assassin.
"Do you think that Wang Ba's transfer was the idea of the court and even the emperor?" Liu Xiu asked.
Hearing the words, Cai Xuning thought about it seriously, and shook his head after a long time: "I've thought about it for a while, if Wang Mang really suspects that Qin Yu is you, I'm afraid he will kill him right now. This kind of secret poking behavior , It’s the same as when the Li family was killed suddenly in Nanyang. I think it’s too sudden, and it’s too shocking. The Li family was killed by the order of the court, but it’s not necessarily known to Wang Mang. The fox pretends to be a tiger, under the guise of a name... Wang Ba was transferred here, maybe there is also a reason to wipe their own power. You are not anyone controlled by them, and it is not good for them to let you develop."
Zuo Gong Ma Zuoyi was able to be so smooth and reckless, naturally he had his own faction.
Going forward, it is a matter of fighting within the court.
From this point of view, it is not impossible.

[ID Cat Soul: Wait, anchor, do you know what you were implying just now? ]
[ID has no choice but to let the flowers fall: anchor, what you said just now almost clearly shows that Wang Mang and those who want to kill Liu Xiu are in the same group.Of course, this is not a problem, the problem is, how do you explain to Liu Xiu that you know about it? ]
[ID little confused: Ah, what are you talking about, why can't I understand?What did the anchor say just now? ]
[ID Master Qing Hui: I want to know what the anchor's little brain is thinking? ]
[ID is serious and cowardly: Anchor, you have to know that people will push their feet!Axiu is also human]
Cai Xuning pursed her lips.
It can be said that he did it on purpose, and it can also be said that he did not do it on purpose.
If trusting people is really such a painful and embarrassing thing for Liu Xiu, then it doesn't matter if he steps back a little.
In essence, Cai Xuning didn't say anything because he couldn't.
It's not that he doesn't want to say it.
If Liu Xiu really wanted to believe him, Cai Xuning would naturally tell him.
Is there any more convenient path than the main character also helping together?
The barrage was kind, Cai Xuning smiled slightly in that direction, then turned to look at Liu Xiu.
He didn't know if Liu Xiu guessed what he meant, but he didn't think about it anymore.
Cai Xuning turned his attention back to their conversation just now, if it was really Wang Mang...
He looked at Liu Xiu: "What do you think?"
"Everything requires a teacher to be famous." Liu Xiu said indifferently, his eyes fell on Cai Xuning for a long time.
Cai Xuning was thoughtful.
Whether it is or not, there should always be a big banner.
He raised his eyebrows, and looked at the wall outside the window with Liu Xiu.
Outside this wall are the people living in this Xinbo Pavilion.
...
Ma Liushan was making pasta on the East Street some distance from the prefect's mansion.
He looked a little chubby, in his thirties and forties, and his hands and feet were very nimble.There is a small noodle shop in the house, and usually rely on this craft to earn money for food.
Although he and Ma Zuoyi have the surname Ma, but the relationship with him in the genealogy is very different, and he doesn't even consider him a relative of his own.
"Lao Ma, come for a bowl of noodles."
"coming."
This kind of conversation comes up all the time every morning.
There were a lot of people sitting side by side in the noodle shop, and Ma Liushan worked hard behind him, and in this gap, the diners who came to the noodle shop occasionally chatted.
"Hey, did you hear that Lian led Wang Ba to die?"
"I still need to hear about this. Isn't this something that happened earlier? It's been several days."
"It's not his own problem? It was an assassination by the public. Tsk tsk, my brother-in-law works in the prefect's mansion. I heard that the blood spurted out from his chest..."
"But how could such a good prisoner escape?"
"I have to ask the prefect. I heard that the prison is managed by his people. How could his own people harm his own people?"
"Poor, poor..."
"What's so pitiful about him!"
After Ma Liushan served a few bowls of noodles, the whispers returned to calm, only the sound of sucking and eating noodles remained.
When someone finished eating first and their stomachs were warm, someone else said.
"If you want me to say, the most unlucky thing is that long history. I heard that last time he was busy in and out of Xinbo, and this time, he didn't get any credit. The court just praised a few words hypocritically, and put that Wang Ba Send it down..."
"What's the big deal, the prefect's mansion really can't do without a prefect..."
"But the court is so big, it's just a verbal compliment? If it weren't for Qin Yu's ability, the group of people below would have rebelled long ago! Which one of the following is not pursuing fame and money, but he has been busy for half a year and has nothing. .”
"It's also reasonable. Alas, if Wang Ba died this time, the court would think it was Qin Yu..."
"That's why I said he was unlucky. Which official is so miserable, the whole county is almost full of him, and he can't get it right. Let me see, he still wrote some documents for the court about Wang Ba's death. ...When the next order from the court comes, I am afraid that he will be arrested!"
"No, this is too miserable."
"If you don't believe me, just watch it. Even if you don't, you will probably refute a few words and then punish a few words. This official is really boring. When you look back, maybe Qin Yu doesn't want to be an official and run away." Is it..."
"Hahahaha yes, maybe it would be better to rebel."
Ma Liushan was flustered after hearing this, and when he couldn't help but chase him out to ask questions, he saw that the diners had already left.Those rough hands rubbed and wiped nervously on the towel, muttering to himself, "Chang Shi is leaving?"
Such secret rumors and rumors are growing secretly.
By the time Guo Renyi noticed it, it had almost become a kind of saying that each other knew each other in private, which made him startled for a while.
"My lord, this rumored indulgence... I wonder if it will harm your reputation?"
Guo Renyi said worriedly.
At that time, many people were standing or sitting in the house.
Xie Jin said calmly: "I'm afraid, although I don't know where the rumors come from, but this is already obvious. Is there any sentence that is wrong?"
Xie Jin's words are straightforward, but they also make sense.
Since Wang Ba's death, the worries in the rumors were indeed their worries, and they were not sure what the court thought.The last decree was quite confusing.
Cai Xuning said leisurely: "What is there to be afraid of? The sky is high and the emperor is far away. It's not like we don't have someone as reliable as Xie Jin under our command. If the court takes it seriously...so what if it's the other way around?"
He lightly threw out the words that everyone tried to downplay in their hearts.
The staff who were chattering at the bottom stopped immediately.
These words may have been thought about, but no one has ever said it directly.
Cai Xuning was reprimanded by Liu Xiu: "Don't mess around."
During the subsequent conversation, Cai Xuning was basically silent, just folded his arms and listened to the conversation of several staff members and Guo Renyi.After they all left the door, some people looked back subconsciously.
Cai Xuning grinned at him.
The man was so startled that he hurriedly fled a few steps away.
Cai Xuning:?
Bah!
Is he some kind of beast?
【Studio】
[ID Big Rabbit Ji: Hahahahahahahaha this is too funny]
[ID Taozi: You don’t have to be so vigilant about Xiao Xuzi, he doesn’t eat people]
[ID Nanguo Youru: Hahaha, this back looks so pitiful]
[ID Dihua Zhixiu: I am a little curious now what is wrong with the anchor in the minds of this group of staff, why are you still afraid of this? ]
Cai Xuning was also puzzled.
He poked Liu Xiu: "Did you slander me in front of your people?"
Liu Xiu said casually, "Why do you ask this question?"
Cai Xuning raised his fingers, and dragged Guo Renyi who hadn't left yet: "He even peeked at me."
Guo Renyi:? ? ?
Why is this also his business?
Liu Xiu raised her head and glanced at Guo Renyi, Guo Renyi subconsciously nodded and bowed, so that Xu Changping next to him wanted to slap him.
Isn't it obvious that he has something to do?
Guo Renyi's city is actually very deep, but it seems that he was scared out of his nerve by Liu Xiu in the past. Many things came to him, and he was almost transparent and frank inside and out, but he couldn't hide his words.
I don't know how many times Guo Renyi has scolded him for this stinking problem in private, but whether his calf is shaking or trembling, those who don't know think that Chang Shi scolds him every day.
"Guo Renyi?" Liu Xiu's ending sound rose slightly.
Guo Renyi recruited everything.
"Actually, people in the mansion are very curious about Mr. Cai in private. After all, he came suddenly and often went in and out with the lord. His attitude towards the lord is very intimate, which can't help but make people feel confused...so some people think Mr. Cai, maybe , male favorite child molester..."
He stammered, and those who didn't know thought he had a needle stuck in his throat.
Of course, this rumor has been refuted several times.
But I don't know what's going on, it comes and goes, the rumors are like weeds regrowing in the spring breeze, tossing and tossing, there are always some people spreading the word.
Cai Xuning laughed out loud, not even the slightest bit of gloom left on his face.
"With my body, can I be considered soft and beautiful? Which family is looking for a child molester, and they won't fall in love with me?" Cai Xuning said with a smile.
"You are biased." Xie Jin frowned: "Some people just prefer your model."
Cai Xuning rubbed his chin when he heard the words, and started chatting with Guo Renyi: "Is there a Nanfeng Pavilion in this city?"
He thought that the ancient people liked the soft and beautiful mouth, so is it possible to have a flat body?
"Not really." Guo Renyi replied subconsciously.
Cai Xuning's appearance looked a little pity.
Liu Xiu said indifferently: "How long has this been reported?"
Guo Renyi thought for a while and said in a low voice, "It was about two days after Mr. Cai came back."
Xu Changping is not busy in the mansion recently, so he doesn't know anything about it, he thought for a while and said: "My lord, could it be over there..." His finger pointed to the former head of the prefect's mansion.
Liu Xiudao: "It's not unusual."
Cai Xuning casually leaned against the wall, and said a little bored: "It's just because Ah Wen doesn't have a wife, so I deliberately created some troubles for him. Otherwise, if there is no soil, how will the rumors grow."
At the end, he muttered two more words in his mouth.
People far away couldn't hear it clearly, but the live broadcast room and Liu Xiu could hear it.
"I didn't expect Yingfei to hunt, but I was shot by the slingshot when I turned around."
【Studio】
[ID Gu Zhenjing: Ha, last time I guessed right, the rumors about Chang Shi were indeed released by Liu Xiu and the others]
[ID Baimao online scam: But none of them have any words of discussion in the live broadcast room]
[ID Getaway: Just last time, there is always a tacit understanding, the one who knows it well, the day the teacher became famous]
[ID Nuan Nuan:? ? ? ? ?The big brother in front has a good memory]
[ID Sawadeeka: But I don’t see why Liu Xiu and the host broadcast this rumor]
[ID Gothat Man: ?Can't understand this?It is to vaccinate the people first, in case he wants to rebel in the future, and there is no basis for popular support]
[ID user 57468: But to be honest, the rumors are running wild in the prefect's mansion, isn't Guo Renyi very capable?Why do you act like you're powerless? ]
[ID Xuanse: Now the entire new blog is almost under Liu Xiu's control]
[ID Lele: Don't forget, Zhang Huaide still has two county towns under his command]
[ID Durian Xiaoxiaosheng: How can you say that, I feel that the road to rebellion is just around the corner]
[ID I want to eat hot pot: it was almost the same]
[ID Dihua Zhixiu: I see, the rumor that Liu Xiu is gay is released to attack him?Didn't the ancients pay much attention to this? ]
[ID Chang'an Wantan: It's also a rumor, Liu Xiu is on the fifth floor, this person is on the first floor, not at the same level at all]
Cai Xuning glanced at the barrage, and there were various arguments about this matter.
He thought to himself that the audience in the live broadcast room was pretty good, and they rarely complained when it came to serious business.
Guo Renyi got Liu Xiu's acquiescence, and began to deal with the affairs of the mansion.
Originally, he was quite tolerant in Wang Ba's first seven years, but he didn't expect that someone would ride on his face like this, he really thought he was an onion!
After Guo Renyi sifted through the mansion, the staff member who staggered away never appeared again.
One day Cai Xuning thought about it and asked Liu Xiu about it.
Liu Xiuwen smiled and said: "something happened in his family, so he said goodbye to me. I gave him some money and let him go home." Cai Xuning didn't take this matter to heart.
At most, he muttered a few words about why he was looking for the same reason as Yang Su because he had something to do at home.
Liu Xiu raised her eyes inadvertently, and noticed that Guo Renyi beside her was shaking.
He smiled at Guo Renyi.
Guo Renyi trembled even more.
Cai Xuning rested helplessly on Liu Xiu's shoulder, trying to get his attention back.
"Why do you always scare him?"
His words were low and light, and only Liu Xiu could hear them.
Liu Xiu smiled lightly and said: "Knock more, and you will be obedient. Don't talk about anything else, the latest..." As soon as he talked about important things, Cai Xuning immediately put aside everything else, and only listened to Liu Xiu's speech .
Not far away, Guo Renyi noticed that the two of them finally didn't have their eyes on him, their calf softened, and they almost didn't fall off.It is standing by its tenacious perseverance.
He was sweating profusely, and he didn't dare to wipe it off.
Standing beside him, Xu Changping sneered lightly: "It deserves it."
Guo Renyi smiled wryly, but dared not speak.
...
In spring, the tail of winter is still there.
Zhang Huaide raised his troops and attacked Xinbo Dongchang.
This incident happened suddenly, and by the time Xinboting reacted and quickly sent troops to reinforce, Dongchang had already been besieged for three days.
Xie Jin personally led the team and led 5000 reinforcements to defeat the rebel army that surrounded Xinbo Dongchang in one fell swoop.
I don't know what Zhang Huaide's thoughts are, but in the next two months, he began to provoke him frequently, causing the people in the county to be unbearably disturbed.The prefect's office simply ordered that the entire county be on extreme alert.
Two months later, in the summer season, Xie Jin completely drove Zhang Huaide's team out of Xinbo.
The last two remaining county towns in Xinbo were also restored.
This matter made the people in the county very happy, and Xie Jin became famous in the county for a while, and the people couldn't help but respect and love the long history Qin Yu even more in gratitude.
Even for such a great general, wouldn't he have to be led by Chang Shi to do such a thing.
The ideas of the common people are extremely simple and unpretentious, as long as whoever makes them live a good life, they will follow whoever.
Some people think that this is an act of ignoring the people like grass on the wall, but in Cai Xuning's view, it is just the simplest problem like addition and subtraction.The simplest thing that people think about is life and death.Ordinary farmers and people are struggling on the line of food and clothing, but it is a bit demanding to ask them to think too much about their thoughts and future pursuits.
When Xie Jin rushed back, the prefect's mansion held a big welcome feast.
It's rare for Liu Xiu to let people eat wine, and he can rest for half a day tomorrow morning. This kind of treatment will naturally make people's mood even higher.
Xie Jin sat alone, next to Cai Xuning.
Cai Xuning smiled and said to Xie Jin, "Did you enjoy beating Zhang Huaide?"
Xie Jin drank the wine in his glass and glanced at Cai Xuning: "If you don't have any cooperation with him, I can kill him with one knife, it will be more fun."
Cai Xuning shrugged and said lazily: "I didn't come up with this idea. If you want to be angry, well, the staff below, looking at the tall and thin one, you can kill him to make him happier."
Xu Changping:?
Xie Jin said calmly, "I'm not a murderous maniac."
Cai Xuning laughed and clinked glasses with him: "Come on, it's fine if we can take back those two counties. Think about how many people are saved from being tossed about by Zhang Huaide, wouldn't it be a good thing? When we meet Zhang Huaide next time, You cut him down quickly, so as not to cause any further complications."
As early as a few months ago, Liu Xiu had received news that Zhang Huaide had been trying to move outside.
It's just that this person is greedy by nature, and he always thinks of both ends when doing things.While he was trying to cooperate with the Bronze Horse Army prevailing in the south of Jizhou, he was reluctant to part with his base in Xinbo.
In the early years, due to Zuo Gong's own cultivation, the Bronze Horse Army did not have any foundation in Xinbo, and there were not many active people.
Zhang Huaide wanted to get in touch with the Bronze Horse, but he never thought about what happened inside the Bronze Horse. Recently, it was extremely closed to the outside world, so Zhang Huaide had no way to find it.
He originally thought that he would use these two county towns as gifts, but he didn't expect that he couldn't even find anyone.
At this time, the prefect's mansion, which had been developing steadily for a year, had the idea of taking back the last two counties.
Zhang Huaide has been attacked by Xie Jin many times this year. Once he has a tendency to expand abroad, Xie Jin will spare no effort to come and "dispel" his thoughts, making him feel uncomfortable in Xinbo.
This is actually one of the main reasons why he tried to join the Bronze Horse.
After learning about Zhang Huaide's situation, Xu Changping made a suggestion.
The release of the Bronze Horse Squad who was previously imprisoned in Tailing Mountain can just be handed over to Zhang Huaide as a stepping stone.
In exchange for the price of his leaving Xinbo.
Now that Xinbo is developing silently, if it can be exchanged for the return of the county at the lowest price, it will undoubtedly be a good thing.But if you want to fight, it's not impossible.
Zhang Huaide was unwilling at first, but he wanted him to hand over the two counties for such a small profit, and he is not a fool!
Half a month before mobilizing the county soldiers on the bright side, Xie Jin had already rushed to the border line.
If Zhang Huaide is willing, he will hand it over to someone instead of pretending to be like this.
If Zhang Huaide doesn't want to, then hit him.
It doesn't matter how you fight, anyway, it is definitely not the prefect's mansion that will lose in the end.
After thinking hard for half a month, Zhang Huaide finally gave in.
Of course, when he left in private, he searched the people of the two cities desperately.After Xie Jin took over and noticed the incident, he led his men thousands of miles to chase and kill Zhang Huaide, and completely expelled all of them from Xinbo.
"Kill him to avoid future troubles."
Xie Jin said, "I don't understand."
Why keep Zhang Huaide?
Although it was difficult to fight, Xie Jin didn't think he could wipe out Zhang Huaide's men.
Although he needed to drink wine today, Cai Xuning took a trick and specially sent someone to send them all low-alcohol sweet wine, which tasted sweet but easy to get tired of.
He clinked glasses with the wine cups, and said in a low voice: "One is to preserve your strength. If you wipe out Zhang Huaide, it is indeed a good thing, but you will also expose all the strength of Xinbo to outsiders. Regardless of the court and What was the original idea of the surrounding counties, but making a fortune in silence is a good thing... Second, it happened to catch Zhang Huaide to explore the way."
They didn't know anything about the condition of the bronze horse.
"When did you let the spies in?"
As soon as Xie Jin heard Cai Xuning's words, he immediately guessed the meaning of his words, obviously Zhang Huaide had his own people.
Cai Xuning took a sip of the sweet wine.
"Then you have to ask Ah Wen when it was put in." Such a jubilant party lasted until late at night.
Xie Jinhaoliang, even if he poured a lot of wine for everyone at the banquet, he was the one with the clearest eyes in the end.
Cai Xuning had a chance to play tricks, and he is still awake now.
The banquet was gone, and the prefect's mansion gradually became quiet.
Cai Xuning followed behind Liu Xiu, stepping on his shadow step by step, the rare cool breeze in summer night blowing away his restlessness.
"Ah Xu." Liu Xiu turned to look for him, Cai Xuning quickly jumped two steps forward, and stood shoulder to shoulder with Liu Xiu.
"What's wrong?" he asked.
Liu Xiu said lightly, "Do you like summer or winter?"
This question was so sudden that Cai Xuning didn't think about it.
"I don't like any of them. If you want to ask which season you like, it must be autumn."
Liu Xiu raised her eyebrows: "Because of the good harvest?"
Cai Xuning laughed: "How can there be such lofty feelings? It's just because I like autumn seasons. Summer is too hot and winter is too cold. Although spring is the recovery of all things, it still has the chill of winter. Look and see, Only autumn is the most comfortable."
Liu Xiu shook her head and smiled, "You really... I've never seen someone so generous as you."
Cai Xuning approached Liu Xiu with a smile, and bumped his shoulder with his shoulder: "You think highly of me, I think your elder brother is worse than me." When Liu Yan was mentioned, Liu Xiu's smile faded slightly.
Liu Yan is now allied with the Green Forest Army. Some time ago, Liu Xiugang received news that they defeated the imperial army in Bishui together.
It looks like a broken bamboo, and the prestige is very high.
"what are you worried about?"
Cai Xuning asked.
Liu Xiu said calmly: "My eldest brother has a bold personality and a hearty and loyal spirit. Although he often acts impulsively and aggressively, he is able to unite his brothers and friends. It seems that some people go through life and death for him because of this friendship. He is ambitious and capable enough. .In time, it would be reasonable for him to be crowned king."
Cai Xuning was slightly taken aback, but he forgot about this.
Liu Yan is ambitious, not to mention that he is the son of Liu's eldest son. On the face of it, it seems that Liu Yan should be the one to do some things.
Liu Xiu's ability was rarely shown when he was in the Liu family.In order to avoid involving the members of the Liu family, he even often wandered outside. Although the relationship with his brothers at home was very good, there was still some invisible barriers.
If Liu Yan is really king, then Liu Xiu...
This is contrary to what Cai Xuning thought.
Cai Xuning said earnestly: "I think your guess is right. After Lulin and Liu Yan gain a firm foothold, they will inevitably elect one person to be king. Only in this way can we better control the situation and prepare for the final battle against Wang Mang. But I don't think this person will be Liu Yan.
"Although it is said that Liu Yan is cooperating with Lulin, he is a foreigner after all, and Lulin's influence is stronger than him. Even if he chooses the right candidate, he will only choose from his own family. Even if Liu Yan doesn't want to, there is nothing he can do. And Lost this opportunity, Liu Yan wants to regain the throne of God, the only way is to seize the throne first after killing Wang Mang and announce it to the world; or kill the Han family who is king in the green forest... It can be done."

[ID Young Master Han: Hey!Talking bad about his elder brother in front of Axiu, you are really capable, anchor]
[ID Xiemei Nandi: If this is not love]

[ID is hungry: The mission of the anchor is for Liu Xiu, of course Liu Yan is not in his consideration]
"Ash, you can't."
Liu Xiu did not directly respond to what Cai Xuning said, but instead spoke softly to Cai Xuning after a moment of silence.
He was soft and gentle, like a gentle remonstrance.
Cai Xuning couldn't help laughing.
"I'm not stupid, of course I won't."
Attack the Liu family?
hiss--
This was indeed completely out of Cai Xuning's consideration.
Liu Xiu's heart knot had something to do with this, if he still took action on this matter, let alone Liu Xiu, Cai Xuning would not be able to do it himself.
"Anyway, your family is safe now, you might as well think about yourself." Cai Xuning said.
Liu Xiudao: "Now there are green forests to attract the attention of the imperial court, but Jizhou is not eye-catching."
"But we still can't take it lightly." Cai Xuning murmured, he still remembered that there was a 90.00% possibility that Wang Mang was a time traveler.According to false historical records, the person who finally succeeded was precisely Wang Mang.
For so many days, he will never do nothing.
"Don't be afraid." Liu Xiu seemed to see what Cai Xuning was worried about, and said lightly, "It's almost there."
...
Xijing Chang'an.
Wang Mang sits high on the resplendent and magnificent throne, holding a document in his hand and looking at it.
Refreshing incense is burning in the hall, and the curling fragrance spreads in the hall, which makes people refreshed suddenly.The ground was covered with a large soft carpet, and the boots stepped on it almost silently.
"Your Majesty, this is a message from the Weapons Department."
The attendant quietly handed over a document.
Wang Mang took it and looked at it for a while, then said hello, saying that he deserved a reward.
Someone will reward them according to the rules.
"Your Majesty, the time has come."
I don't know how long Wang Mang watched it again, but another attendant asked for some time.
"Let them in."
Wang Mang agreed, and the courtiers who had been waiting outside for a long time filed in.
Although the emperor is now over half a hundred years old, his temples are a little gray, but his strong and powerful body is stuffed under the dragon robe, and he speaks with a lot of air. Totally dope.
Wang Mang likes to hold small court meetings recently, and he chooses the time randomly from time to time, making the courtiers tense all the time.
"Your Majesty, the Greenwood rebels are now attacking Wancheng..."
"The improvement of the Weapons Department has been gradually put on the agenda, and it will be ready in a few months..."
"There are alien races outside Youzhou who are ready to move, and the imperial court still needs to..."
"The two rebels, Red Eyebrow and Bronze Horse, are now..."
"Except for the insurgents, Jizhou Xinbo took back the rest of the county..."
One after another, news from all over the world was collected and discussed on court affairs.
Wang Mang said abruptly, "Among the Greenwood rebels, is there someone named Liu Xiu?"
This was said suddenly, and the person who was reporting back was stunned.The person next to him interjected: "Return to Your Majesty, Liu Yan, Liu Xuan and others among the Liu surnames of the Han family in the Green Forest Rebel Army are outstanding, but it seems that they have never heard of a person named Liu Xiu."
Wang Mang half closed his eyes.
He nodded and said, "Then kill the two outstanding ones first."
"Here."
Even if it is difficult to follow this order, it must be done.
Wang Mang said again: "The new blog just now... I vaguely remember that this happened earlier?"
The courtier hurriedly bowed and said: "That's true. Previously, Xinbo was divided in several places by the rebels, rebels, and county soldiers. The former prefect Zuo Gong and Bie Jiama died in righteous battles. Qin Yu consolidated this situation. Later, the imperial court transferred the new prefect Wang Ba from Zhongshan County to take up the post. As a result, he was mistakenly arrested and assassinated by a ranger who broke prison by mistake. Furthermore, the news just arrived today, it has already Take back the last two cities from the thieves."
"Death in battle?" Wang Mang sneered, as if looking at some inconspicuous plankton, "Forget it, so many things happened in this new blog one after another, and you all turned a blind eye?"
His words seemed indifferent, but as soon as he uttered them, he was sweating profusely.
Zuo Gong had already taken care of all those matters before, if the old accounts were to be turned over, there would be too many things to turn up.Regarding those things about Xinbo, they have always been covered up when they can.
Wang Mang has too many things to be busy with, and some unimportant things will be temporarily handed over to the courtiers for review, but they are all those things. Now that the new dynasty is in such a mess, how can the chaos go any further?
He is in control of the general direction, and now the situation is gradually improving, and the uprising posture in various places has gradually stabilized.
Give him some more time, this is the last thing to worry about.
But in this busy schedule, it is easy to make some mistakes.
Wang Mang pinched his nose with some headache.
No trace of Liu Xiu has been found yet.
Wang Mang's identity is too powerful, after all, he is the current emperor of the new dynasty, so he came in later than anyone else.When he stabilized the situation in the court and immediately pulled his hand away to look for Liu Xiu, he found that his "good partners" had failed many times, which frightened Liu Xiu into a frightened bird.
As early as a few months ago, Liu Xiu left Chang'an.
Wang Mang has already found out the person who made the move in Chang'an.
Coincidentally, this person is also named Liu Xiu.
His original name was Liu Xin, and he was regarded as a well-known Confucian scholar since the Western Han Dynasty, studying those gods and gods.Li Tong's father once studied with him.
Liu Xin was the first person to discover that Liu Xiu was in Chang'an. At that time, out of caution, he did not attack Liu Xiu immediately. Instead, he ordered people to suppress and attack him many times in private, trying to make Liu Xiu half dead before doing it himself.
After all, his body is powerless.
In Wang Mang's view, this is simply extremely stupid.
Why are you so tied up, why don't you simply tie Liu Xiu here?No matter how powerful a character is tied up, can he still have the ability to shrink his bones?
Liu Xin's surprise made Liu Xiu leave Chang'an immediately.
Wang Mang also arranged for people to follow him in Nanyang. After digging out the news from Liu Xin that there was no trace of Liu Xiu in Chang'an, he immediately sent more people to Nanyang, trying to catch Liu Xiu back without fail.
However, it was just the gap between the front and back feet, but within a few days of turning the year, Liu Xiu left Nanyang again, and has never been seen again.
if not
He secretly and carefully finished the lessons with the live broadcast room, and gained a deeper understanding of Liu Xiu's black belly.Cai Xuning didn't know what he promised last night, so one can imagine how drunk he was.
But after pulling out a bunch of content from the system narration, he couldn't help but howled in his heart.
Look at this shit's way of exiting the stage, what kind of trouble did the fellow student Axiu make?
This looks like PTSD, right?
Gan!
Cai Xuning hated this coquettish way of exiting to the extreme.
Fortunately, this task is so long, I don't know if the next time will be a few years later, so I can feel at ease.
Cai Xuning's sudden appearance in the prefect's mansion, just like his sudden disappearance in the past, did not cause too many disturbances.
Of course, this is from his point of view.
Secretly, Guo Renyi had already searched for Xu Changping several times.
When Xie Jin came back, he was also taken aback when he saw Cai Xuning who was just doing nothing.For Xie Jin, who is strict and introverted, this is enough emotional fluctuation.
Cai Xuning greeted Xie Jin with a smile.
Xie Jin's first reaction was to look at Liu Xiu who was standing behind them talking to someone, and he said to Cai Xuning after a while, "I thought he would beat you to death."
Cai Xuning:?
"...This is too bloody." He couldn't help complaining.
Xie Jin said: "After all, you left without saying goodbye last time, he was very angry."
His tone was calm, as if he was saying ordinary words such as today's weather.
Cai Xuning touched his nose in embarrassment when he heard this. As far as this matter is concerned, it may always be his sore foot.
Xie Jin has a good relationship with him, and after reminding him lightly, he said, "Now Cai, Qin Yu is the actual person in power in the prefect's mansion. If you want to help him, or..."
Cai Xuning said with a smile: "Of course it depends on the situation. As far as it is now..."
He nodded pointedly: "Let's see what Ah Wen thinks."
Xie Jin nodded, and said that he wanted to bring Cai Xuning to drink and wash him off.
Cai Xuning: "..." No more.
He keeps a respectful distance from alcohol now, and it would be great if he could not see it for the rest of his life.
A few days later, the news of Xin Bolian's death was written by Liu Xiu and sent to Chang'an.
Cai Xuning was pacing around while he was writing, and when Liu Xiu finished writing, he said softly: "Now that Wang Ba is dead, even if it's not you who did it on the surface, it's hard not to link this matter with you . ” This document should be delivered, after all, a dignified prefect died, and the news cannot be kept for a long time.
But after delivering it...it might not be a good thing.
After all, no matter how you look at it, the biggest vested interest in Wang Ba's death is Liu Xiu.
Of course, Wang Ba will die in the end, of course it has something to do with Liu Xiu; but the person, after all, was not sent by Liu Xiu, so it is somewhat unlucky to be named as an assassin.
"Do you think that Wang Ba's transfer was the idea of the court and even the emperor?" Liu Xiu asked.
Hearing the words, Cai Xuning thought about it seriously, and shook his head after a long time: "I've thought about it for a while, if Wang Mang really suspects that Qin Yu is you, I'm afraid he will kill him right now. This kind of secret poking behavior , It’s the same as when the Li family was killed suddenly in Nanyang. I think it’s too sudden, and it’s too shocking. The Li family was killed by the order of the court, but it’s not necessarily known to Wang Mang. The fox pretends to be a tiger, under the guise of a name... Wang Ba was transferred here, maybe there is also a reason to wipe their own power. You are not anyone controlled by them, and it is not good for them to let you develop."
Zuo Gong Ma Zuoyi was able to be so smooth and reckless, naturally he had his own faction.
Going forward, it is a matter of fighting within the court.
From this point of view, it is not impossible.

[ID Cat Soul: Wait, anchor, do you know what you were implying just now? ]
[ID has no choice but to let the flowers fall: anchor, what you said just now almost clearly shows that Wang Mang and those who want to kill Liu Xiu are in the same group.Of course, this is not a problem, the problem is, how do you explain to Liu Xiu that you know about it? ]
[ID little confused: Ah, what are you talking about, why can't I understand?What did the anchor say just now? ]
[ID Master Qing Hui: I want to know what the anchor's little brain is thinking? ]
[ID is serious and cowardly: Anchor, you have to know that people will push their feet!Axiu is also human]
Cai Xuning pursed her lips.
It can be said that he did it on purpose, and it can also be said that he did not do it on purpose.
If trusting people is really such a painful and embarrassing thing for Liu Xiu, then it doesn't matter if he steps back a little.
In essence, Cai Xuning didn't say anything because he couldn't.
It's not that he doesn't want to say it.
If Liu Xiu really wanted to believe him, Cai Xuning would naturally tell him.
Is there any more convenient path than the main character also helping together?
The barrage was kind, Cai Xuning smiled slightly in that direction, then turned to look at Liu Xiu.
He didn't know if Liu Xiu guessed what he meant, but he didn't think about it anymore.
Cai Xuning turned his attention back to their conversation just now, if it was really Wang Mang...
He looked at Liu Xiu: "What do you think?"
"Everything requires a teacher to be famous." Liu Xiu said indifferently, his eyes fell on Cai Xuning for a long time.
Cai Xuning was thoughtful.
Whether it is or not, there should always be a big banner.
He raised his eyebrows, and looked at the wall outside the window with Liu Xiu.
Outside this wall are the people living in this Xinbo Pavilion.
...
Ma Liushan was making pasta on the East Street some distance from the prefect's mansion.
He looked a little chubby, in his thirties and forties, and his hands and feet were very nimble.There is a small noodle shop in the house, and usually rely on this craft to earn money for food.
Although he and Ma Zuoyi have the surname Ma, but the relationship with him in the genealogy is very different, and he doesn't even consider him a relative of his own.
"Lao Ma, come for a bowl of noodles."
"coming."
This kind of conversation comes up all the time every morning.
There were a lot of people sitting side by side in the noodle shop, and Ma Liushan worked hard behind him, and in this gap, the diners who came to the noodle shop occasionally chatted.
"Hey, did you hear that Lian led Wang Ba to die?"
"I still need to hear about this. Isn't this something that happened earlier? It's been several days."
"It's not his own problem? It was an assassination by the public. Tsk tsk, my brother-in-law works in the prefect's mansion. I heard that the blood spurted out from his chest..."
"But how could such a good prisoner escape?"
"I have to ask the prefect. I heard that the prison is managed by his people. How could his own people harm his own people?"
"Poor, poor..."
"What's so pitiful about him!"
After Ma Liushan served a few bowls of noodles, the whispers returned to calm, only the sound of sucking and eating noodles remained.
When someone finished eating first and their stomachs were warm, someone else said.
"If you want me to say, the most unlucky thing is that long history. I heard that last time he was busy in and out of Xinbo, and this time, he didn't get any credit. The court just praised a few words hypocritically, and put that Wang Ba Send it down..."
"What's the big deal, the prefect's mansion really can't do without a prefect..."
"But the court is so big, it's just a verbal compliment? If it weren't for Qin Yu's ability, the group of people below would have rebelled long ago! Which one of the following is not pursuing fame and money, but he has been busy for half a year and has nothing. .”
"It's also reasonable. Alas, if Wang Ba died this time, the court would think it was Qin Yu..."
"That's why I said he was unlucky. Which official is so miserable, the whole county is almost full of him, and he can't get it right. Let me see, he still wrote some documents for the court about Wang Ba's death. ...When the next order from the court comes, I am afraid that he will be arrested!"
"No, this is too miserable."
"If you don't believe me, just watch it. Even if you don't, you will probably refute a few words and then punish a few words. This official is really boring. When you look back, maybe Qin Yu doesn't want to be an official and run away." Is it..."
"Hahahaha yes, maybe it would be better to rebel."
Ma Liushan was flustered after hearing this, and when he couldn't help but chase him out to ask questions, he saw that the diners had already left.Those rough hands rubbed and wiped nervously on the towel, muttering to himself, "Chang Shi is leaving?"
Such secret rumors and rumors are growing secretly.
By the time Guo Renyi noticed it, it had almost become a kind of saying that each other knew each other in private, which made him startled for a while.
"My lord, this rumored indulgence... I wonder if it will harm your reputation?"
Guo Renyi said worriedly.
At that time, many people were standing or sitting in the house.
Xie Jin said calmly: "I'm afraid, although I don't know where the rumors come from, but this is already obvious. Is there any sentence that is wrong?"
Xie Jin's words are straightforward, but they also make sense.
Since Wang Ba's death, the worries in the rumors were indeed their worries, and they were not sure what the court thought.The last decree was quite confusing.
Cai Xuning said leisurely: "What is there to be afraid of? The sky is high and the emperor is far away. It's not like we don't have someone as reliable as Xie Jin under our command. If the court takes it seriously...so what if it's the other way around?"
He lightly threw out the words that everyone tried to downplay in their hearts.
The staff who were chattering at the bottom stopped immediately.
These words may have been thought about, but no one has ever said it directly.
Cai Xuning was reprimanded by Liu Xiu: "Don't mess around."
During the subsequent conversation, Cai Xuning was basically silent, just folded his arms and listened to the conversation of several staff members and Guo Renyi.After they all left the door, some people looked back subconsciously.
Cai Xuning grinned at him.
The man was so startled that he hurriedly fled a few steps away.
Cai Xuning:?
Bah!
Is he some kind of beast?
【Studio】
[ID Big Rabbit Ji: Hahahahahahahaha this is too funny]
[ID Taozi: You don’t have to be so vigilant about Xiao Xuzi, he doesn’t eat people]
[ID Nanguo Youru: Hahaha, this back looks so pitiful]
[ID Dihua Zhixiu: I am a little curious now what is wrong with the anchor in the minds of this group of staff, why are you still afraid of this? ]
Cai Xuning was also puzzled.
He poked Liu Xiu: "Did you slander me in front of your people?"
Liu Xiu said casually, "Why do you ask this question?"
Cai Xuning raised his fingers, and dragged Guo Renyi who hadn't left yet: "He even peeked at me."
Guo Renyi:? ? ?
Why is this also his business?
Liu Xiu raised her head and glanced at Guo Renyi, Guo Renyi subconsciously nodded and bowed, so that Xu Changping next to him wanted to slap him.
Isn't it obvious that he has something to do?
Guo Renyi's city is actually very deep, but it seems that he was scared out of his nerve by Liu Xiu in the past. Many things came to him, and he was almost transparent and frank inside and out, but he couldn't hide his words.
I don't know how many times Guo Renyi has scolded him for this stinking problem in private, but whether his calf is shaking or trembling, those who don't know think that Chang Shi scolds him every day.
"Guo Renyi?" Liu Xiu's ending sound rose slightly.
Guo Renyi recruited everything.
"Actually, people in the mansion are very curious about Mr. Cai in private. After all, he came suddenly and often went in and out with the lord. His attitude towards the lord is very intimate, which can't help but make people feel confused...so some people think Mr. Cai, maybe , male favorite child molester..."
He stammered, and those who didn't know thought he had a needle stuck in his throat.
Of course, this rumor has been refuted several times.
But I don't know what's going on, it comes and goes, the rumors are like weeds regrowing in the spring breeze, tossing and tossing, there are always some people spreading the word.
Cai Xuning laughed out loud, not even the slightest bit of gloom left on his face.
"With my body, can I be considered soft and beautiful? Which family is looking for a child molester, and they won't fall in love with me?" Cai Xuning said with a smile.
"You are biased." Xie Jin frowned: "Some people just prefer your model."
Cai Xuning rubbed his chin when he heard the words, and started chatting with Guo Renyi: "Is there a Nanfeng Pavilion in this city?"
He thought that the ancient people liked the soft and beautiful mouth, so is it possible to have a flat body?
"Not really." Guo Renyi replied subconsciously.
Cai Xuning's appearance looked a little pity.
Liu Xiu said indifferently: "How long has this been reported?"
Guo Renyi thought for a while and said in a low voice, "It was about two days after Mr. Cai came back."
Xu Changping is not busy in the mansion recently, so he doesn't know anything about it, he thought for a while and said: "My lord, could it be over there..." His finger pointed to the former head of the prefect's mansion.
Liu Xiudao: "It's not unusual."
Cai Xuning casually leaned against the wall, and said a little bored: "It's just because Ah Wen doesn't have a wife, so I deliberately created some troubles for him. Otherwise, if there is no soil, how will the rumors grow."
At the end, he muttered two more words in his mouth.
People far away couldn't hear it clearly, but the live broadcast room and Liu Xiu could hear it.
"I didn't expect Yingfei to hunt, but I was shot by the slingshot when I turned around."
【Studio】
[ID Gu Zhenjing: Ha, last time I guessed right, the rumors about Chang Shi were indeed released by Liu Xiu and the others]
[ID Baimao online scam: But none of them have any words of discussion in the live broadcast room]
[ID Getaway: Just last time, there is always a tacit understanding, the one who knows it well, the day the teacher became famous]
[ID Nuan Nuan:? ? ? ? ?The big brother in front has a good memory]
[ID Sawadeeka: But I don’t see why Liu Xiu and the host broadcast this rumor]
[ID Gothat Man: ?Can't understand this?It is to vaccinate the people first, in case he wants to rebel in the future, and there is no basis for popular support]
[ID user 57468: But to be honest, the rumors are running wild in the prefect's mansion, isn't Guo Renyi very capable?Why do you act like you're powerless? ]
[ID Xuanse: Now the entire new blog is almost under Liu Xiu's control]
[ID Lele: Don't forget, Zhang Huaide still has two county towns under his command]
[ID Durian Xiaoxiaosheng: How can you say that, I feel that the road to rebellion is just around the corner]
[ID I want to eat hot pot: it was almost the same]
[ID Dihua Zhixiu: I see, the rumor that Liu Xiu is gay is released to attack him?Didn't the ancients pay much attention to this? ]
[ID Chang'an Wantan: It's also a rumor, Liu Xiu is on the fifth floor, this person is on the first floor, not at the same level at all]
Cai Xuning glanced at the barrage, and there were various arguments about this matter.
He thought to himself that the audience in the live broadcast room was pretty good, and they rarely complained when it came to serious business.
Guo Renyi got Liu Xiu's acquiescence, and began to deal with the affairs of the mansion.
Originally, he was quite tolerant in Wang Ba's first seven years, but he didn't expect that someone would ride on his face like this, he really thought he was an onion!
After Guo Renyi sifted through the mansion, the staff member who staggered away never appeared again.
One day Cai Xuning thought about it and asked Liu Xiu about it.
Liu Xiuwen smiled and said: "something happened in his family, so he said goodbye to me. I gave him some money and let him go home." Cai Xuning didn't take this matter to heart.
At most, he muttered a few words about why he was looking for the same reason as Yang Su because he had something to do at home.
Liu Xiu raised her eyes inadvertently, and noticed that Guo Renyi beside her was shaking.
He smiled at Guo Renyi.
Guo Renyi trembled even more.
Cai Xuning rested helplessly on Liu Xiu's shoulder, trying to get his attention back.
"Why do you always scare him?"
His words were low and light, and only Liu Xiu could hear them.
Liu Xiu smiled lightly and said: "Knock more, and you will be obedient. Don't talk about anything else, the latest..." As soon as he talked about important things, Cai Xuning immediately put aside everything else, and only listened to Liu Xiu's speech .
Not far away, Guo Renyi noticed that the two of them finally didn't have their eyes on him, their calf softened, and they almost didn't fall off.It is standing by its tenacious perseverance.
He was sweating profusely, and he didn't dare to wipe it off.
Standing beside him, Xu Changping sneered lightly: "It deserves it."
Guo Renyi smiled wryly, but dared not speak.
...
In spring, the tail of winter is still there.
Zhang Huaide raised his troops and attacked Xinbo Dongchang.
This incident happened suddenly, and by the time Xinboting reacted and quickly sent troops to reinforce, Dongchang had already been besieged for three days.
Xie Jin personally led the team and led 5000 reinforcements to defeat the rebel army that surrounded Xinbo Dongchang in one fell swoop.
I don't know what Zhang Huaide's thoughts are, but in the next two months, he began to provoke him frequently, causing the people in the county to be unbearably disturbed.The prefect's office simply ordered that the entire county be on extreme alert.
Two months later, in the summer season, Xie Jin completely drove Zhang Huaide's team out of Xinbo.
The last two remaining county towns in Xinbo were also restored.
This matter made the people in the county very happy, and Xie Jin became famous in the county for a while, and the people couldn't help but respect and love the long history Qin Yu even more in gratitude.
Even for such a great general, wouldn't he have to be led by Chang Shi to do such a thing.
The ideas of the common people are extremely simple and unpretentious, as long as whoever makes them live a good life, they will follow whoever.
Some people think that this is an act of ignoring the people like grass on the wall, but in Cai Xuning's view, it is just the simplest problem like addition and subtraction.The simplest thing that people think about is life and death.Ordinary farmers and people are struggling on the line of food and clothing, but it is a bit demanding to ask them to think too much about their thoughts and future pursuits.
When Xie Jin rushed back, the prefect's mansion held a big welcome feast.
It's rare for Liu Xiu to let people eat wine, and he can rest for half a day tomorrow morning. This kind of treatment will naturally make people's mood even higher.
Xie Jin sat alone, next to Cai Xuning.
Cai Xuning smiled and said to Xie Jin, "Did you enjoy beating Zhang Huaide?"
Xie Jin drank the wine in his glass and glanced at Cai Xuning: "If you don't have any cooperation with him, I can kill him with one knife, it will be more fun."
Cai Xuning shrugged and said lazily: "I didn't come up with this idea. If you want to be angry, well, the staff below, looking at the tall and thin one, you can kill him to make him happier."
Xu Changping:?
Xie Jin said calmly, "I'm not a murderous maniac."
Cai Xuning laughed and clinked glasses with him: "Come on, it's fine if we can take back those two counties. Think about how many people are saved from being tossed about by Zhang Huaide, wouldn't it be a good thing? When we meet Zhang Huaide next time, You cut him down quickly, so as not to cause any further complications."
As early as a few months ago, Liu Xiu had received news that Zhang Huaide had been trying to move outside.
It's just that this person is greedy by nature, and he always thinks of both ends when doing things.While he was trying to cooperate with the Bronze Horse Army prevailing in the south of Jizhou, he was reluctant to part with his base in Xinbo.
In the early years, due to Zuo Gong's own cultivation, the Bronze Horse Army did not have any foundation in Xinbo, and there were not many active people.
Zhang Huaide wanted to get in touch with the Bronze Horse, but he never thought about what happened inside the Bronze Horse. Recently, it was extremely closed to the outside world, so Zhang Huaide had no way to find it.
He originally thought that he would use these two county towns as gifts, but he didn't expect that he couldn't even find anyone.
At this time, the prefect's mansion, which had been developing steadily for a year, had the idea of taking back the last two counties.
Zhang Huaide has been attacked by Xie Jin many times this year. Once he has a tendency to expand abroad, Xie Jin will spare no effort to come and "dispel" his thoughts, making him feel uncomfortable in Xinbo.
This is actually one of the main reasons why he tried to join the Bronze Horse.
After learning about Zhang Huaide's situation, Xu Changping made a suggestion.
The release of the Bronze Horse Squad who was previously imprisoned in Tailing Mountain can just be handed over to Zhang Huaide as a stepping stone.
In exchange for the price of his leaving Xinbo.
Now that Xinbo is developing silently, if it can be exchanged for the return of the county at the lowest price, it will undoubtedly be a good thing.But if you want to fight, it's not impossible.
Zhang Huaide was unwilling at first, but he wanted him to hand over the two counties for such a small profit, and he is not a fool!
Half a month before mobilizing the county soldiers on the bright side, Xie Jin had already rushed to the border line.
If Zhang Huaide is willing, he will hand it over to someone instead of pretending to be like this.
If Zhang Huaide doesn't want to, then hit him.
It doesn't matter how you fight, anyway, it is definitely not the prefect's mansion that will lose in the end.
After thinking hard for half a month, Zhang Huaide finally gave in.
Of course, when he left in private, he searched the people of the two cities desperately.After Xie Jin took over and noticed the incident, he led his men thousands of miles to chase and kill Zhang Huaide, and completely expelled all of them from Xinbo.
"Kill him to avoid future troubles."
Xie Jin said, "I don't understand."
Why keep Zhang Huaide?
Although it was difficult to fight, Xie Jin didn't think he could wipe out Zhang Huaide's men.
Although he needed to drink wine today, Cai Xuning took a trick and specially sent someone to send them all low-alcohol sweet wine, which tasted sweet but easy to get tired of.
He clinked glasses with the wine cups, and said in a low voice: "One is to preserve your strength. If you wipe out Zhang Huaide, it is indeed a good thing, but you will also expose all the strength of Xinbo to outsiders. Regardless of the court and What was the original idea of the surrounding counties, but making a fortune in silence is a good thing... Second, it happened to catch Zhang Huaide to explore the way."
They didn't know anything about the condition of the bronze horse.
"When did you let the spies in?"
As soon as Xie Jin heard Cai Xuning's words, he immediately guessed the meaning of his words, obviously Zhang Huaide had his own people.
Cai Xuning took a sip of the sweet wine.
"Then you have to ask Ah Wen when it was put in." Such a jubilant party lasted until late at night.
Xie Jinhaoliang, even if he poured a lot of wine for everyone at the banquet, he was the one with the clearest eyes in the end.
Cai Xuning had a chance to play tricks, and he is still awake now.
The banquet was gone, and the prefect's mansion gradually became quiet.
Cai Xuning followed behind Liu Xiu, stepping on his shadow step by step, the rare cool breeze in summer night blowing away his restlessness.
"Ah Xu." Liu Xiu turned to look for him, Cai Xuning quickly jumped two steps forward, and stood shoulder to shoulder with Liu Xiu.
"What's wrong?" he asked.
Liu Xiu said lightly, "Do you like summer or winter?"
This question was so sudden that Cai Xuning didn't think about it.
"I don't like any of them. If you want to ask which season you like, it must be autumn."
Liu Xiu raised her eyebrows: "Because of the good harvest?"
Cai Xuning laughed: "How can there be such lofty feelings? It's just because I like autumn seasons. Summer is too hot and winter is too cold. Although spring is the recovery of all things, it still has the chill of winter. Look and see, Only autumn is the most comfortable."
Liu Xiu shook her head and smiled, "You really... I've never seen someone so generous as you."
Cai Xuning approached Liu Xiu with a smile, and bumped his shoulder with his shoulder: "You think highly of me, I think your elder brother is worse than me." When Liu Yan was mentioned, Liu Xiu's smile faded slightly.
Liu Yan is now allied with the Green Forest Army. Some time ago, Liu Xiugang received news that they defeated the imperial army in Bishui together.
It looks like a broken bamboo, and the prestige is very high.
"what are you worried about?"
Cai Xuning asked.
Liu Xiu said calmly: "My eldest brother has a bold personality and a hearty and loyal spirit. Although he often acts impulsively and aggressively, he is able to unite his brothers and friends. It seems that some people go through life and death for him because of this friendship. He is ambitious and capable enough. .In time, it would be reasonable for him to be crowned king."
Cai Xuning was slightly taken aback, but he forgot about this.
Liu Yan is ambitious, not to mention that he is the son of Liu's eldest son. On the face of it, it seems that Liu Yan should be the one to do some things.
Liu Xiu's ability was rarely shown when he was in the Liu family.In order to avoid involving the members of the Liu family, he even often wandered outside. Although the relationship with his brothers at home was very good, there was still some invisible barriers.
If Liu Yan is really king, then Liu Xiu...
This is contrary to what Cai Xuning thought.
Cai Xuning said earnestly: "I think your guess is right. After Lulin and Liu Yan gain a firm foothold, they will inevitably elect one person to be king. Only in this way can we better control the situation and prepare for the final battle against Wang Mang. But I don't think this person will be Liu Yan.
"Although it is said that Liu Yan is cooperating with Lulin, he is a foreigner after all, and Lulin's influence is stronger than him. Even if he chooses the right candidate, he will only choose from his own family. Even if Liu Yan doesn't want to, there is nothing he can do. And Lost this opportunity, Liu Yan wants to regain the throne of God, the only way is to seize the throne first after killing Wang Mang and announce it to the world; or kill the Han family who is king in the green forest... It can be done."

"Ash, you can't."
Liu Xiu did not directly respond to what Cai Xuning said, but instead spoke softly to Cai Xuning after a moment of silence.
He was soft and gentle, like a gentle remonstrance.
Cai Xuning couldn't help laughing.
"I'm not stupid, of course I won't."
Attack the Liu family?
hiss--
This was indeed completely out of Cai Xuning's consideration.
Liu Xiu's heart knot had something to do with this, if he still took action on this matter, let alone Liu Xiu, Cai Xuning would not be able to do it himself.
"Anyway, your family is safe now, you might as well think about yourself." Cai Xuning said.
Liu Xiudao: "Now there are green forests to attract the attention of the imperial court, but Jizhou is not eye-catching."
"But we still can't take it lightly." Cai Xuning murmured, he still remembered that there was a 90.00% possibility that Wang Mang was a time traveler.According to false historical records, the person who finally succeeded was precisely Wang Mang.
For so many days, he will never do nothing.
"Don't be afraid." Liu Xiu seemed to see what Cai Xuning was worried about, and said lightly, "It's almost there."
...
Xijing Chang'an.
Wang Mang sits high on the resplendent and magnificent throne, holding a document in his hand and looking at it.
Refreshing incense is burning in the hall, and the curling fragrance spreads in the hall, which makes people refreshed suddenly.The ground was covered with a large soft carpet, and the boots stepped on it almost silently.
"Your Majesty, this is a message from the Weapons Department."
The attendant quietly handed over a document.
Wang Mang took it and looked at it for a while, then said hello, saying that he deserved a reward.
Someone will reward them according to the rules.
"Your Majesty, the time has come."
I don't know how long Wang Mang watched it again, but another attendant asked for some time.
"Let them in."
Wang Mang agreed, and the courtiers who had been waiting outside for a long time filed in.
Although the emperor is now over half a hundred years old, his temples are a little gray, but his strong and powerful body is stuffed under the dragon robe, and he speaks with a lot of air. Totally dope.
Wang Mang likes to hold small court meetings recently, and he chooses the time randomly from time to time, making the courtiers tense all the time.
"Your Majesty, the Greenwood rebels are now attacking Wancheng..."
"The improvement of the Weapons Department has been gradually put on the agenda, and it will be ready in a few months..."
"There are alien races outside Youzhou who are ready to move, and the imperial court still needs to..."
"The two rebels, Red Eyebrow and Bronze Horse, are now..."
"Except for the insurgents, Jizhou Xinbo took back the rest of the county..."
One after another, news from all over the world was collected and discussed on court affairs.
Wang Mang said abruptly, "Among the Greenwood rebels, is there someone named Liu Xiu?"
This was said suddenly, and the person who was reporting back was stunned.The person next to him interjected: "Return to Your Majesty, Liu Yan, Liu Xuan and others among the Liu surnames of the Han family in the Green Forest Rebel Army are outstanding, but it seems that they have never heard of a person named Liu Xiu."
Wang Mang half closed his eyes.
He nodded and said, "Then kill the two outstanding ones first."
"Here."
Even if it is difficult to follow this order, it must be done.
Wang Mang said again: "The new blog just now... I vaguely remember that this happened earlier?"
The courtier hurriedly bowed and said: "That's true. Previously, Xinbo was divided in several places by the rebels, rebels, and county soldiers. The former prefect Zuo Gong and Bie Jiama died in righteous battles. Qin Yu consolidated this situation. Later, the imperial court transferred the new prefect Wang Ba from Zhongshan County to take up the post. As a result, he was mistakenly arrested and assassinated by a ranger who broke prison by mistake. Furthermore, the news just arrived today, it has already Take back the last two cities from the thieves."
"Death in battle?" Wang Mang sneered, as if looking at some inconspicuous plankton, "Forget it, so many things happened in this new blog one after another, and you all turned a blind eye?"
His words seemed indifferent, but as soon as he uttered them, he was sweating profusely.
Zuo Gong had already taken care of all those matters before, if the old accounts were to be turned over, there would be too many things to turn up.Regarding those things about Xinbo, they have always been covered up when they can.
Wang Mang has too many things to be busy with, and some unimportant things will be temporarily handed over to the courtiers for review, but they are all those things. Now that the new dynasty is in such a mess, how can the chaos go any further?
He is in control of the general direction, and now the situation is gradually improving, and the uprising posture in various places has gradually stabilized.
Give him some more time, this is the last thing to worry about.
But in this busy schedule, it is easy to make some mistakes.
Wang Mang pinched his nose with some headache.
No trace of Liu Xiu has been found yet.
Wang Mang's identity is too powerful, after all, he is the current emperor of the new dynasty, so he came in later than anyone else.When he stabilized the situation in the court and immediately pulled his hand away to look for Liu Xiu, he found that his "good partners" had failed many times, which frightened Liu Xiu into a frightened bird.
As early as a few months ago, Liu Xiu left Chang'an.
Wang Mang has already found out the person who made the move in Chang'an.
Coincidentally, this person is also named Liu Xiu.
His original name was Liu Xin, and he was regarded as a well-known Confucian scholar since the Western Han Dynasty, studying those gods and gods.Li Tong's father once studied with him.
Liu Xin was the first person to discover that Liu Xiu was in Chang'an. At that time, out of caution, he did not attack Liu Xiu immediately. Instead, he ordered people to suppress and attack him many times in private, trying to make Liu Xiu half dead before doing it himself.
After all, his body is powerless.
In Wang Mang's view, this is simply extremely stupid.
Why are you so tied up, why don't you simply tie Liu Xiu here?No matter how powerful a character is tied up, can he still have the ability to shrink his bones?
Liu Xin's surprise made Liu Xiu leave Chang'an immediately.
Wang Mang also arranged for people to follow him in Nanyang. After digging out the news from Liu Xin that there was no trace of Liu Xiu in Chang'an, he immediately sent more people to Nanyang, trying to catch Liu Xiu back without fail.
However, it was just the gap between the front and back feet, but within a few days of turning the year, Liu Xiu left Nanyang again, and has never been seen again.
