Chapter 137 Xie Wuji: Your governor is still so cunning

Did the three governors give Xie Wuji the King's Order?

Let's talk about Lingtai County again.

Xie Wuji came down from the shooting range after practicing riding and archery, and saw Wu Cong standing beside the shooting range waiting for him.Wiping his sweat, he asked, "Is there any news today?"

Wu Cong shook his head.

Xie Wuji frowned.

Hearing that the capital was captured by the rebels, Xie Wuji waited for a while, thinking that all the governments in the Central Plains would come to the rescue quickly after such a big event happened, and this matter had nothing to do with him.

However, more than a month has passed, and there is no news that Guangjin Mansion and Henan Mansion sent troops to drive out the bandits, as if the fall of the capital had never happened.

He couldn't wait any longer, so he simply sent people to the governor of Jingzhao and the governor of Henan, telling them that he was willing to send troops to serve the king, and asked them to excuse him.After all, there are many things involved in sending troops. He is in Guanzhong, and if he wants to go to the capital, he must pass through several states on the way.The passage of the army and the transportation of grain and grass all required the cooperation of the government along the way.If he refuses to cooperate, it will greatly increase the difficulty of sending troops and the cost on the road.

Jingzhao Mansion's side is okay to say, although it is not positive, but also agreed.However, there has been no reply from the Henan government for a long time.His people have been sent out for half a month, and they haven't come back yet.

Presumably the progress in Henan Mansion is not going well.

Xie Wuji was thinking about the capital, when he suddenly heard Wu Cong say: "General, You Gan is here."

When Xie Wuji heard You Gan's name, he was slightly startled, then withdrew his thoughts and said, "Let him in."

Not long after, You Gan came to the army tent.

Xie Wuji was waiting for him in the military tent, saw him coming in, and asked: "Young Master You came here in person, why?"

You Gan sat down opposite him, and said with a smile, "I've come to see General Xie, and I have three matters."

Xie Wuji said: "Say."

You Gan first took out an account book from his pocket, and handed it to Xie Wuji: "General Xie, this is the food and salary that will be sent to you this year. The convoy is outside, please check the list first, if there is no problem, send someone to take the count Bar."

Xie Wuji took the account book and read it.

The money and food that the Shu merchants gave them was not fixed, but based on the year.Sometimes when there is a good harvest of beans, more beans and less rice will be sent.Therefore, the things given each year have to be converted to see if the total amount meets their agreement.

Xie Wuji was also straightforward, after a general look, there should be no problem, so he handed the list to Wu Cong: "You go to receive and count." The implication is that there is no need to take out the abacus and calculate it one by one.He believed in the integrity of Shu merchants.

Wu Cong took the list and went out.

Xie Wuji said: "What about the second one?"

You Gan said: "The second thing is that I want to ask Xie Jiajun's brother to do us a little favor."

Xie Wuji looked at him, waiting for him to continue.

You Gan said: "I have a batch of goods to send to Xiliang, but there are many bandits along the way to Xiliang, and the law and order are chaotic. General Xie, if it is convenient, can you send some brothers to escort my caravan?"

Xie Wuji asked: "How many people do you want? When will you leave?"

You Gan said: "200 people, leave in the middle of next month."

Xie Wuji nodded, and readily agreed: "Yes. I will share [-]% of the profits."

You Gan choked for a moment, and said awkwardly: "General Xie, I just gave you so much money and food for free. Is it reasonable for you to charge me for such a trivial matter?"

Xie Wuji said indifferently: "It makes sense. The money and food you gave me is stipulated in the covenant, and it is guaranteed by your governor. This is an extra matter, and it should be calculated separately."

You Gan: "..."

Xie Wuji is different from a businessman. A businessman haggles with sharp teeth and sharp tongue.Xie Wuji just sat there, neither smiling nor angry, there was clearly no expression on his face, just one look made people dare not refute.

You Gan raised his hand to admit defeat, and said helplessly, "Do it, do it, and you will achieve [-]%."

He added: "General Xie is getting smarter now."

Ever since Shu merchants and Xie Jiajun formed an alliance, the two sides got along very friendly in Guanzhong.The Shu merchants provided money and food to Xie Wuji, and Xie Jiajun would often contribute people to help the Shu merchants.

For example, when Shu merchants expand their business, they sometimes encounter ruffians who come to disturb and make trouble. Xie Wuji sent dozens of strong and strong soldiers to help.When the troublemakers saw a row of gangsters, they immediately clench their buttocks and dispersed.

Sometimes Shu merchants have to take some difficult business routes, and Xie Jiajun will also send troops to help escort them.With the army accompanying them, whether it was bandits along the way or bandits collecting tolls, they all disappeared without a trace.

But thank you for all the help, and you have to earn some money from it.At the beginning, he only charged a small fee for hard work, but gradually he discovered his own value, and the price he asked for became more and more "reasonable".

Regarding You Gan's evaluation, Xie Wuji was noncommittal, and said: "You said three things, what else is there?"

You Gan smiled and said: "The third thing is to send a message for our Fu Yin—he hasn't seen you for a long time, and he misses you a little."

Xie Wuji frowned, his eyes complicated.

You Gan said again: "General Xie, have you received the order from King Qin?"

Xie Wuji was startled, and asked: "Qin Wang Ling?"

Seeing his doubts, You Gan couldn't help being surprised and said, "Didn't you receive any of them?"

Xie Wuji frowned slightly: "No. Who sent it?"

Yugan shook his head speechlessly.When Zhu Nao first brought him a message, he didn't really believe it, but he didn't expect that Xie Wuji really didn't receive it.This is too...

Xie Wuji looked at him silently, waiting for his explanation.

You Gan cleared his throat and explained: "Two months ago, the Guangjin Mansion first issued the Qin Wang Order to the world, asking the princes from all over the world to send troops to help suppress the bandits and rescue them. Later, the Henan Mansion also issued a second Qin Wang Order." Order. A few days ago, the Jingzhao Mansion issued a third order..."

Xie Wuji was stunned.

His news is actually not very well-informed.If he wants to know the news, he can only send spies out to inquire.However, there are several days' journey between Guanzhong and the capital, and with the limited number of spies, it is inevitable that his news will be delayed and blocked.On the contrary, it was Yougan who was in business, and his caravans traveled around, and local governments sometimes had to rely on these merchants to provide information.

Xie Wuji's eyebrows frowned immediately.

You Gan could see displeasure in his eyes, and said with a dry smile, "Maybe, they don't know that General Xie is stationing troops in Lingtai County, so it may not be that the official letter has been sent to Yanzhou."

Xie Wuji said nothing.If the King Qin decree issued two months ago was really sent to Yanzhou, even if it was delivered by crawling, it would still be delivered to him.

After a while, he let out a breath slowly and asked, "What does this have to do with Lord Zhu?"

You Gan said: "General Xie, the Governor asked you to send troops to the capital to serve the King, do you want to go?"

Xie Wuji was slightly taken aback, and looked up at him.He didn't receive the king's order, which shows that many people don't want him to go.As for his own thoughts?

He paused, "Of course I'm going!"

You Gan smiled and said: "That's all right. Fu Yin has a plan to offer to General Xie. If General Xie is interested, you can listen to it."

Xie Wuji said: "You say."

You Gan whispered a few words in Xie Wuji's ear like this.

Xie Wuji was startled for a moment, then laughed.

You Gan said: "With General Xie's ability, if you think about it, you can kill all the way and no one can stop you. It's just that it's really not worthwhile to go to war, and it will inevitably increase the price. I don't know what General Xie thinks about this idea of ​​Zhufu Yin. ?”

Xie Wuji was silent for a moment, then said: "Your governor is still so cunning."

He said again: "very good, I will use this plan."

……

After You Gan left, Wu Cong also came back after counting the supplies, and reported the result to Xie Wuji: "General, the count is complete, and it matches the account."

Xie Wuji nodded.

Seeing that Xie Wuji's eyes were not right, Wu Cong hurriedly asked, "General, what happened?"

Xie Wuji then told Wu Cong about Sandaoqin Wangling.

Wu Cong was also dumbfounded after hearing this, and immediately flew into a rage: "There is such a ridiculous thing! The governor of the third house didn't even know to inform the general, he simply didn't pay attention to the general!"

Xie Wuji also sneered.It's not so much that the Sanfu didn't take him seriously, it's better to say that the Sanfu feared him like a snake and scorpion, for fear of getting him involved in this matter.

Wu Cong asked, "What is the general's plan?"

Xie Wuji said: "Zhu Fuyin came up with a plan for me."

Wu Cong said in a daze, "Zhu, Zhu Fu Yin? What's the plan?"

Xie Wuji said: "You ask someone to send a letter to the three governors for me."

Wu Cong asked confusedly, "What letter?"

Xie Wuji ordered a few words like this.Wu Cong was taken aback for a moment, thought for a moment, and suddenly burst out laughing.

"Yes, General." Wu Cong said loudly, "This subordinate will do it now!"

=====

A few days later, Jingzhao Mansion.

"Fei Fu Yin, there is a letter from General Xie!"

Fei Cen said, "Xie Wuji? Bring it to me."

His subordinates hurriedly handed over the letter, and Fei Cen opened it and read it quickly: "...My heart is concerned with the emperor's safety, and I am willing to go to hunt down the thieves. Now I have been summoned by the lords again, and my army will fight with all our strength...Huh??"

The staff at the side hurriedly asked: "Fu Yin, what did Xie Wuji say in the letter?"

Fei Cen put down the letter and scratched his cheek in a daze: "He said that he had received the King's Order, and replied to us, saying that he would go all out to send troops to serve the King..."

The staff was stunned: "Did we issue the king's order to Xie Wuji?"

Fetzen was more at a loss than him: "Do we have it? No? No?"

Staff: "..."

They really haven't.

The reason why Xie Wuji was not issued the King's Order of Attendance was because Xie Wuji's status was quite special.Nowadays, most of the people in charge of military power are high-ranking officials from various places, but Xie Wuji is an army left over from before the restructuring, and he has expanded several times on his own in the past few years without the permission of the imperial court.That is to say, Xie Wuji's identity lacks a proper name.For things like this, Fei Cen skipped Xie Wuji out of conservative reasons and didn't want to cause trouble for himself.

But since Xie Wuji took the initiative to reply to the letter, could it be that he has received the King Qin Order from Henan Mansion and Guangjin Mansion?And also heard about his own order?

Fei Cen wished Xie Wuji could leave Guanzhong, shrugged, put the letter aside, and let him go.

……

Henan Province.

"What? Xie Wuji actually sent us a "Reply to Qin Wang Ling"?!"

Lu Guang was shocked and said: "Who issued the king's order to him?? Who???"

The subordinate asked: "Could it be Liu Fuyin and Fei Fuyin?"

Lu Guang thought about it, and it could only be like this.He was speechless: "Are they crazy??"

The subordinates said: "General, Xie Wuji sent someone to come to us for an excuse, he wanted to send troops to the capital to rescue him, it seems that he is really sure to wipe out the rebels... In that case, why not just let him go to suppress the bandits, and save money We put our money and effort into…”

Before he finished speaking, he was scolded back by Lu Guang: "Are you crazy too?! If this bandit is really suppressed by Xie Wuji, the court has changed its surname from Guo to Xie! What's the difference from now??"

He said again: "What kind of good thing do you think Xie Wuji is? He first slaughtered Xue's family in Yanzhou, and then killed his elder brother. How can he be better than Guo Jinli?!"

His subordinates were scolded so badly that they immediately died down, not daring to speak any more.

Lu Guang looked at the "Response to the King's Order" on the table and was really upset.

Although he didn't want Xie Wuji to participate, but people's answers came and their attitudes were clear, so could it be possible that he could be dismissed?He didn't have the guts to make such a difficult enemy for himself.

He couldn't help cursing Liu Song and Fei Cen eight hundred times in his heart.

It's not good to send the king's orders to anyone, but to Xie Wuji.What two bears!

……

Guangjin Mansion.

After reading Xie Wuji's "Response to the King's Order", Liu Song was stunned at first, and then furious.

He scolded angrily: "Lu Guang! Fei Cen! I hate you!!"

His subordinates were taken aback by him, and hurriedly asked: "Fu Yin, what happened?"

Liu Song threw the "Reply to the King's Order" over, and his subordinates were surprised after reading it.

Liu Song slapped the table angrily: "Like Lao Tzu's sending out royal orders, what are these two bastards! Why don't you think it's not messy enough to send out when you see anyone?!"

No one dared to speak up.

As soon as Liu Song thought that his coup was learned by the Governor of Henan and the Governor of Jingzhao, which made a very dignified matter almost turned into a joke, he was already very angry.And the person he didn't want to invite was invited now, which made his liver hurt even more.

If he had a chance, he wished he could strangle Lu Guang and Fei Cen to death!

The subordinate said: "Fu Yin, what should we do now? Can you stop Xie Wuji from coming over?"

Liu Song said: "Stop it! If someone comes to rescue him, who can stop him?"

After thinking about it, he could only shut up.Also, I don't want Xie Wuji to get involved in this matter, the best way is to keep him from knowing the news.But once he hears the news, he can justifiably fly the banner of King of Attendance, who has any excuses to stop him?

I am afraid that Xie Wuji has to be added to the matter of the princes from all walks of life working together for the king...
